I first caught this commercial the other night. It's ridiculous for so many reasons:
1. Gary Coleman, perhaps more desperate to make a dollar than ever before.
2. They couldn't have at least put a telephone book under Gary? As is, he can't even see the vents on the dashboard.
3. Pause the clip at the very end when the fine print shows. Take a look at the APR.
4. Take a look again.
you just made geoff very happy
ReplyDeleteYou mean because I love really high APRs?
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the G:TB motto?

Just so you know, it took a lot of effort on my part not to compare Mr. Coleman to the creator of this site. A lot.
ReplyDeleteRob, G:TB appreciates the 5-star review on the GNUru list, but can do without the commentary.
ReplyDeleteWould this commercial work as well if Emmanuel Lewis were starring in it? I say no.
ReplyDeleteActually, is Emmanuel Lewis still alive?
teej, your cryptic comments confuse me. i'm not familiar with your modern ways. i'm just a simple unfrozen caveman.
ReplyDeleteNo, no, no...Mayhugh is the unfrozen caveman.
ReplyDeleteWrong again. The REAL unfrozen caveman in Greg's dad.
ReplyDeleteI think of this "commercial" more as a public service announcement to keep your young ones out of the child-actor scene. I mean the Gary Coleman route is even a best case scenario...
ReplyDelete'Lil Dennis will not be exploited in such a way.
ReplyDeleteUh, yeah, have fun with this?
ReplyDeleteI would like to murder most of the Yankee relievers.
