Now see, this Barbecues Galore spot from Young & Rubicam makes a lot more sense than the last one we saw. Things that know you’re planning to cook and eat them should get mad at you for it.

Comcast’s amusing new “Rabbit” TV spot from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners gets a very clear point across: Comcast is fast. When its employees aren’t purposely interfering with your Internet file sharing, that is. Or falling asleep on the job.

According to Feed Company, the video was designed by Parrot’s agency GroundZero to raise awareness of a new law in California and Washington that bans the use of hand-held mobile devices while driving your car. Parrot, of course, markets hands-free car kits.
