Super Bowl Ads Celebrity Style – Oikos Gets John Stamos To The Greek

Super Bowl Ads Celebrity Style – Oikos Gets John Stamos To The Greek in their 3rd quarter Super Bowl spot.  The ad has over 3 Million hits on YouTube and is Hulu – AdZone's 9th most popular spot over all.  The oversimplified spot features a classic Super Bowl stunt – "friendly" violence.  We've seen it all before (think Snickers and chest hair pulls and Sprint phones thrown at the face).  While the creative for the Super Bowl commercial is sub-par, the promotion for Stamos is invaluable.  John Stamos' current popularity is certainly debatable, but the guy is probably on the most famous Greek actors around.  Can you think of another one off the top of your head?   It makes sense for a Greek yogurt brand to align themselves with Stamos, but Oikos could have done a better job integrating some of Stamos’ personal attributes in the spot.
