The ads are both humorous and cross promotional, reminding people of the famous, funny anchorman character as a sequel is set to come out in the next few months.
The ads are also a great example of creative concepting or a deconstructed ad. Taking a product, the Dodge Durango, and making it a car ad without being a traditional car ad. The car never moves, but gets a ton of face time with the audience as it sits front and center on a sleek and clean stage. It is more about getting exposure rather than direct sales and with the hilarity of Ron Burgundy’s pitches, which include highlighting the horsepower and glove box, the audience is sure to remember the ad. They can then go to other media channels to learn more about the car.
A number of spots were produced with various endings and punchlines. Enjoy a few of our favorites below…
