Wang Chung Parody Shows XFINITY is Anything but ‘Bor[ing]’

February 29, 2016
XFINITY

A parody of Wang Chung’s eighties smash hit, “Everybody Have Fun Tonight,” is the centerpiece of a humorous new XFINITY campaign that takes a playful jab at its satellite TV competition.

Produced by Goodby Silverstein, the spot repurposes “Everybody Have Fun Tonight” into “Everybody Is Bored Tonight,” characterizing satellite TV technology as limited and antiquated.

The original “Everybody Have Fun Tonight” peaked at #2 on the ‘Billboard’ Hot 100 on December 27, 1986.
