Funny HBO Ads Highlight Awkwardness Of Watching Sex Scenes With Parents
Nothing gets more embarrassing than watching a sex scene on TV with your parents around. Based on this insight, HBO has come up with this hilariously clever campaign for HBO Go, it’s subscription-based streaming service that lets you watch your favourite shows on your iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Android, Samsung, Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Chromecast, Kindle Fire and Roku.
The seven-commercial campaign depicts various scenarios in a family of four where the two parents (unintentionally) make things awkward for their young-adult son and daughter every time there’s a raunchy scene on TV. The commercials capture the embarrassed reactions of the kids followed by the line “Might be a good time for HBO Go”. The campaign will run on HBO’s YouTube channel, Twitter account and BuzzFeed. The agency is SS+K. Check it out below.
