Top 10 Sickeningly Heartwarming Commercials on YouTube – TopX Ep.33


[Music]
hello and welcome to tell effects where
we countdown the very best of youtube
i’m your host Dan and today we’re
switching things up a bit and taking a
few shots at the most sickeningly
heartwarming commercials on youtube
for this list we compiled a countdown of
some of the most popular and successful
commercials that really ramp up the
Kitsch better and tug at your
heartstrings a quick reminder as snarky
as things may get I’m making fun of the
brands and the ads not the concepts they
claim to represent that will make more
sense in a bit number 10 budweiser super
bowl 48 commercial pop you love kicking
off our list is the infamous puppy love
commercial puppy loves horse horse loves
puppy puppy keeps running back to horse
why would this make you want to buy beer
who knows but puppies are cute don’t ask
questions that you only need the light
things fun and low only Isis Sun when it
starts to snow so this is really cute I
admit but think about this for a second
this dude just got knocked out of his
puppy he bought the puppy and then he
loses it out on top of that he’s
traumatized by horses is he supposed to
console himself with a frosty Budweiser

number nine child of the 90s Internet
Explorer you might not remember us but
we meant in 90s our next ad follows a
very simple formula take a BuzzFeed list
and then completely rip it off you ad a
narrator and that’s it life moved a
little slower disks were square desktop
boulders had personality extra storage
space was just a zipper away being a
child of the 90s myself I actually kind
of like this at except it ignores one
key concept it’s for internet explorer
the black jellybeans of web browsers
there is only one social network but
most of your friends died of dysentery
the only thing buzzing in your pocket
was a pet until that died tail first of
all in the 90s everyone used Netscape
second of all they didn’t touch on
internet explorer’s best feature using
it to download another web browser you
grew up
so did win
number eight diversity and inclusion
love has no labels what would happen if
you took that sweet metal detector scene
from Total Recall and made a public
service announcement about it well you’d
probably get this public service
announcement which was shared on your
Facebook wall about 47 times but you
never watched it because you got the
gist of it from the thumbnail now this
is actually a cause that’s worth
supporting like a lot of the things
we’ll see today but if you think about
it it’s actually really safe it’s like
whoa gay people that’s a novel concept
how about the Jewish guy and the Muslim
guy do the striptease men make out that
will knock down some boundaries number 7
Ram trucks Super Bowl commercial farmer
this is actually one of the best
commercials will see today but that
doesn’t mean we can’t rip on it a bit
farmers have it tough but remember this
is not an ad for farmers this is an ad
for trucks and on the eighth day god
looked down on his plan taradise and
said I need a caretaker so God made a
farmer first of all this is a great
speech by Paul Harvey in 1978 dodge gets
no credit for that they get credit for
picking it which is about as much credit
as you get for a movie that you’ve
picked on Netflix I need somebody who
can shave an axe handle on persimmon
sprout shoe a horse with a hunka car
tire who can make harness out of a wire
feed sacks and shoe scraps who planting
time and harvest season will finishes
40-hour week by Tuesday noon and then
painting from tractor back put in
another 72 hours so God made a farmer
second of all and this is the big lesson
from today just because you agree with
the sentiment of the ad doesn’t mean
they’re not trying to sell you something
note at the end they say there’s a
farmer in all of us so that means even
if you aren’t a farm where you too can
buy one of these sweet ass trucks truck
it’s not included so God made a farmer
number six Hyundai a message to space
up next is an ad that set the Guinness
Book of World Records for the largest
tire track image in history yes what
better message to send to space then buy
an affordable Korean sedan and Stephanie
loves you whatever
are we really supposed to believe that
Hyundai spent millions of dollars to
write the world’s most inefficient text
message also how much would it suck to
be one of the other astronauts on the
space station nobody loves you Phil
[Music]
number five always hashtag like a girl
show me what it looks like to run like a
girl here up next is one of those ads
that tries to break down concepts of
femininity the idea is that young women
are asked to do things like a girl and
then their reactions are juxtaposed with
really young girls doing the same thing
young girls who supposedly haven’t had
their spirits crushed by society and all
those always adds that air to the 90s
that weren’t so progressive show me what
it looks like to run like a girl
[Music]
throw like a girl fight like a girl this
ad never really addresses the elephant
in the room I mean yes it is detrimental
to say that someone runs like a girl and
that’s kind of screwed up but I mean
that pales in comparison to being called
a tampon right I’m so sorry if I asked
you to run like a girl now would you do
it differently I would run like myself
you like a chance to redo it
[Music]
number four the unique connection
pandora jewelry
[Music]
like a lot of stuff we’ll see today on
the surface this is pretty sweet
children are blindfolded and then they
try to identify their mother out of a
lineup by touch and smell because the
mother’s touch is unique right wrong
again idiot because what the girl really
recognizes is that chunk of rocks on her
mom’s hand this is an ad for jewelry
that’s right all the love and tenderness
and unique perfume in the world won’t
help your loved ones associate with you
what you need is a big friggin ring and
a matching necklace and then maybe just
maybe your children will form a bond
with you because as we all know the
bonds between mother and child are
formed by material possessions
[Music]
number three dove real beauty sketches
you’re more beautiful than you think
this is yet another ad that seems to
dismantle the negative ideas that women
hold about themselves essentially women
are asked to describe themselves to a
portrait sketcher and then strangers are
asked to describe the same woman and
generally the strangers are much nicer
she was thin so you could see her
cheekbones and her chin it was a nice
thin chin she had nice eyes they lit up
when she spoke cute nose she had blue
eyes very nice blue eyes first of all I
could be ultra cynical here and say that
these strangers also knew that they were
being recorded so they were probably a
bit nicer but that would be really
mean-spirited and I technically already
just said it this is a sketch that you
helped me create and that’s a sketch
that’s somebody described w so yeah
that’s but worse it basically doubles
down on the troublesome idea that your
value is measured by your beauty but
don’t worry it’s not as bad as you think
it’s still bad though but we have
products for that we spend a lot of time
as women analyzing and trying to fix the
things that aren’t quite right and we
should spend more time appreciating the
things that we do like
number two half time in America Super
Bowl 46 Chrysler it’s half time in
America China’s got the ball but they
don’t play football so the joke’s on
them also there’s a flag on the play but
thankfully it’s the star-spangled banner
also to win you have to buy a car it’s
half time in America two people are out
of work and they’re hurting they’re all
wondering what they’re gonna do to make
a comeback and we’re all scared because
this isn’t a game America seeds some
hard times and nobody knows about hard
times better than a lifelong movie star
ironic that they got Clint Eastwood who
got his debut playing an American in
Italian movies and now he’s representing
an American car brand owned by an
Italian company time is circular after
all okay technically Fiat is based in
London but I thought that was clever how
do we come from behind how do we come
together
how do we win
to Troy showing as it can be done and
what’s true about them is true about all
of us say what you want about chrysler
you can’t deny the well of patriotism
this ad in fires and I’m Canadian and
like Clint says Detroit is leading the
way and showing us how it’s done welcome
back now to Detroit the fourth largest
city in the u.s. filed for bankruptcy
Thursday afternoon after struggling with
an 18 billion dollar debt well better
luck next season before we get to our
topic here are a few honorable mentions
[Music]
can until the tune didn’t have to face
your mother who knows calf for forte
loss careful
no no gelato
[Music]
number one thank you mom Procter &
Gamble we’re finishing things up then
add from bogs actually it’s an ad for
people who make toothpaste but they love
moms thanks mom
[Music]
see Procter & Gamble know that you would
never make it to the Olympics without
your mom heaping huge amounts of
vicarious pressure on you to win damn it
[Music]
now you can finally give back and if you
don’t medal in Sochi you’re walking home
from Russia
P&G proud sponsor of moms well that’s it
remember making fun of the brand’s not
America not women not your mom anyway
