Always loved this commercial.

A great commercial about what it means to be 'DAD' and the role that plays. It was put out by cheerios some years ago and frankly I am sad we haven't gotten anything as good as it since. I frankly cannot even imagine a commercial like this being released today.

Dad wasn't an imbecile, and his wife didn't hit him. No wonder I never saw this in the U.S.

/r/shills :P

This is great. What I really liked is that his solution and approach was actually very dad-like: direct, supportive and a touch of humour at the ready.

a bit goofy, but pretty lighthearted so its allright.

It's alright. But yeah, better than your modern family "Phil" idea of dad.

Do you guys think dads are becoming more approachable and less stand-off-ish with each generation?

I think my dad (Silent/Boomer) is great in his own way, but he certainly had less humour and was more distant than this guy when I was a kid.
