Some marketing campaigns are plain genius. In an instant, we click with them, and yes, we buy whatever they're selling.

Right now, I can bet a lot of fails come to mind. I can think of Apple's 1984 ad and Nike's Just Do It campaigns.

Also, all the brands that used the white and gold/black and blue dress. By the way, it's black and blue, right?

But, this is Forensics. So, as there are great campaigns, there are epic failures. We love those.

In this episode, we'll see the worst marketing campaigns in history. So, let's dive right into it.
