Wow Chevy hits a home run with their commercial on Thanksgiving Day. This video has a quarter of a million views already. It sends so many messages, one of them being that woke is dead thank God. For once the couple is not a black guy married to a Latino Filipino Native American and their kids don't look like aliens from another planet. They are driving a 94 Suburban and it sends the message that a Chevy lasts forever. Read the comments, this commercial got to people. If you're over 50 you remember what it was like when we had a normal country that was all about family.

Are you serious? You actually think quarter of a million views on a sub base of 771,000 is good? LOL. No. From a company worth 66 billion that undoubtedly paid a fortune to advertise the video?
They will have lost a lot of money on this campaign.

You forgot to mention with the woman driving.

Every time I flipped on the Macy's parade, they were either in a commercial or the hosts were discussing nonsense.

What else are they supposed to do? Not much of a play-by-play is available for a parade.

"The marchers have marched another block."

"Now they have started on a new block."

"Now they have finished with that block and they appear to be marching on another block..."

The announcers are in a set spot. Bands and performers are constantly passing them unless they are performing in front of the announcers. You show the performers, the marchers, and the floats. No one tunes in to hear a D-list celebrity reminiscing about how the weather was on the occasion of their first parade.

Never ridden in a car with a woman driving in
my life except my mom when I was a kid. And
I've been driving since 1965. Been in 3 accidents
in my life, all women drivers and their fault in
every instance. Yet in TV commercials men
aren't allwowed to drive apparently.
