Big Old Expensive Phone Company Ad
This is that great Comcast cable ad with the old phone company execs singing broadway-style. They don’t have it on Comcast.com, but they darn well should.
PS - I did a search and the ad was created by Goodby, Silverstein & Partners (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodby_Silverstein_&_Partners), which was apparently named “Agency of the Year” by Adweek magazine in January 2007. Couldn’t find any info on the actors, but they all do a great job.

One of many comcast’s ingenious commercials.

Whoever dubbed the lead has a great voice. I wish I knew his name so I could search iTunes for any CDs he might have.
Nobody said it was …
Nobody said it was accurate, just great, and it is. Artistically speaking, this commercial had all the goods: great singer, funny premise, good sports for actors, and a director and a costumer who understood who was being satirized. The goal of advertising is to make a product attractive whether or not it’s a good value. I do agree that Comcast definitely both sucks AND blows, and no commercial will change that, but they did manage to create a very funny, entertaining spot here.

Are you high? This …
Are you high? This commercial is just a bad attempt to be cute by saying it backwards, but its not even accurate.. and “B.O.E.” is just a retarded acronym to base it around. Maybe if they could do “P.O.S.” or something, but no.. its just retarded. Comcast’s phone service is way more expensive than BOE anyway as soon as you get past the 6month special period.

You guys might like …
You guys might like the commericial but in reality Comcast has the worst customer satisfaction rating out of any company/government agency in the country. They also monitor and restrict what you can or can’t do on the internet. Don’t be fooled by cute commercials, Comcast has been “the Big Old Expensive phone company” all along…
