I was sorting through the videos in COH Tube and found this great old video by Ashcraft that starts with BABs and Castle getting booted from a bar, and they decide that working is hard. It doesn't have any great jaw-dropping animation, but just watch it. It put a smile on my face which was sorely needed.

For the curious the song is from the film adaptation of the musical "My Fair Lady".

I remember that CoH video as well, it was very well done.

Ashcraft's work was always top notch. I especially love the Boom De Yada! ones.

Okay, that made me grin... Poor Jimmy, though. 'Poor guy's just doomed.

Yes!

The other day, I sought it out, as it was my favourite CoH video. Ash did a great job!



Thank you, Champion.

The ad begins with two astronauts in low Earth orbit looking at the planet and chatting, before breaking into the song. They followed the ad up a year later with a continuation featuring many new hosts/cast from other shows.

Both of the ads can be seen back-to-back here. Higher quality versions can be found here: 2008, 2009.

The Discovery Channel then asked fans of the videos to make their own versions using the lyrics/soundtrack for whatever they want. Many fans uploaded theirs' to youtube including versions featuring Minecraft, Halo, WoW, TF2, and other games. Ashcraft happened to do City of Heroes.
