I hate Comcast with a passion and hate their commercials with a visceral passion. However – there is one exception. They have a series of commercials for their kid’s shows on demand. Basically it’s a number of commercials set in corporate settings (lobbies, cube farms, that sort of things) and the kids (probably about eight to ten years old) are all dressed in corporate fashion – pant/skirt suits, button up shirts, slacks, etc. The cubes and such are all scaled down to kid size.

Mm-hmm….
The new Mercury car commercials need to try some variety, the song is really getting annoying, especially considering they only play the same 25 seconds of it. The song is called “nth degree” by Morningwood. But, the best use of it yet is in the commercial where the tall lady with the square chin is with some nerdy guy. The commercial plays out like they work together.

Hah!
There’s some diet pill called Nutrisystem. There are testimonials on every commercial from some skinny people with probably photoshopped fat picture of them, and they all say something about how great the diet pill worked for them.

Commerical for Wendy’s Double Melt:
“Stuck in the middle with you…”
Guy is in the back seat of a car riding bitch between two hot girls. He’s eating this sandwich.
—-I need to point out what this sandwich is. Bun, square meat patty, slice of pepper-jack, bacon, oozy cheese whiz with jalapenos in it, bacon, patty, bun. Fast food oozy cheese with jalapeno slices in between fast food limpy bacon slices in between fast food square meat patties in between bread.—-

Intel Core 2 Duo
The only processor in the world capable of causing a hallucination so intense that you’re convinced that four or five of you are dancing amongst iridescent glitter.
Intel Core 2 Duo. The world’s best acid trip.

With all white meat clean underwear.
I understand that much of the entertainment industry is based on something that goes by many names such as “artistic license” and “suspension of belief.” But at some point, I would think that when you’re trying to do a reality based commercial, wherein the whole point of said commercial is for you to relate to it and say “Hey, that’s me, I should buy this product,” that you would want to do something that doesn’t require a stretch of the imagination.
