Cheerios Commercial: Good Goes Round

Never a fan of Cheerios commercials.  I thought this iconic junk breakfast food scraped the bottom of the sewer with "Bee Got Swag." Well, I was wrong. Flash forward to this POS! Again Cheerios is going ghetto with another hip hop rap crapper artist. Seeing retarded people slathered in spit up milk and cereal, the hyper action all make for a hurl-inducing ad campaign. That honey bee should sue its employer, the cereal company. 

Did I just see Spongebob?
Did Cheerios even get permission from Nick?

They seem to have a series of those "Good Goes Around" ads.

I think I was going to start a thread about one of them (not the same one in the OP, but similar enough to be considered just as big of a piece of crap) but for some reason never got around to it.

Cheerios is definitely angling for the AA market share.

Whether they're just trying to be seen as inclusive or whether it's a bottom line business decision, who knows?

But the rap crap and hip-hop dancing nonsense puts them all on my mute/switch channel immediately upon seeing it list.

I still cringe when I remember the bi-racial family, white mom, black dad sleeping on the couch, biracial little girl pouring Cheerios all over her father because it's heart healthy.  That's the first one pandering to AA's I remember.

Ever since they stopped airing that 'Insect Wall' AD, they want hipsters to buy their product.

JUST saw this ad for the first time. My God..why must they take every classic product and turn the ad into some pile of annoying updated slop?!  

This "jingle" or whatever you want to call it absolutely sucks the big one! But if they took this song and mixed it with the mom and daughter dancing around like a bunch of hyperactive twits, I'd shoot my TV.

I remember when Cheerio ads were so simple..I mean real simple, stick people on a chalkboard! 

Nothing is quaint and simple anymore.

Everything has to have pop culture appeal.

The worst thing is that our current pop culture is just so damned sh*tty.

Who names their kid "Latrell"?

Does anyone even know what he's singing? I can only make out an occasionally word.
