New Starburst spot has a few wee problems
Oh good, another dumb Starburst ad. I needed more of those in my life. At least this "Contradictions" spot, by TBWA\Chiat\Day in New York, tries to include the product somewhere in there. But I'm having trouble figuring out what's contradictory about a Scottish Korean. That's more of an odd pairing than a contradiction. The albino lifeguard is a better example. Though of course he might work at an indoor pool.
