Ok, in one way, this is one of the better current anti-drug commercials - my heart goes out to the grandma in the spot. However, like most of the others, it has a fatal flaw.
I got to thinking... waitaminnit... a stoned grandson or granddaughter would never, and I mean NEVER blow off or forget dinner plans. It's called "munchies," people, and grandma fixin's are among the best.
If this spot's attack subject was meth or heroin or crack or MDMA or cocaine (for rich kids) or even alcohol, it might make more sense, but since the current national policy likes to pretend that pot is the only substance that exists, I guess we'll never know.
As this AdLand Commercial Archive Classic shows (which in itself is a remake of another memorable classic ad), the Feds didn't always have blinders on.
