If there’s one thing that we love here at hecklerspray, it’s Gerry Anderson animation. You know? With the puppets and whatnot. All rickety, gadding about getting into highly ’60sified’ (it’s a word, look it up) shenanigans with their strings flapping about behind them.
Even if you’re not getting the picture, you’ll probably be familiar with Team America: World Police by those ‘geniuses’ behind South Park. Same principle. But not as good.
Another thing that’s the same principle as a Gerry Anderson animation but not nearly approaching being not quite as good as are the awful puppet bimbos in the latest incarnation of the Diet Coke adverts. Designed to prey on the mentality and mindset of those of us who have grown up watching Sex & The City and slick romantic comedies where a girl from a small town makes it big as the assistant to some megalomaniac tosser with a God-complex (watch out for hecklerspray: The Movie, in cinemas this summer). These adverts are designed to go right to the source. The girliness.
