Kohl’s Wants You To Silence Your Phone in New Commercial…

I’m not the only one who can’t stand the Kohl’s commercial featuring actress Ellie Kemper as the “Kohl’s Mom.” She was cute on The Office, I understand that, but these commercials are so irritating I’d almost want to watch the Danny DeVito Jersey Mike’s ads instead. Almost.

The most recent Kohl’s ad hasn’t been posted on their YouTube channel yet but you can take a look here. It’s got all the annoying elements of the Kohl’s Mom ads but wait, there’s more! They also firmly command you to silence your phone. 👀

Why is a retail store telling me to turn my phone off? In a theater, I get it. In church, of course. Driving through a construction zone, maybe. But pigs will fly sooner than I go into any store and turn my phone off to grant their strange wish.


Have you seen the commercial yet? What do you think about the Kohl’s mom? What’s crazy is that Zack Morris was right all along. Cell phones are ruining our attention spans. But still, Kohl’s isn’t going to tell me what to do. 😎
