Worst of the worst: teen-learning-center ads
Compiling a list of the most melodramatic teen-learning-center ads is like shooting dogs in a cage, but Tabloid Prodigy has done it anyway. (They opt for the adjective "douchiest," however.) Three of the spots are courtesy of the Huntington Learning Center, which helps photogenic teenagers adjust to cubicles well in advance of their future careers as purposeless office drones. The Sylvan Learning Center does the same thing, from what we can tell, but they also help kids who try to play Super Mario Brothers on a PlayStation 2. The rest of the ads are about what you'd expect, and by the way, none of these kids look hip enough to listen to Anthrax. They barely look capable of handling Paul & Storm. —Posted by David Kiefaber |

Wow, that site was...disappointing. The commentary was weak, one of those commercials was obviously fake (the Super Mario one you mentioned) and two of them were of worthless quality.
Slow day at AdFreak?

Oh God ! I can't understand how agencies are still able to propose such stupid and unoriginal campains for their clients...
Do they know something about original ads, alternative marketing, and buzz ?
Sorry for my bad english, but I needed to express myself, working in an alternative marketing french agency, I can stand that kind of ads...

Yeah, that wasn't as bad as I was expecting. The premise was corny, but I was expecting way worse acting.
