I didn't like it either - until someone pointed out to me that two of the women are porn stars, and that has some people quite riled. Now I get a little twisted kick out of it.Frukathka said:
P.S. I went to University of South Carolina at the same time Hootie and the Blowfish were still playing local gigs in Columbia, before they made it big. I remember sitting upstairs in the Pizza Hut in the student union building, listening to them warm up for a performance they were giving later that night in the restaurant downstairs - playing "Hold My Hand." And "Hootie" is not Darius Rucker - its just part of the name of their band in general. He HATES it when people call him Hootie. I don't care if you do it, I'm just letting you know.

The only redeeming quality of the commercial are those two girls. They are H O T!

This commercial absolutely rules. Its one of the most subversive and daring things they've put on TV in ages, and I welcome it. Darius Rucker has some serious cajones for appearing in it. For once, I salute Burger King.

I agree with both extremes above - I do not like it as a commerical, but as a Marketing Professor I have to admire the risk that Burger King took in making and promoting it. The costuming alone makes it stand out, and the use of a familiar children's song for the jingle helps a lot too.

I've found turning off the television works marvels. If you can get rid of it all together, kudos to you.
