ad deconstruction

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDIkpY6QsQU

This commercial relates to my life because I have a cat, named Shadoe and I have to buy her food a lot.Also in the commercial the cat is singing the meow mix song and I have always thought it was cute.
Repetition
Humor
Warm and fuzzy
It has Repetition because in all of their commercials a cat is singing the meow mix song. It has Humor because the cat is singing and that's not normal for a cat, obviously.Warm and Fuzzy because when I see a kitty it always makes me smile. This add would make me want to buy its product because it appears that the cat loves the food so much it sings for it.

Super Bowl-for media class

Well, i think they allow those types of advertising because the companies that paid for the commercial spot paid alot of money for that spot, so they should be able to advertise just about anything they want to. And just because advertising about something that is bad for your health doesn't mean they are forcing you to go buy it, if you buy it and are trying to look out for your health then it is your own fault, not the company that had the advertisements, and not the Super Bowls.
