I guess menage a trois suggestions are trendy in advertising these days. Recently, I wrote about HotelTonight’s “Threeday” spot. Now, White Castle is promoting its $3 Bacon Threesomes. These ads are juvenile, attention-grabbing, and also look like they cost about three cents to make.
Here’s a funny one from June. White Castle is selling an exquisite collection of 12 chicken rings for only $2.99! And with sauces! The delivery of the hostesses in this one is just great…particularly the semi-psycho eyes of the blonde. The blonde is played by Allegra Edwards, and the brunette is Elyse Brandau.
I love White Castle. A lot of people think their sliders are gross, but as Harold and Kumar showed us, “The Crave” is a powerful thing. That said, this Nibblers commercial is one of the most grating ads I’ve ever seen. Nibblers, yeah! Just no. Please.
IHOP. Along with Denny’s, White Castle, Steak ‘n Shake, and Waffle House, it’s a classic 24-hour restaurant that especially caters to the intoxicated. Come to think of it, there’s only a few times I can remember that I’ve gone to IHOP completely sober. This is not a terribly interesting commercial. It’s more of an “informative” type to tell viewers about IHOP’s 7 new meals for under $7. I love meat, but that Bacon-Wrapped Sirloin Steak & Eggs looks nasty…well, the steak at least. But it’s a real sign that I’ve been blogging for a while when the same people are popping up in numerous commercials. Who’s that girl? It’s Allyn Rachel. She’s also been featured as an acutely unaware Facebook user in a Toyota Venza commercial, and a newlywed frustrated by her husband’s McRib addiction.
