This spot by Widene + Kennedy for Coca-Cola shows that ants aren’t the only bugs that know how to ruin a pic-nic. It also shows that insects are not just shockingly adept at orchestrating a successful and multi-faceted heist, they’re also very good at stealing Emmys. This commercial beat out spots like Hulu’s alien Alec Baldwin for the win.
