Priceless!

**Updated August 22 - If you're looking for the Mastercard commercial, it's posted on this post.**

Please tell me you saw this! During tonight's Lost, approximately 1:32 minutes into the two-hour finale, they aired a new Mastercard commercial with three little boys, probably in kindergarten. It starts with one breakdancing to "We Want the Funk." Then another boy joins in, followed by a third. It's all about "not caring what people think" as priceless.

Brent and I watched it no less than 7 times! It was hilariously adorable! We were both in tears! Did ya see? Did ya see?

I tried to find it on YouTube and MasterCard's priceless.com to share it with you, but I think it's so new that it hasn't been posted yet. I'll keep looking, though, because you MUST see it! I'm also on a quest to adopt those three little boys so they can keep us entertained with their smooth moves.

By the way, the end of Lost? Lame. I enjoyed most of the episode, but it was so anti-climatic.

Update 1: I've had at least 50 people find my blog today by searching for that commercial, so I know Brent and I weren't the only folks who enjoyed it!

Update 2: In one of my dorkiest moves in a while, I totally tracked down Mastercard's advertising contact to encourage them to hurry up and post the ad on their site or on YouTube. I told him about the plethora of folks looking for it and I also threw in some marketing-speak about the power of word-of-mouth and viral marketing.

Update 3 (August 8): If you're looking for the Mastercard commercial, please check out this post.

  1. I'll have to go back and check it on Tivo. With a 2 1/2 hour finale, I could not bear to watch ads. And yeah, sort of anti-climatic, but I got what they were doing. Kind of like the finale of '24'...not so exciting. Unlike 'Heroes' and 'The Office,' which had the best finale shows, IMHO, so far.

  2. i don't watch lost, but i am glad american idol is over so i can have my life back. :) and i was happy with who won. that sounds like an awesome commercial. i think those priceless commercials are so good, along with the dropped calls commercials... but the ads must not be that great because i can't remember what company they are for.

  10. I actually really enjoyed the episode Wed. While we eventually figured it out before the end, I was pretty satisfied with the story. I just wonder what will be next (who doesn't?). I just hope it doesn't get as lame as that Hydra Hatch storyline.
