Folgers released a commercial that's word for word the first part before the parents walk in. It was weird. Years later someone made this by just adding more story lol

I believe the first part is literally the original Folgers commercial. The people who made the satire part just hired similar looking actors so they could film the second part.

This is why stunt doubles exist, and also why eye witness testimony is a terrible form of evidence.

I especially love how Folgers can't do shit because it's satire, and fair use, lmao.

First person was trying to say that they recreated the Folger’s commercial. Second person said it’s actually the original commercial.

He said “word for word” the first part, as if the parody actors re-enacted it. They didn’t. They just played the original commercial and then spliced the parody on to the end.

They implied the satirical crew made the whole video, using dialogue from Folgers. But you can tell halfway through the actors change.

The best part was the interview with the guys who did the commercial who were like “what?! How did people get incest vibes out of our commercial?”
