Post by: LadyVirginia on October 23, 2013, 12:35:35 PM: I see something like that and wonder why can't all commercials be better? Some I see are as bad as they were decades ago as if no one has learned how to do them any better.

I watch some and think a group of people in a room decided THAT'S the best one. We want that one. Makes you wonder what the other choices were.

Goes back to your question: who thought this was a good idea? It's gross.

1)There's a room full of people who are saying yes, yes, this is great. I'm thinking these are people who still go to movies targeted for 12 year old boys and think The Hangover III was a cinematic moment.
2)These same people think that this will appeal to their customers. That is what they think of their target market.

I saw a commercial a week or two ago for Kmart where the kids were rapping about putting their clothes on lay-a-way. Couldn't half understand them though I got the gist of it. But I thought this is Kmart's market and they know that's how they talk. It was sad.

"She grew up in the back of my Subaru" -- talking about girl child.

Lady, if your kid "grew up" in the back of your damn car, you're doing it wrong.

Jeez. Who falls for this crap?

A LOT of women I bet.

I know too many parents who have all the necessary parental "accessories" from the right clothes and activities for their kids to the super loaded, busy schedule they lament all the time. But I wonder how much child raising and being a parent is really going on.
