So the creatives on the Capital One account just execute what the clients write? Correct? I can’t think of a cringier (if that’s a word) campaign in the last 5 years. It’s the reason why my family thinks they can write commercials too.

They probably can do a better, less cringier job.

There’s definitely a formula to capital one but how is that so different then so many other large corporate commercial brands? Liberty mutual, Burger King BK have if your way, Flo from progressive, AT&T girl, every perfume ad ever made…like seeing people travel and ending in the same tagline is really the cringiest ad you’ve seen lately?
