Volkswagen is partnering with Target and
Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest
Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on
Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled
The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though,
with the site previously partnering with
Fiat for
several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
