janie jones December 17, 2014 Share December 17, 2014 It's a small change in the lyrics from Garland's "next year" to Sinatra's "from now on" and using "hang a shining star upon the highest bough" twice instead of using it once and using Garland's "until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow" the second time. I've heard Sinatra requested the changes for the reason legaleagle mentions. I like both versions but prefer Sinatra's voice. Oh that explains it. That song came on last night and I heard that line for the first time, and I was simultaneously like, "Oh that's horrible!" and "How have I never noticed that before?!"

I tell everyone who wants to give me gifts to get me three things, and three things only: nice candles, nice booze, or gift cards. Sorry, but I'm a picky bitch about gifts otherwise and I prefer shopping for myself---plus, I typically end up regifting those gifts people give me that aren't in my three required categories anyway, because people who think they "know" my tastes often end up offending me with what they think I'd like, actually...that includes my family and friends, who have gradually learned that I'm just not into surprises gift-wise. Not to sound ungrateful because I always appreciate the attempted gesture, but really, gift cards exist for people like me: we like what we like and would rather pick out our gifts ourselves rather than swap/return/give away yet another gift fail. Plus, I prefer the convenience of giving gift cards. I've had people argue with me that gift cards are "impersonal", but what's impersonal about finding out a person's favorite place to shop/eat/play, etc and give them a monetary amount to enjoy at that favorite place?! It sure beats just plucking out one of those random, ubiquitous gift sets of bath salts/chocolates/make-up, etc you see littering the department stores every season. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15594-holiday-and-seasonal-commercials/page/6/#findComment-674765
DrSpaceman December 24, 2014 Share December 24, 2014 I happen to like the Julia Louis-Dreyfus ad for Old Navy. Its actually a nice message. I think her persona, and the fact if you do happen to know she is an heiress to a fortune or a famous actress, plays into the ad and is why it works so well. Its not really clear if we are supposed to think of her as the actress we all know or someone else, but it works either way. Just ignoring who she is, its a "cool" aunt trying to impress a regular family with ponies and all her "boyfriends" when really the mom wins out with nice practical things from Old Navy. For kids it works just on that level even if they don't know who "she" is, a famous actress. Its someone trying to be supercool and extravagant kind of put in her place. For "older" viewers (parents) who do realize who she is, its hey, its Julia Louise-Dreyfuss, why is someone so famous doing an Old Navy commercial? Well in this case the fame works against her, the kids prefer mom. Again you don't have to be famous or buy fancy things, just some nice stuff at Old Navy. You don't have to be Julia Louis Dreyfuss to came out on top at Christmas, just shop at Old Navy. The singing pregnant ladies on the other hand, hate them. The Surface Pro 3 jingle, hate it. Nothing worse than a badly done parody song. that one is bad. Also hate the phone commercial where the guy starts singing the 12 days of CHristmas, then says "wow I really went overboard there", or something like that, and the salesgirl says "YOu did......you really, really did"......ugghhhh, awful. You know what is awful overboard in that commercial, the dialogue pointing out how overboard he went. Its totally unecessary. Just awkward silence, some odd lingering looks and an abrupt segway to something else would have pointed out the obvious awkward nature much more succinctly than the horrible lines written directly pointing it out, not once not twice but THREE times.

Since I have no idea who either of those jerks are, and don't care, they look like a couple of over privileged asswipes to me. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15594-holiday-and-seasonal-commercials/page/6/#findComment-677453
DrSpaceman December 26, 2014 Share December 26, 2014 I know who Kristen Bell is but did not realize that was her. No idea who the guy is, but I don't like the commercial. Comes across to me as overly cutesy and phony. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15594-holiday-and-seasonal-commercials/page/6/#findComment-677482

Comes across to me as overly cutesy and phony. That's her RL husband, Dax Shepard. He's on "Parenthood" 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15594-holiday-and-seasonal-commercials/page/6/#findComment-677521
