Re: New Gain detergent commercial....

What is it with Proctor and Gamble. They ran a commercial for Tide for well over a year, making fun of Grandma's underwear and having Grandpa walking around without his pants.

 

And now Gain does this? Were the making fun of Grandma's underwear Tide commericals such a sucess they upped it to jock straps?

I saw it a few weeks ago. I was hoping it was just a mistake. Really holding up Grandma's underwear and making fun of it - how does that sell Tide detergent? And the jock strap? What is Proctor and Gamble trying to portray?

I saw it; it involves 2 boys trying to gross out their sleeping father by draping his stinky jockstrap on his head.  I agree; it's disgusting.


 

No, it was clean one right out of the laundry basket.  The Gain Flings commercial is proving how clean smelling clothes get by using Gain. 

 

The boys drape the jockstrap over their dad's face while he's sleeping on the couch.  The dad smells it and has a smile on his face because it smells fresh and clean. 

 

I think the commercial is in poor taste.
