Well, the Cookie Monster’s out of the bag. The Martin Agency is doing a Super Bowl spot for DoorDash directed by Michel Gondry via production company Partizan.
While the Big Game commercial is not yet available, this teaser titled “Paper Towel” provides a taste of what could be in store–starring Sesame Street’s Grover and Grammy and Tony Award-winning actor and rapper Daveed Diggs.
The teaser centers on a convenience store delivery of paper towels, which comes at a most opportune time for Grover. This ladders up to the bigger Super Sunday spot which features three first timers to the Big Game–Daveed, Sesame Workshop (with assorted Muppets) and DoorDash.
DoorDash invites consumers to join them in support of Sesame Workshop’s global educational media and social impact programs. Starting on Super Bowl Sunday, February 7, DoorDash will donate $1 for every order up to $1M to Sesame Workshop. This builds upon DoorDash’s $200M Main Street Strong pledge to support merchants, Dashers and local communities.
Below are credits for the Super Bowl work.

This trailer promotes Charge Around The Globe, a new adventure docuseries that follows record-breaking traveler Lexie Limitless on an extraordinary journey to circumnavigate the globe in an electric vehicle--traveling over 30,000 kilometers across six continents, all in pursuit of one world record. The three-part series on Prime Video in the U.K. showcases the capabilities of modern electric vehicles while immersing viewers in the numerous experiences and challenges Lexie encounters throughout her journey. As she navigates various challenges throughout her trip, Charge Around the Globe serves as a testament to the spirit of exploration. Ford, Wieden+Kennedy London and WracK teamed on the series.
The documentary aims to address the primary concern hindering many consumers from transitioning to electric: doubts about the range and capability of electric vehicles. As a 120-year-old brand, Ford looked to its past as inspiration for the switch that’s taking place today. Over a century ago, pioneering explorer Aloha Wanderwell set off from Nice at the age of 16 to become the first woman to drive around the world in a Ford Model T. Now, in 2024, we get to see Lexie, the youngest person to visit every country in the world, take to the wheel of the electric Ford Explorer, reinventing that historic journey for a new generation. Along the way, she meets extraordinary people, navigates difficult terrains, and faces the challenges of a constantly evolving charging infrastructure that puts her to the test.
“Charge Around The Globe has been the ultimate test drive for our new electric Ford Explorer. We took on every kind of weather and road condition and dealt with just about every charging scenario. The journey embodies the true... Read More
