I'm sorry, but the Claire Forlani Dewar's commercial....

This dang commercial has been bugging me for quite some time now. First, she's not Scottish, she's English. So the accent, and whispering it, the whole time bugs the crap out of me.

But what really gets me is at about the 30 second mark she acts like she has food stuck in her teeth, that ain't sexy. I don't get it.



Oh, and this crackling noise that the bottle makes when it gets opened, yeah, no, that's way embellished.

I actually get mildly entertained by these liquor commercials that come out each year. Most of them are pretty dumb and are trying to make dumb people think that is the in liquor of the year. But I can say this, as a 15 year veteran of the service business, there are a lot of dumb people who drink exactly what the advertisers tell them to.

When I'm drinking Dewars, it means I'm out of scotch.

lol....I agree....Maybe the commercial only makes sense when you're drunk...Yeah, at the end there she just needs to hock out a spit-wad to complete the picture...

I guess if you're a bitter, old broad this would be the drink for you....No sex appeal in there for me....You guys can have her....

I'm keeping my Blue Label unopened until a special occasion. I would like to give the Platinum Label a shot, though, even though it's $180+ for a 750mL bottle

I think the effect of the commercial is working, it's got you emotional enough to talk about it, thus making more people aware of Dewars that were probably unaware of it by posting it here in this forum. You enabler you.
