The amazing Rusty Blazenhoff stopped by Archie McPhee yesterday to spread the gospel about Marshmallow Fluff. Rusty is not a paid spokesperson, just a true Fluff zealot who wants you understand her passion. She gives her tips on making Fluffernutters, then hands them out to happy customers. Watch a classic Fluff commercial here.

The popular rock band Gorillaz used our Yodelling Pickle sound on an album. We said it was fine if they gave it away to their fan club, but if they sold it on an album we’d have to talk again. They decided to sell it without talking to us. So, we made a commercial with it. Enjoy!

The original yodel was performed by Joe J. Thomas in exchange for a gross of Rubber Chickens!

Turkey Day from Jillian Suleski on Vimeo.

This commercial, made by the very talented Jillian Suleski, looks at what happens when a family’s Thanksgiving dinner is invaded by Archie McPhee.

We love it!

Here’s the pilot to a new series we’re considering. What do you think? Should we make more?

David Lynch made an awesomely strange commercial for his personal brand of coffee which you can watch here. The video above is our tribute to David Lynch. Bibo is not only pretty, Bibo love Bacon Lollipops.
