The Chrysler brand's next phase of its all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica "Dad Brand" campaign featuring actor/comedian/writer/producer Jim Gaffigan launched over Father's Day weekend. Two new 30-second television spots — "Exhausted" and "See Everything" — broke across TV over this past weekend (6/18). Three additional videos — "Soccer" (:60), "Earn It" (:30) and "Kids" (:30) — made their debut on the Chrysler brand's YouTube channel. The "Dad Brand" campaign television and online spots can be seen here. Additional content created specifically from the spots is running across the Chrysler brand's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram social channels.

The five new spots can be seen below:

"Exhausting" :30

"See Everything" :30

"Soccer" :60

"Kids" :30

"Earn It" :30

The Chrysler brand launched its new "Dad Brand" advertising campaign for the all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica in April. The multiplatform campaign features the real-life dad of five Gaffigan – with his wife and children – leveraging various all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica features to improve his "Dad Brand" in a comedic, tongue-in-cheek fashion, while highlighting the unparalleled levels of functionality, versatility, technology and safety features of the vehicle.

The campaign puts a unique twist on the standard brand spokesperson campaign, showing Jim Gaffigan as conscious and playful with his image, acknowledging the ways the vehicle itself is helping him with the upkeep of his "Dad Brand." The campaign includes appearances by Gaffigan's wife Jeannie (Gaffigan) and five children (Marre, Jack, Katie, Michael and Patrick).

Season 2 of "The Jim Gaffigan Show" debuted on TV Land on Sunday, June 19 (Father's Day).

Jim Gaffigan is a Grammy®-nominated comedian, New York Times best-selling author, top touring performer and multi-platinum-selling father of five. Gaffigan's first book, "Dad Is Fat," debuted at #5 on The New York Times Bestseller's List in 2013 and remained on the list for 17 weeks. His second book, "Food: A Love Story," was released in the fall of 2014 and debuted at #3 on The New York Times Bestseller's List. In addition to his own television series "The Jim Gaffigan Show," widely popular stand-up comedy and best-selling books, Gaffigan has appeared across television, including "Portlandia," "Flight of the Concords" and "Bored to Death." His film credits include "Three Kings," "Hot Pursuit," "Super Troopers" and "17 Again." Taking a dramatic turn, Gaffigan costarred Peter Sarsgaard and Winona Ryder in Magnolia Picture's 2015 drama "Experimenter" and will next be seen opposite Naomi Watts, Liev Schreiber, Ron Perlman and Elisabeth Moss in the independent film "The Bleeder." 

The Chrysler brand campaign was created in partnership with Doner.
