2020's Best Ads, Turbo Brain Dump Edition

If you're reading this newsletter, you're probably a pretty big ad nerd, and we love that about you.

But even the best of us miss some good ads occasionally. That's part of why we at Adweek spend so much time rounding up the year's best ads.

Given that it's a holiday week, though, we figure time is a rare commodity, so we've got you covered. My brilliant colleague Breana Mallamaci has taken our list of the year's 25 best ads and turned it into one convenient video.

So go watch all the year's best ads compressed into 3 minutes. And if you want to see more or (gasp) even watch the full ads, you can pull up our comprehensive list of the 25 Best Ads of 2020.

What was your favorite ad or marketing stunt of the year? Even if it didn't make our final list, I'd still love to hear about it. Let me know at the email below or at @Griner on Twitter.

Wishing you a short and unbothered week,
