UA-cam guidelines say they must 'note' the sponsorship in one of various ways. Just mentioning it in the video or in the title can be enough, or they can use onscreen text, but that's not required. Most legally important is that they notify the UA-cam company the video is sponsored, because it affects how the video is monetized and if YT can run their own ads during the video.
@@ellengrace4609 I work in a retail store and it always puzzles me when customers ask why something is so expensive. No one asks why something is so cheap. I like to say get the best that you can afford, not the cheapest you’ll tolerate.
I get it when the smaller channels from independent creators have to incorporate advertising into their videos, but this is an NBC TV show. Still, I'd sit through them if it meant they would not lay off the band.
This is going to blow your mind, but network TV late night has always had product ads like this. I mean, you can find clips of Johnny Carson doing product ads on the Tonight Show.
Something tells me you never saw Johnny Carson on the Tonight Show. Hosts doing sponsorship ads used to be the norm on most TV (and radio) talk shows. As far as the band thing, well, it's sad when anyone loses their job, but other than Fred Armisen occasionally showing up, this show has never really showcased the band or it's members.
@@kindabluejazz Something tells me you never watch the entire show and only see these clips. They showcase/introduce the rotating drummer on every episode, usually after the commercial break, right before the first guest.
@@acoupleofschoes Colbert and Fallon both fully showcase their bands during the show - banter talk, sound effects/rimshots, extended solos going in and out from every break, even full scripted and pre-taped segments. Colbert showcased Jon Batiste and gave him national attention, and is doing similar for Louis Cato now. Fallon showcases The Roots and Questlove all the time. I have no idea who's even in Seth's band. Does the show ever have popular bands as musical guests? Seems music has just never been a big part of the show.
@@kindabluejazz Because I only watch these clips instead of the show, I had never thought about it. But now you mention it, it IS weird we don't know anything about the band when Seth makes such a huge point to showcase the writers and crew. We know from Wally that they have to pay them extra money when the crew speaks; I wonder if that has anything to do with it
Right to the very end, I thought this was a set-up to a punch-line, with something the props department had cobbled together. There was no punch-line, and it was a real ad, for a real bar that isn't available in my country. Despite all of my ad-block software, I willingly watched a two minute, thirty seven second ad. I feel abused and violated 🤨
@edmer68 I was about to elaborate on why that is not how marking advertisement works, but it is just not worth it. You do you. Would be nice if you were less unfriendly and less unfunny in the process though.
That was KIND of gross. But I guess you've now made the full transition into being a youtuber, with ads like that... but without the legal obligation to explicitly declare it is an advertisement.
This is a throw back to shows in the 50's and 60's. You're probably too young to know this, but it was de rigueur for late night and variety show hosts to advertise a product in between guests/performances.
I, for one, welcome our new commercial overlords as long as they keep the show going. And feature Amber. And I guess that guy who hosts "Corrections" too, he's ok...
It's in the title - that's all that UA-cam requires be done. Behind the scenes they must also mark it in the upload, because that affects monetization rules.
These comments are so confusing. The thumbnail had a brand logo and the title was clearly marked. You didn’t need to watch if you didn’t want to see an ad, super simple.
So, I have to wait through an ad on UA-cam before I watch this ad on UA-cam. This was so much smoother than Frazier offering Niles some Pepperidge Farm cookies. 😮
I hate to say this, but I think NBC Is going to phase this show out. So Seth is going to cash in while he can. I mean he is not going to have a band after this week!!!
I could tell it was an ad; I am just feening for more Amber Ruffin content. Thrilled for her success and miss seeing Amber's comedy magic (p.s. her podcast with her sister Lacey is amazing too!).
All my Ad Blocks could not prevent me from seeing that KIND Ad. Curse you, KIND! I eat THINK! high protein bars (20grams of protein in peanut butter chocolatey goodness. To help me write my retorts. Mmm Mmm GOOD!)
Fake fact: Back in the day, when shopping at the Shakedown Street of a Grateful Dead show, if you wanted to buy snacks laced with weed you would ask if they were “kind”, as in “Are those brownies “kind”?”
Jimmy Kimmel and Guillermo have been doing these for years. WHy do people get mad? It shows a Kind bar in the thumbnail. What did you think this was? It is better than watching the usual ads.
I would like to apologise for the previous comment. Sorry to Seth (who totally wasn't reading Wally's cue cards over Amber's shoulder). He delivered the lines succinctly and with conviction. Amber's adorable riffing on inappropriate similes was on point. And also sorry to the lovely people at Kind. I literally just ate a Dark Chocolate Cherry Cashew, and I feel so much better.
Be great if they were organic and not made with almonds. ( Poison and water use. ) I really appreciated Maya’s 7th generation stuff, though hopefully they, as a company, addressing more of the plastic thing. Refill if facilities exist in your area. Sorry I know it’s just an add and people need to get paid. BOY, AMBER AND SETH REALLY MADE ME WANT TO BUY A KIND BAR! I wonder how long it’ll take before the algorithms can recognize sarcasm. Though I bet there’s a bit of programming going on in Pittsburgh.
That's weird, I had one of those today for the first time, needed something to eat while I was on the go. They seem to be international (like most candy) since I'm in Germany 😁
If we keep having Amber on to do more product placement, can NBC bring back the band? Idk why NBC is acting so cheap - they own everything that Disney hasn't already bought.
Snack bars are often targeted at your stomach to eliminate 'hunger pangs' and 'stomach grumbles'. Plus, they are promoting their nutritional value. Their product tag is "do the kind thing for your body, your taste buds & your world ®"
Anyone here remember Norm’s ‘bits’ for the Mangrate? Or Conan’s shameless, obvious plugs for anything? (My favourite was for pork-flavoured bourbon… funny how you Americans keep the u in bourbon.) This was horrible.
*Confused Viewer realizes it is a paid sponsorship*

Okay, i’m not thrilled that they had to do an “in-show” ad. But if you gotta do one, that’s the way to do it. 👏
Clearly, some NBC Executives and possibly some of Seth's writers have gone to the Ryan Reynolds School of Marketing
@@blairbrown4812 Yeah, kinda skeevy.
they have done these before.

Male entitlement
Amber & Seth? I'd listen to them read ad copy and still be happy.... Buuuuuut correction: youtube required ads to be marked as such.

We understand you have to make a buck, but CORRECTION Amber was right about all those things. It is like bread, a frying pan and a mystery.
A mystery wrapped in an enigma - with chocolate drizzle...
Kirkland brand nutbars taste better and are about half price of Kind bars. Buy them instead, if only to punish Kind for this lame attempt
Nature Valley Cashew bars are my favorite.
If the only brand you can afford is "store brand," it's time to give it up.

NOOOOO Seth! You just tricked me into watching a commercial. Please don’t do this! 😢
I had to watch a Target ad to watch the Kind commercial.

Oh no no no no no Seth, we're not doing this.
they've done similar 'sponsored sketches' in the past, including a few with Lutz shilling Heineken and fucking Sam's Club
1) I actually do like Kind bars. They are nummy.
2) Adding Amber to this segment was brilliant. 😂😂
Love these two together!!! 😂
To everyone upset about watching an ad:
1) The video is titled in part ...in Partnership with KIND
2) The KIND logo appears in the thumbnail
How much did they pay you? Cuz it wasn't worth taking that money.
I love Seth and Amber, and I love Kind bars, but I HATED this. 😵💫
In Germany this has a whole different - very dark - marketing campaign.
This feels like an SNL skit.
That was painful to watch. I know shows need money but the writing has to be better.
I think there's a huge potential for funny people improvising commercial advertisements.
Hey! I was scammed! that was an ad!! but it feels soooo good that Amber did it to me. 🥰
I hate to say this, but I think NBC Is going to phase this show out. So Seth is going to cash in while he can. I mean he is not going to have a band after this week!!!
I deeply regret watching this.
thanks KINDbar! can they have their money now?
This is how you do an in show ad 😂😂😂😂 Amber for the win.
If you promise to put Amber in all the commercials i will promise to watch all the commercials
I could tell it was an ad; I am just feening for more Amber Ruffin content.
Thrilled for her success and miss seeing Amber's comedy magic (p.s. her podcast with her sister Lacey is amazing too!).
For the writer of this ad, it’s your brain that wants the sugary drizzle and your digestive system that wants the nutritious almonds. 🤓
Hey Seth get the hell out of here with this kind bar crape. Nothing against kind bar just I don’t want it in my late night
I will accept your ads so long as we get some adorable Amber Ruffin takes!
She’s also the voice of the returning Purple M&M, sister brand in the Mars family
Amber is never on surprise inspection!
I don’t think she writes monologue jokes.
Ewwww. NO. Stop it.
Yay! More Amber!! 😂❤
Amber is awesome, fantastic in front of the camera and behind the camera. More Amber please
I love Amber. She and Jenny and Seth. My favs in that order.
Wow, product placement that's funny! :D
So, we doing commercials now? It’s a kinda funny commercial, but it’s still a commercial…
I thought this was a long setup for some punchline but then it was.. just a real ad? Since when is that a thing late night shows do on air?
Joke's on them, I was already buying KIND bars. They can't trick you if you're been pre-tricked. 😅
This was hilarious 😂
JD Vance grew up in Middletown, Oh just 14 miles from Hamilton, Oh home of Roger Troutman a pioneer of Funk
I got a targeted Kind ad for this video. This is a double kind ad
LOL I love them. (And I mean Amber and Seth, not the bar. I've not tried the bar, but it looks good...)
All my Ad Blocks could not prevent me from seeing that KIND Ad. Curse you, KIND! I eat THINK! high protein bars (20grams of protein in peanut butter chocolatey goodness. To help me write my retorts. Mmm Mmm GOOD!)

I hope this means the band can stay since theres in-episode ads.
Jimmy Kimmel and Guillermo have been doing these for years. WHy do people get mad? It shows a Kind bar in the thumbnail. What did you think this was? It is better than watching the usual ads.
That reminds me, is the Bad Sponsors segment ever coming back? Seems like the last one was three years ago. 😲
Don’t let John Oliver find out about this ad. If he does, he’ll insult KIND worse than his business daddy AT&T
This is completely insane but pretty funny
I watched an add in order to watch this ad. I feel violated
Was it a KIND bar ad? with Atsuko?
Its great when the youtube ad plays the ad within the ad in the show... just ad nauseum. Adam and the ads is my favorite band.
This was a teaser; they had Amber come out without talking about her coming out.
Oh boy. A skit that makes me long for Celebrity Baby Teeth.

weird commercial, but in a good way... If that's what it was, and not some serious pitch, Sona and Conan have competition!
And that’s how you justify your UA-cam Channel.
We better see more animal flubs with this KIND sponsor money
If paid partnerships let them afford to keep the band then I guess this is fine
Ok. It did make me laugh a little.
It's like the SNL "It's almost Pizza" skit with Kristen Wiig.
