The rapping Southwest commercial plays exactly into the type of passenger Southwest is looking for. It is a very smart ad campaign. But, for now, nobody knows for sure if it is a success.
I knew when I posted that someone would immediately make the point that I remembered the Head On commercial, therefore it was effective. That's why I went on to say that I would not, nor have I, ever purchased Head On, expressly because of the commercial.
I could give you a very long list of memorable, irritating commercials for things that everyone remembers - but nobody buys. Real genius would have been a Billy Mays commercial for WN. Oh well.
