Title: TV Commercial makes me laugh every time
Post by: Sir Rodney on 2011-08-19, 16:11:30
There’s a television commercial currently running that makes me laugh out loud every time I see it.  The problem is, I can’t recall the product they’re selling so I can’t post a link.  (Not very good advertising  ::))  My Google-fu has turned up nothing, maybe you can help.

Near the end of this commercial is a knight (armoured in a 15th century kit) simply standing there.  Now, the prop guy must’ve had a clue that something wasn’t right when he still had one tasset left over after dressing the actor.  Instead of a tasset hanging over each thigh, he mounted one tasset squarely in front as if it was the largest codpiece in history!  ;D

If you can link to this commercial, please do so.  I need a laugh today.

I forget what the product is, but I think it is the one with Neil Patrick Harris, he has his weekly yard sale and he has a full suit of plate and this guy walks up and asks if it is a medium; then later on he asks if it makes him look fat (he's dressed) - is it that one?

I can't find it.

Yep, that's the one!  Boy, either my Google-fu is seriously weak or this commercial hasn't been posted anywhere.

You know I can NOT remember what the hell the commercial is selling but I remember it only because of NPH (he's hilarious to me, he's got a great deadpan delivery) but the fact that he had a full suit of plate right next to him!

STILL can't remember what its for...lol

I haven't seen it, but it sounds similar to the odd Comcast/XFinity commercials. Like the one with the giant panda.

That's it, Sir James...it is an XFinity commercial.  Meant to comment on that yesterday but couldn't even get online (here).
