Speaking of things that would have been perfect parody-commercial fodder...Kevbo1987 @ Mar 13 2004, 03:32 PM wrote: and they advertise those Kidz Bop CDs all the time
I remember once seeing such a commercial for PH. Don't remember what channel it was on, though. I can't say for sure if it was on MTV, Nick or VH1 since I rarely ever watch those channels.Kevbo1987 @ Mar 13 2004, 09:32 PM wrote:That would have been an excellent idea. They could have made an ad and ran it on MTV, VH1, and Nickelodoeon, as well as others. My brother watches Nick all the time, and whenever some new teen act pops up, they have commercials for their albums. Aaron Carter and Play have both had ads, and they advertise those Kidz Bop CDs all the time. Aaron Carter and Play have both had success, and the Kidz Bob Cds have been bestsellers. If Volcano had advertised Poodle Hat on Nick, it would probably would have gone Platnium a long time ago. Getting Al on the Nick Magazine Birthday Bash was simply not enough advertising for the kid market. That's only one show, and it probably wasn't that popular. An ad that would run during popular shows such as "SpongeBob SquarePants" or "Fairly Oddparents" would have been much more effective.CatraDhtem @ Mar 12 2004, 01:47 AM wrote: Why not in lieu of a video make a quickie TV commercial?
That's probably where I saw it too, since I watch Comedy Central regularly.weird_el @ Mar 15 2004, 03:00 AM wrote: In the days immediately following Poodle Hat's release, I'm pretty sure I saw an ad for it on Comedy Central.
Ok, so there was a PH commercial. I thought I was just misremembering hearing about the RWS one.weird_el @ Mar 14 2004, 09:00 PM wrote: In the days immediately following Poodle Hat's release, I'm pretty sure I saw an ad for it on Comedy Central.
