Mio Animals

I love animals, especially giraffes. And I love innovation. And my husband really likes Mio. So why do I find these bizarre commercials so disturbing. I actually have to change the station when these come on and that is extremely unusual for ME (I'm a person who sometimes even watches commercials on DVR.)

The Mio animals, however, are so creepy I'm afraid they'll give me nightmares!!




Maybe it's because they are so elongated and instead of being humanized animals they look like some sort of alien hybrid. They just make me shudder!





These are exactly the kind of original ingenious commercials I usually love so I can't quite figure out why I find them as abhorrent as I do. Maybe it's because I love the naturalness of animals and that is completely lost in this animated concoction that populates these commercials. It's like they have dragged animal character down to the most trite human levels. No wonder it gives me nightmares. No self respecting animal would ever sink as low as a human!
