'''Mr. Van Brunt''' is an advertiser, owner of [[Van Brunt & Churchill Ad Agency]].

== History ==
When the advertisements in [[Springfield]] came to life, [[Lisa]] discovered that the mascots came from [[Van Brunt & Churchill Ad Agency]], and she made a visit to them, where Mr. Van Brunt decides to write a song for {{Ch|Paul Anka}} to make the people stop watching the ads.

When advertising mascots came to life and went on a rampage through [[Springfield]], [[Lisa Simpson]] noticed an [[Van Brunt & Churchill Ad Agency|ad agency]] copyright stamp in [[Lard Lad]]'s footprint and went to the agency to see if they knew how to get rid of the monsters. Mr. Van Brunt told her that advertising goes away if people stop paying attention to it, and what she needed was a catchy jingle to make people stop looking at the monsters. After a couple of abortive attempts at writing a jingle, the man told Lisa it would sound better coming from {{Ch|Paul Anka}}.
