Red House Doesn’t See Colors

I’m white and I like this commercial. This is hilarious. I don’t know the back story, but I think it’s hilarious. It just seems like these two pretty funny guys, Rhett and Link, showed up at this place and said, “Hey, we want to shoot a commercial for you guys.” Which, in the land where consumer generated content whens over mainstream anyways, it’s not a bad idea. I mean, come on, Red House will get just as much publicity or more from this youtube posting and people talking about it than any :30 spot they could run on late night TV. And these guys are just having fun — sure trying to gain some internet fame, but having fun as well.

CONTROVERSY. I’m sure some think this might be racist, considering that people in the U.S. can’t discuss race without sometimes appearing racist we need to stop and realize that this is just merely racial. It talks about race in a comical way. Completely over the top to the point of making race funny—just like any stand-up comedian would do. I applaud this creative effort and hope lots of people go to Red House because of it. My only criticism is that it is way too long. To make a spoof of a commercial — even if it’s just an internet video, make it :30 or :60 seconds.

Very Funny, Creatives
