Say it Ain't So!

Today is indeed a sad day. I read on Adweek today that the ad agency responsible for the wacky and weird ad campaign for Skittles no longer carries them as a client.
After some corporate reshuffling on the part Mars(yes, as in the chocolate bar), as of September a new ad agency will be taking the helm of the Skittles commercials.


Which sucks. This campaign has featured some of the most hilarious ads over the years, some of which are definitely personal favourites. Skittles was putting out commercials that were “Weird For No Reason” far before it was the norm.

These spots have always been delightfully weird, and I'll really miss them. Lets relive the glory days together. Here's a few of my favourites, enjoy!
