[navysealdad]

This commercial was banned from tv within an hour of it being put on the air

[Paladin2]

Perhaps it seemed like a good idea while the originators were under the influence.

[misterrob]

Someone got fired for that one...

[seatrout]

I can’t believe that idea made it off the drawing board.

[mefistofelerevised]

Very cheap attempt at humor. No wonder dodge is bankrupt.

[Finalapproach29er]

The demise of dignity.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

That dude doesn’t look the part to drive a large truck in the first place. Just sayin’. ;-)

[GonzoGOP]

OK if i didn't know better i would swear that was one of the Saturday Night Live commercials. So what is the message? Dodge is for guys who are inadequate? I mean it is funny in a Beavis & Butthead way, but it isn't going to sell any product.

[thefactor]

oh come on. it was a 30 second episode of friends! i could see that airing on comedy central after midnight.

[2ndClassCitizen]

I thought it was a great commercial. Have I had one too many beers on a Friday night?

[Tucson Jim]

One of the only American commercials that are in the class of suggestive world-wide commercials. A little bit of humor, but...

I still won't buy a Chrysler product!

[svcw]

Sorry I thought it was funny.

[I Hate Obama]

Almost as bad as that Quiznos Torpedo commercial.

[Alberta's Child]

It may have been entertaining in an off-color way, but I can assure you that nobody is going to go out and buy a Dodge after seeing that ad.

That ad falls into a category that I call "too effective." The viewer focuses so much on the humor of the ad that they forget what the advertised product is!

I'm not even a GM truck guy . . . but I have to give kudos to the most memorable television/radio campaign of all time:

Chevy Trucks

[Tainan]

Great commercial!

Ya know what they say about people who “can’t take a joke!”...

[bigbob]

Well *some* of us think it’s funny as hell!

[T Lady]

A tad bit tasteless...but worth a couple of chuckles nonetheless.

[visualops]

I can’t decide if it was funny or gay.

[visualops]

Yep it was a bit like a SNL commercial LOL.
Maybe that was the idea. But would not sell any product I agree.

[RGSpincich]

Conservatives are just so...conservative. Lighten up, it’s about the guy eavesdropping not the innuendo.

[bruinbirdman]

"Someone got fired for that one..."

Someone went bancrupt for that one . . . . .

yitbos

[reagan_fanatic]

I thought it was pretty funny.

Then again, maybe that’s why Miss Manners won’t return my phone calls...

[CodeToad]

If Obama can nominate a racist Hispanic to the Supreme Court who hates whites, this commercial is no biggie.

[Krodg]

I thought it was funny. As a woman, I’m more offended by commercials with skimpy clad females that probably have only seen the backseat of a car.

[FourPeas]

Definitely gay.

[Kimmers]

I was in the middle of a Bourbon and thought it was pretty darn funny......

[12Gauge687]

A Marine friend sent this one to me over two years ago. He thought it was someone’s attempt at satire at the time. Of course, it could be a Canadian commercial since half the trucks in Ontario seem to be Dodge.

There’s another ad out there called, “Toyota Bait” which was pretty funny. Supposedly, it played in Europe.

[Lancey Howard]

That’s hilarious!

[Migraine]

The author of that one had “the eye”. I was watching Leno last night. They had “the eye”, too. It is getting ridiculous.

[Migraine]

I can’t decide if it was funny or gay.

Flat out -- you're right to notice. It's all over the tube now, everywhere you look.

[SwatTeam]

Yeah what you said, me too.

[BufordP]

2CC!!! I’m telling Mom what you said!

[He'sComingBack!]

Still more evidence I made the right decision in disconnecting the cable in 2000.

[dangerdoc]

bump

[patriot08]

From a lady’s point of view; that commercial was disgusting@

[visualops]

Yes there is a preponderance of gay crap in commercials. It’s disgusting.

[Future Snake Eater]

Same here. That was damned funny, especially the last part.

[gargoyle]

...Great commercial, question, who banned it? Why? Uppp, standards and practices. Next question, These moron Telly producers have standards? Wait a minute Gar. You don’t understand our audience! What do you do, grow them on FOOKIN FARMS? MMMMOOO,EHEEHEHE...

[linn37]

It was funny.

[restornu]

It may have been entertaining in an off-color way, but I can assure you that nobody is going to go out and buy a Dodge after seeing that ad.

Those who amused by this levity in our culture fail to recognize this is why we have lost what was once greatness now just dross.

23 Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.

A double minded man cannot walk up right!

Someday I pray our minds will not be seduce and our hearts will belong to the Lord.

[restornu]

There are lot of gay over tones in commercials now days.

It is always expressed in potty talk.

here is an example

“Five....five...five dollar foot long...”

[Chgogal]
