I'm all for goofy ads. They can be quite a fun time-killer, and since I haven't watched TV in ages (okay, the Olympics... but mostly on streaming CBC) don't get to see many. But this wasn't really funny. More sort of forced, like Bill & Jerry know they can't be 'normal people' (whatever those are) but want to be seen to be trying to be like them, and failing at it... maybe the punch line commercial will make that funny, somehow. For now, these two commercials just seem a bit lame, if well produced. Grandma does all the work; hilarious. Leftover dinner; what a hoot. Toenail clipping in the girls pink bedroom; wow, what will they think of next. Sorry guys, but this brand of comedy isn't really all that funny. Especially considering the amount they probably spent on it, compared to any old Seinfeld episode. M$ is getting hosed here, that's the biggest joke.
