WTF Dept: New “Huggies Little Swimmers” Ad

TV ads! Remember them? Yeah, don’t see too many anymore what with the Tivo and the DVR and the YouTubes and the Hulu and the whatnots.
But this one caught my eye…mainly because it’s one of the weirdest and most warped pieces of advertising to come along the pipe in a while — and they’re selling diapers!!
Is this thing ironic or accidental or just a strange misfire? What’s with the creepy, Cabbage-Patch-Kid-on-Adderall dolls? And then there are real people in there as the “parents”? But the babies are performing like in a water circus or something? I can’t make heads or tails of this. You make the call.

I wish I could erase that from my brain. Very odd and almost disturbing.

The puppets remind me of Team America, so I was expecting explosions and violence to follow. Damn.
