Nope.

Not that one either. US television is so sanitized because there are so many pressure groups who expect to "get their way" (and often do).

THIS VIDEO is British, and may be shown in Canada and Australia (if the company markets there). But it would NEVER be aired on USA TV. This ad has absolutely nothing in it that would raise prurient interests. But, even though it shows a human being in an animal costume (and not a real animal), showing it would bring every animal rights group out of the woodwork to pound their pulpits in anger. It's a personal favorite of mine since the company name also happens to be my son's name.

One note. It takes about a second before the sound pops in.

Please pardon this brief threadjack. I notice you're from Calgary. As I understand it, a lot of Calgary is under water ... sending people "stampeding" to higher ground. Is the flooding there getting better or worse?

That john west ad was done in 2000 and 3 other ads ripped it off for the north american market (different products) - it was filmed in canada and the bear was done by Jim Henson's Creature Shop.

all the ads

The water is going down but we're expecting another couple of inches over the next day or two.

Here's a powerpoint presentation that a coworker sent...
