Review of AD Review- SONIC'S "DUMB GUY" SERIES

Nice review of another inane commercial that reduces the man to a blithering idiot. Some spots have two blithering idiots.

The "Hot Fudge" spot, which the reviewer did not detail, is the most infuriating of them all.

Me dumb guy. She smart lady. Thank God for my wife or I'd toast my hands in the morning and wash my bread.

The ad campaign has its fun moments. But for the most part, it's the same Hollywood schtick that's pervasive in every darn sitcom under the sun.

Oops. I'd better go. I've glued my hands to the keyboard somehow and I need to call my wife.
