American vignettes (commercial TV edition)

American vignettes (commercial TV edition)

A typical American family of a white father, an African-American mother and an Asian child watch TV together and eat popcorn.
Two share an intimate moment where one confides her distress at teeth that aren’t white enough.
An older women goes about a busy life in her sun-drenched world, pleasant music playing, while the announcer describes how her medication could kill her.
A smart-ass little kid chides her parents because they don’t understand investment options.
A housewife lets a handsome stranger into her humongous kitchen to discuss labor-saving devices…but neither is thinking about sex.
A celebrity athlete tries to convince us that a personal care product has changed his life.
A cast-of-thousands mini-musical makes us thirsty for some soda pop.
A beautiful young woman with cleavage proposes that 0-60 in 5 seconds is the most important thing in the world.

A shiny new automobile sits atop a mountain where it can’t possibly drive anywhere.
