LG Goes UGC to Describe ‘Life’s Good’

For about $18,000 worth of electronics, LG is running a video contest where users finish the sentence, “Life’s good when…”

It’s a fairly interesting theme but the entries we’ve seen thus far have a suspiciously professional veneer and cheesy premises. There’s Young at Heart, Grandma Rocks! and You Reminisce.

It all feels very Full House.

This is a more than ample opportunity to blow LG’s minds. It won’t be hard. And the prize seems more than worthy – our LG 22-inch screen rocks well, and it only cost a fraction of that 18 grand.

We’d shoot for it ourselves but we can’t think of anything more imaginative than “Life’s good when somebody sends us a super-awesome ad that isn’t shrouded in press hyperbole or ripped off somebody else’s idea,” but that probably won’t warm Danny Tanner‘s heart.

UPDATE: The folk at LG have informed us that the YouTube videos we saw were promotional spots. See the real stuff here. There’s stuff like “Life’s good when your appliances work” and “Life’s good when you get retakes.” Sounds sufficiently jaded to be realistic.
