Liv and Oma

This commercial made me uncomfortable, but in a good way because it made the commercial entertaining. Also, it was a good idea to add all the extra information about it and then come back with a pun. They were creative to make “sling” a catchy world like “slinging” because it’s something better than what people say now which is “Netflix and chill.”

Loved the Sling spot. Megan Mullally makes TV watching seem risqué and appealing. I know I checked out Sling TV to see what it was about. It made me chuckle. It’s a commercial I like watching instead of skipping over. The use of “sex” to sell a product usually offends me, but this one was funny, I think because it is so in your face as to be comical, on purpose.
