Re: 2023 Brevity and Schmevity in Baseball Game Commercials

The rule is, essentially, if they don't tell you what it's for, they don't have to list the side effects.



If they do tell you what it's for, look out.



But even by the standards of other advertised medications, those Keytruda ads are scary as shit. "Other possible side-effects include acid shits, rusty lung, sudden death, and unexplained forest fires. Talk to your doctor if these symptoms persist."

This one got me wondering much more than a fifteen second spot should.



I read it as the South Asian-American missing the cues and playing third wheel as the big gruff African-American male mechanic was going on a one-on-one Dunkin run with the cute-ish African-American female mechanic. But after googling a bit, it looks like the point was that South Asian-American colleague wasn't a colleague, but a customer breaking in on the fraternity of mechanics.



If a commercial requires this much research, it doesn't work.
