Summary:
This commercial uses little deceptive wording but does make use of fine print about the “free” offer that some people may find somewhat deceptive.
The music is “Home Sweet Home” by Motley Crue
I think the Mom, Judy Greer, played Jennifer Lopez’s assistant in ” The Wedding Planner”………thanks…….Mary
I think Chuck is schizophrenic and Gordon is his other/opposite personality. That’s why Gordon’s appearance is practically void of all color, he just shows up, and has no
respect for Chuck’s personal space. He owes Chuck money for multiple pizzas because Chuck is agreeing to split the cost of the pizza with himself. The rest of the family just plays along because Gordon has been part of the family since Chuck showed up with him as an imaginary friend when he was kid. (Hence the reason Chuck still lives at home.).
I think I may need to step away from the TV for a while.
This is a great site btw. It’s nice to have a place to find out that one for 19.95 plus two free (plus S&H) totals $50.00. “they” make you fill out two pages of information just to be able to get what the real total on the order. I stopped even trying to order anything if the ad even mentions shipping on those multiples for the price of one.
p.s.
(I think Chuck has his father’s nose and his mother’s Eyes)
I love your interpretations.I never noticed that but you know I think you hit the nail right on the head!
