Hot But Off the Mark

It’s really quite amusing that GE can achieve top placement on IAG’s Most-Liked TV Ad list for one of its Ecomagination spots yet be vilified for another – it’s hotties in the coal mine spot. The first has an elephant gleefully dancing through a lush forest to the tune of “Singing in the Rain.” The second, shows hottie hard bodies cavorting with mining tools in a coal mine to the tune of “Sixteen Tons.” Two completely different approaches to achieving the same goal. One succeeds. One fails.
