AceShowbiz - Super Bowl XLIX will only be kicked off on February 1, but already some TV ads that will air during telecast of the big game land online. NBC has released Super Bowl promos for its shows, including "The Voice", "The Blacklist", "Odyssey", "Undateable" and a new variety show hosted by Neil Patrick Harris.
The promo for "The Voice" season 8 features the coaches, Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Christina Aguilera and Pharrell Williams, in a "Mad Max"-style dystopia. Looking fierce in black ensembles, they challenge each other for the singing competition in a huge cage.
"The Blacklist" promo, meanwhile, sees Red walking on a street amidst exploded cars. "I love it when everything just falls into place," he says as the song "I've Gotta Be Me" plays in the background.
The "Odyssey" ad is designed as a video message from Sgt. Odelle Ballard (Anna Friel) who wants to tell everyone that she's still alive and is hunted because of a flash drive which she says contains "proof" of something.
"Undateable" pokes fun at another NBC show, "Chicago Fire", in its ad. It features the cast Chris D'Elia, Brent Morin, Ron Funches, David Fynn and Rick Glassman in firefighter uniforms getting hosed down by Bianca Kajlich and Bridgit Mendler.
