Tim and Eric Make “REAL” Commercials Now Too.

Tim and Eric are my favorite. This is a purposefully broad sentence because it’s a blanket term for a large grouping of lists that Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim are at the top of in my world of preference. They’re my favorite comedians who use a green screen in everything they do. They’re my favorite adults who often times pretend they’re children for comedy’s sake. They’re my favorite candidates for the next California governor’s race. They’re my favorite talent scouts, having found people like James Quall and Richard Dunn. They’d probably be my favorite relief pitchers for the Cleveland Indians. They’d probably be my favorite members of a 14 piece big band. They’re my favorite at virtually everything they do.

NOW, they’re very close to edging out Tom Kuntz (my current favorite) in the “favorite commercial director” list. Of course their premier foray in corporate soul selling comes by the hands of Old Spice, who not only sponsor some of Tom Kuntz’s greatest commercial work, but also come in a close second to Sonic as having the best commercials in the world. Here are Tim and Eric’s Awesome new commercials for Old Spice. It looks like “attractive black man without a shirt, with large muscles, and a towel around his waste” could be becoming a recurring fixture in the advertising world. I sure hope this is the case, for the sole fact that that sentence would read hilariously in a college marketing textbook.
