Pepsi vs. Coca-Cola: Diner 2.0

July 20th, 2010 / Comments (2)

It's been more than 15 years since the original "Diner" spot ran during the peak of the cola wars between Pepsi and Coke – a classic Super Bowl spot from BBDO that's still as clear in our memory as the day we first saw it. A brilliant story, well cast, with a great twist.

Fast forward to a new war between the low-cal colas – Pepsi Max and Coca-Cola Zero. Fast forward to a new agency in charge, TBWA\Chiat\Day, and a spot that seeks to duplicate the magic of the original.

How do you think they did?

Well done. And the short-order cook in this spot was the Pepsi driver in the original.
