Coke has a new commercial in a joint effort with Sprite, Smart Water, and Honest. Well, “joint” is a little dishonest since Coca-Cola owns all those other brands. If you look closely, you’ll find that this fizzy fun family ad features Fanta, too, making fans flip out, for sure! Yes, Coke owns Fanta, too. Check out the new commercial called “New Guy”…
Homage? I don’t know if this counts as homage or more of just a clever allusion, but the commercial mimics a scene from “The Bear” called Ma Does Seven Fishes. Here’s that scene and be warned: it contains colorful language.
The Family. Although my family isn’t quite as diverse as the one in the Coke ad (does any family have all the races?), holidays sound very much the same. In other words, chaos. Nine different conversations happening in the same room, kids playing board games, a toddler running around in just a diaper and a shirt, food on the stove and in the oven, dogs looking for scraps around everyone’s feet, a faucet left on upstairs, television volume up to 93. Pure madness! Coca-Cola captured the craziness of family gatherings so well. Loud. An organized disorganization. Lots of love. And root beer.
Sorry Coke, I had to.
