Mimes Speak their Minds

Mimes have gotten a lot of love in commercials lately. And apparently, the once speechless creatures are ready to break their silence.

The most recent mime appearance is in a Kia Optima commercial. The commercial brings up the question, why a mime? However, the other spots feature a yodeler and a comedian, who make the mime seem less out of place. Davidandgoliath of Los Angeles did the work.

The Discovery Channel also used some mimes to promote their Race 2 Replace Lance contest. The mimes co-star with Lance Armstrong and Steve Irwin, the crocodile hunter.
