This commercial is so on-the-nose. They didn’t miss anything, down to the brown eggs so you know that they are a wholesome, organic family.
The non-gestating parent is wearing a pocket t-shirt with jeans and a flannel shirt, so you know he isn’t a kept man. If he was staying home all day, he’d be wearing the t-shirt and gym shorts. He probably works with his hands, but wears fake eyeglasses because it makes him look smart.
The boy is rebelling against the lack of masculinity in the household, so chugs milk out of the jug in front of everyone. You know he intentionally leaves the seat up on the toilet. He self-medicates with nitrous from the whipped cream nozzle because the head shop won’t sell him any more whippets.
The older girl is on the softball team, so isn’t sure if she is a lesbian or should transition.
The younger girl attends a very competitive magnet school for the exceptionality tedious, where she is accepted as normal, and even found a nerdling to walk her to school.
If Apple were really on the ball, they would have a realistic looking AI avatar to field calls from the old geezer and his step-mom.
The ad will work. There are people who want to live like that.
