Bill Hader has been tapped by Volkswagen to shill their 2011 Jetta, Tiguan, and Touareg models, and the resulting spots are… surprisingly funny.
The web series, titled Inside the VW Academy, features Hader and “vehicle expert” Danielle Gumro in a total of eighteen videos that mix scripted and improvised comedy with cold, hard Volkswagen facts.
SNL writer John Mulaney is on hand, providing the voice of a VW executive (and presumably assisting with witty dialogue).

I think John Mulaney and Bill Hader are incredibly hilarious when writing together, and these are perfect examples. They are all funny, and even when a gag seems funny, they keep with it, and it pays off by the end.
Enjoy!
