During the third quarter of Super Bowl XLV on Sunday, Fox is slated to broadcast a CareerBuilder.com commercial. The commercials for web-based services, such as this one, E*Trade, Cars.com, and Groupon, really seem to be ramping up at this point in the broadcast. Here’s video of CareerBuilder’s ad, featuring, of course, incompetent monkeys. Are they cute because they’re incompetent, or cute because they’re monkeys?
VIDEO: CareerBuilder’s Super Bowl 2011 Commercial, Complete With Monkeys!
Okay, going with, “they’re cute because they’re incompetent monkeys.” I find it interesting that they used the license place to specifically establish that this is happening in Nebraska. Have monkeys ever even been to Nebraska? It’s like trying to imagine a burrito in Norway. Does not compute.
Also, the apes are clearly not getting paid as much as the man, because the man has a fairly new cars while the monkeys are rolling around in beaters from the ‘70s and ‘80s. He’s one of the most well-paid guys in the company and he still wants out? He must deal with a lot of monkey business if he wants to... oh. OH! Monkey business, because they’re monkeys, and... okay, I’ve got it. Good commercial!
