I can't say I actually like any commercials, but at least the kids in these just act like kids. Most commercials with kids have them make snarky adult comments, like they're the smartest people in the room. Telling Aaron Rodgers he doesn't have a real job, the e-trade baby, etc. Those make my blood boil for some reason.

Adults being dicks to kids is hilarious

I dont like any of them, especially the tree house one.

The guy gives off a pedo vibe. He is sitting there questioning all these kids about what they like so he can use it later on to get them into his free candy van

The "two things at once" one is obviously tops, but I really liked the pickle roll one as well. It had me LOL'ing IRL.

In the advertising world, companies like this have spent millions to make parents think they should give a crap about how big-dollar purchases affect their children's social status.

Encouraging parents to let their kids become the little turds (cleaned that up) these kids are, insures many shallow, image conscious, "my family is the coolest", parents for the future.

It's a little like making the texting guys at the ballgame the witty, "cool" people. This phone company is just trying to get in on them earlier.

People who don't think for themselves, & worry too much about what others think, will be sucked in very easily.

If the guy didn't look like a pedophile I'd probably like them more. He just stares at the kids the whole time, emotionless.


That's the point. It's supposed to be a serious product survey type thing.

These commercials are hilarious. Kind of a spin of kids say the darnedest things. Love them.
