Hellish Love Match Ads

Satan and 2020 find a love connection in this ad from match.com

Most are familiar with the phrase "a match made in heaven" but the latest ad from Match.com re-images that phrase by offering a glimpse into what a "match from hell" might look like.

Building on that saying, the ad makes the argument that a match from hell is still a match. The ad follows Satan on his love journey as he matches on a dating app with someone on a dating app who quickly reveals she goes by the name '2020' -- naturally, the pair hit it off. Set to a re-recording of Taylor Swift's 'Love Story' the humorous and highly relatable ad entertains while reminding the viewer that that everyone has a perfect match out there.
