  On a tangent, that ad was such a terrible missed opportunity. Here you have scored this exclusive deal with this impossible international crossover genius comedic rapper, and you sell a pretty delicious product, and all you can think of is a 1950s-style cutesy celebrity endorsement format. Ending with a very pre-Don-Draper, wink-and-a-fake-smile, generic-celebrity-worshipping closer "If Psy does it, we all go nuts." I really liked Gangnam Style the first 30 times, and I enjoy Wonderful's pistachios, but this was perhaps the most unimaginative intersection of the two possible.

    ....and you just said the manufacturer's name on a unrelated forum, so their ad campaign was a success.

      So it's impossible to discuss unsuccessful ad campaigns, as doing so immediately makes them successful?

        If you're thinking/talking about the ad campaign, it wasn't unsuccessful. The unsuccessful ones are forgotten.

      Funny, i'd seen that ad a dozen times and up until now i had no idea who made the ad.
