This time "happiness" has taken the form of giant, and quite disturbing Hyenas. I find the advert creepy. It's for Cadbury Snaps, which are new I think, and look quite nice, but I won't buy them, for fear of a giant hyena appearing.

I bought them in Asda before the ad was shown. They are like chocolate Pringles. You are lulled into a false sense of security as they are only half a weight watchers point each so you think they're quite harmless. You have to eat at least 20 of them at a time though. Had I seen the ad first I think I'd have been well put off.

It really is a dreadful and scary advert. "Your happiness loves Cadbury"? Aren't they making it look much more like "your piggy greed"?

We should do a sweepstake on what the next 'Happiness' is going to be. Everyone buys a Cadbury's product, and the one who's guess is closest (as judged by the person who can prove the greatest level of animal expertise) wins all the chocolate.
I'm thinking it'll be a bear.

It's both a bush baby and a badger!
These are truly the greatest ads of our times.

The bush baby really makes me giggle.
I quite like these adverts. The original one with the lepoard thing playing the guitar and singing was fantastic. But I agree they've killed it.

They are the most ugly looking "animals" ever. They've got nothing on a Red Panda.

According to Stephen Fry on Qi, Pandas are not racoons after all but are in fact as everyone presumed bears. Which means they aren't related to Red Pandas at all.
I'm gutted.

I don't care whether it's a sort of panda or a raccoon.
It's still the cutest animal in the world.

Surely the Happiness ad with the man and the sheep and the bombing across the office is the best ad ever.
Until the next one comes along.
