The Friendly Skies!
"At the airport now. Today's lunch was french dip at the 5th Ave club. Very tasty."
After having criticized Old Navy last year at this time for their "Christmas Carolers" commercials, the editors want to give props to them for one, and only one, of this year's ads. We refer to the "Gifties" spot (is that that Chinoweh (sp?) actress from "The West Wing"?) where they are doing a musical number, and the paranoid hostess grabs the director and issues a litany of complaints, including "I think Mock Turtle is mocking me!" (which, the camera shows) is the case. But we find those Radio Shack "Red Chair" ads (where the people line up to tell loved ones what they want) even more strangely compelling. "Suzy-Q, where are you?!"
