Plantfoodclock,

Does the Folgers Christmas commercial show what white brother/sister dynamics are really like?

ChillDude69,

I don’t know if I’ve seen that one. But the Country Crock commercials show what non-abusive white marriages are like. Lots of small talk and occasional hand-touching, but not much else.

youtu.be/CKgKPGBa9EQ?si=JH7qla5miBDBAi5p, there’s a shorter version but I think this is the one I saw last time I was in the South

PrincessLeiasCat,

Wait - is that a SEQUEL to the one like 20 years ago?

I know about it because I had recorded some show on VHS and watched it a million times (as kids do) and the OG Folgers Christmas commercial was one of the commercials.

It was the same premise but the sister was a little kid and the brother was home from college IIRC.

Plantfoodclock,

I’d chalk it up to common marketing strategies based on family around the holidays.

That said, I really hope the one you’re talking about didn’t have the same sexual tension between the brother and sister. “I can excuse incest but I draw the line at pedophilia”

PrincessLeiasCat,

lol thankfully no, and here it is:

Plantfoodclock,

Well I stand corrected, the newer one is definitely a tribute to the old commercial considering it seems to have been a bit beloved. Except the newer one is also beloved by white brothers and sisters everywhere.

PrincessLeiasCat,

Since I have no brothers or sisters, it’s just meh to me lol

ChillDude69,

Jesus Christ on a whole-wheat bagel, man. The production values and acting in that shit were, like, OUT OF CONTROL.

Fun fact: the sister in that commercial is played by the daughter of Star Trek character actor Jeffrey Combs.

LemmyKnowsBest,

My that’s a dapper ginger though

ChillDude69,

Well, I created him with AI, so double no-soul. I guess that gives him some kind of unnatural, predatory magnetism, like a vampire.
