Ok, just saw this one and I think it's weird!! These two little girls come up to their dad who is just sitting in his easy chair reading a paper I think.  They tell him he would be a "good catch for someone," as they hold out a box of Just for Men.
 
OK, so what are we saying here, they guy is a piece of sh*t if he has gray hair?? Unless he uses this product to HIDE his true identity, he is just a wart on the ass of society?? Boy, that sure does tell us a lot about our society today as well, huh??
 
My wife, who is usually pretty passive about commercials pointed out to me, "Now where did these little girls get that box of hair coloring??" Damned good point my better half made!! Does old gray-stroke provide them with a credit card so they can order up some hair product online? Did they sneak outta the house and run down to the local Wal Mart to make their purchase?? Sooo many questions, sooooo few answers!!

God do I hate that commercial. Then he sends his kids a picture txt while he's on the date I mean what the screw? And the music...what is going on here? I swear they threw gold bond in his hair for effect too lying liars.

It is one of the weirder commercials I've seen in recent memory.

Yeah, this one bothers me too.

I find it a bit creepy that the little girls are pushing their dad to date.

Hey...I lived in San Francisco for many years, and there're plenty of women there who fit that description.  But we'll just assume you're not one of those.  LOL

I think its hilarious how fake the dad's cell phone screen appears in this ad.  They show it up close for a moment in the ad, and the picture is perfect (looks professionally done), and the screen is definitely too close to the edges of the phone for it to actually be functional.  It reminds me of the fake cell phones that are on display in some stores that has a 'screen' that is comprised of a printed piece of paper behind a clear plastic window.

What...the...HELL?!!!

Who do these girls think they are? Who said that they were the ones who indicated that it was time for him to date again? And why would they give him a box of Just For Men? Are they saying that their daddy's not attractive enough to pimp out because he has gray hair? And that sappy Hallmark music! it sounds like music that would come on an advertised "very special episode" of some TV show.

"Tonight...on a very special episode of Daddy's Little Girls...the girls try to fix their father up on a date after being widowed for three years. But will he be able to do it without the help of Just For Men? It's the one episode you DON'T want to miss!"

Excuse me while I barf...

I also want to know, how the girls were able to get the box of hair color.  The picture on the cell phone, I don't think so.  On a flip phone, it will now be to the edge.  Just because someone has gray hair, does not mean that they need their hair colored to look good.

Is it just me, or does the guy look a little young to be that gray?  Maybe its because his first wife made him go gray early. Maybe he needs a break from women and don't need the Olsen twins pushing him to date so soon.   AND was that a TEAR in his eye??!?

can you imagine this commercial if the dad was Vince Shamwow? I think his daughters would of told Vince what they really thought of him and his gay commercial. { there would of been at least 13 "Bleeps" throughout the commercial}  one bleep would probably sound like:
Goddamm it Dad, will you stop F#$#@#in playing with that F^%$#in '   Shamwow!  Put some  F@#!*&^!!in  weight  on, grow some  F^%$#@!N  hair  and  Get  A   %!!@#$  life so we can have  a !!!!!$#^*N  Mommy !!!

So I think they finally realized that, after years of picking on women based on their looks, there is still a vastly untapped market: men. Now, I realize that men have been picked on for being too small or whatever before, but it just has never seemed to reach the level that it has lately.

And the last girl you dated....you almost put her eye out when you liiike kissed her goodnight!! And remember the one you scared off because you sneezed and like that SUPER HUGE wad of snot was hanging off it!! It was totally gross-a-ramma!! Daaaad, that is like  totally lame!!!! And Dude........what's with the throwing stuff????? Liiike when you go out on dates and stuff, like tot-tally don't throw the babes bra like on the ceiling fan!!!! We don't like it when you guys, like, like do that and stuff!!! It's like soooo tot-tally NOT coo-ul. That is like, soooooo not right!!!! You need to like take a pill dude, chill a few degrees, cause you're like sooooo totally like tense and serious and stuff!! You don't have to go liike all Vin Diesel on people all the time.
 
OTHER GIRL: And Daaaad, stop pouring cola like on her carpet, and trying to like soak it up with your underwear!!! Just because ShamWow made you a bunch of like Shammie Jammies, doesn't mean you get to like, show them to everyone!!!
 
FIRST GIRL: OH and Daaaaad, you can't walk, like into a restaurant and look back and say, "Are you following me blond girl with big tits???" And when she doesn't finish, like all of her macaroni surprise, you can't keep telling her, "See all these noodles? Look at this cheese.......you're throwing away a fortune here!!!!" Daaaaad, if like she doesn't want all her feuuuuuud, you've like totally got to let it go, dude!!! You can't keeping chopping it all up with the slapper chopper thingie!! And stop asking the waiter if you can help with the dishes!!! Daaaadd, that is like soooo totally embarrassing!!!!

Did you see?   There's also a "best of both worlds" hair color that let's you keep a little gray so you can look "young" and "experienced".  LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL

What's the point of buying hair color for that?   Just put some of the Leno shoepolish on your hair and go! LOLLOLWink

Uhh, yes. This coming from an "experienced" young lad playing on the internet all day & night instead of chasing skirts.Ermm
 
But to the commercial. What would these 2 young girls know about grey hair & dating? Is Dad  going to the local strip club for a "date"?
This reminds me of that old Southwest "wanna get away" commercial where a woman is nosing around in her date's medicine cabinet which caves in.
Sooner or later, any "fakeness" will be exposed.
 
Dad might have a word or two, to his darling daughters who think looks are everything. Or Dad will be giving a WonderBra to the one who isn't getting any dates.EmbarrassedWink

Do you really believe it is a real screen that we see superimposed over the (somewhat dated and clunky) cell phone?  I agree that modern flip phones would have screens that go close to the phone's edge, but the phone in this ad looks like its somewhat old, or is a lower model that doesn't have a big screen like the more expensive models. 

The screen on the phone reminds me of TV shows (like Extreme Makeover: Home Edition) that film people watching a video on a TV, but instead of showing the real video as captured by their video cameras on the TV, they put a computerized 'screen' superimposed over the TV showing the same thing the people were watching.  Often these fake screens are distorted and are very fake looking since they have to digitally 'curve' the screen to match the angle the TV is in the video. LOL

As much as this commercial sucks, just be grateful that they are not making this into an ongoing commercial 'story' with the next one being the dad popping some viagra in the bathroom and praying that his dye job doesn't run.

I wasn't as ticked at it as I thought I would be.
 
By the initial description of the commercial, I imagined two girls 17 & 19, that would tick me off.  Them being snobby semi-adults. 
Whereas they were 7 & 9 I thought it was kind of cute. 
Though some of the credibility is lost of the father being old and grey.
 
I'm almost 50 and have less grey than that guy does.
