Got Milk Shoots for Spanish-Speaking Audience, Succeeds too Well

Spanish ads are best characterized to us by the zany game show vibe and a sense of bewilderment. The latest Spanish ad for the Got Milk? campaign is no different.

Nobody at Adrants speaks Spanish but we’re not sure understanding the language would help much. It’s probably the cultural nuance we’re missing. Anyway somebody told us the ad is funny and everyone in the ad is laughing up until the end where some guy pours out the last of the milk, after which we’re sure all the world gets sad and desolate, so we were like, oh okay, it’s the usual Got Milk shtick. Neat. And very very weird.
