No one really wants to be surprised at Uno's

Leaders from Glossier, Shopify, Mastercard and more will take the stage at Brandweek to share what strategies set them apart and how they incorporate the most valued emerging trends. Register to join us this September 23–26 in Phoenix, Arizona.

Uno's "Fall of surprises" campaign from Full Contact Advertising (seven short spots above) isn't particularly surprising, because we've seen most of these concepts before in other food and restaurant campaigns. As for the "fall" part, well, that's more accurate, if only because the pizzeria has managed to sink below its past level of suckiness. The pumpkin's pervy "Hell-ooo, short ribs" catchphrase would make his fellow gourd in Caribou Coffee's spots blush. And the tart-tongued cranberries probably flunked the audition for this summer's Raisinettes brand-extension campaign.
