Pizza Hut Unadvertising: Cynical or Clever?

by on August 30, 2009

I came across a video on LiveLeak.com today that purported to be “Jim Breuer Flips Out On Pizza Hut Commercial” – an authentic bit of behind-the-scenes footage of a commercial.

Jim Breuer and the Pizza Hut viral commercialThe video is entertaining if you take it for what it is, and I think that’s an attempt by Pizza Hut’s ad agency to create a viral video.

Good job. Good enough to fool the folks at LiveLeak.com, at least.

And I’d say they got the point across about Pizza Hut, because it’s the only Pizza Hut commercial I ever remembered 30 seconds later.

I might even chuckle to myself as I pass the Pizza Hut in my town on the way to one of the pizzerias.

It is funny. It’s got to be fake since Breuer has a reputation of being very easy to work with and it just looks set up. He sits in on a hard rock radio show every once in a while so I’ll see if this turns up in conversation.

Regardless of real or not I thought it was funny.
