Workers in an office are around a conference table talking about whether or not they should switch to FedEx Ground because the name implies it might not be as fast because of the word "ground." Everyone has a name that mirrors what they do (Bob bobs his head, Eileen leans, Joy is joyful, Harry is hairy, etc.). This has one of my favorite exchanges of the night:
"We all agree that FedEx Ground is fast, despite the name 'ground.' "
"Well said Mr. Turkeyneck."
The best FedEx ad of the night, and definitely in the top 10 so far.

Bob reminded me of Aintitcoolnews' Knowles minus 100 kgs. That's all.

Yeah, I agree - completely lame. I didn't like this one as much as the other FedEx ad at all. It just seemed stupid and besides, it's been done much better before. A big waste of ad dollars if you ask me.

I laughed the first time. I guess I thought the "Bob" character was the same character from all the erectile dysfunction commercials.
