 My favorite holiday ad is the Hershey's Kisses Christmas ad. It's been running for decades. I remember it since I was a really little kid and I remember it would come on after Thanksgiving or maybe right around Thanksgiving when I was a kid and I felt like Christmas didn't start until that one started. It's pretty simple. It's just somebody I think whistling a holiday tune, though I forget which one exactly. And then the palm tree lights up and it's this police Navigate. I feel like there was a Wall Street Journal story not that long ago that talked about why it has been around just for 25 plus years. And part of the brand marketing team said that it was just because every time they storyboarded anything else, they just feel like it's not as good. I do like the one with Santa and the M&Ms when they get scared. And the peanut M&M kind of nudges him and he's like, Santa, I think that's cute. I think my favorite holiday ad is one of the John Lewis campaigns from 2014. It's called Monty the Penguin. And in it there's this CGI penguin who is friends with this little boy. And you see the two doing all these really adorable holiday things together. Going to the park, playing together, playing with Legos. And then winter sets in, it starts to snow, and then the penguin gets really sad. And it all kind of plays out, you know, in the end really it's just the boy's imagination. And he has a stuffed penguin, but he finds his stuffed penguin a friend, a companion, and it's just really sweet. My favorite holiday ads every year are the Coca-Cola polar bear one. There's just something so simple about the ads and just them opening the Coca-Cola bottle at the end that signifies that people are coming together. And even that's pretty lame to buy into like an ad and a brand, but it's cute. Which is very warm and simple and just reminds you what kind of what the holidays are all about. This isn't necessarily one of my favorite holiday ads, but it's one that resonates with me. And that's past trucks. Which has aired every Christmas that I can remember and the reason that it always sticks out to me is because I was so confused by the fact that they would do this elaborate campaign for a truck that you would buy in a gas station. I worked a Group M and then they had, one of our clients was Hess trucks, so they had the trucks at the office and it made it easy to purchase there. So I would get it from my godson for like every year. And there would be the same jingle every year and obviously somebody's buying them because they were spending a lot of money to advertise it year after year, show after show, but I never met a single person who actually owned one. I never talked to a single kid who wanted one. His mother continued the tradition and she kept buying it every year and he's 14 now and every holiday it's on his Christmas list. So I'm not quite sure who is buying these Hess trucks and also there are no Hess gas stations anymore now. So whenever I hear that commercial I always remember that and how I am amazing godmother and how I started that tradition with two families. Take that! My favorite holiday ad is the Heathrow Bears which comes out every year and it's these bears that are coming home, flying into Heathrow to view with their families and the bears are just so cute and it makes me so happy to see them every year. My favorite holiday ad was one that premiered last year I think. I remember sitting in my honest living room with my whole family there and the Sam Smith song starts playing in the background. We all turn to get the TV and it's this Apple commercial where they have these two gorgeous dancers kind of spinning around and whatnot with snowfall everywhere. It's so, so pretty. I think you can't go wrong with a Sam Smith song inserted literally anywhere. My favorite holiday ad featured Biz Marquis for The Shack as Radio Shack had rebranded themselves at the time. He's walking around and he's taking pictures of what he sees and all he says is, Oh snap! Guess what I saw? Oh snap! Guess what I saw? My favorite holiday ad is the 2008 Macy's ad where celebrities associated with Macy's recite lines from the famous Yes Virginia, letter and it ends with the little girl whispering forever as she puts her letter to Santa in the mailbox and it just makes me feel all warm and tingly inside because there is a Santa Claus.
