KFC Peace in the Family Deal

I'd actually seen this commercial a couple of times before, but never had the sound up to see what was going on until today.

So two middle aged ladies are talking to each other, while sandwiched in the middle is a bored looking middle aged man. The women aren't talking normally of course, their voices are dubbed into screechy, stereotypical nagging women type voices, although all they're doing is probably talking about some other woman...

The guy reaches into a bucket of KFC, hands each woman a piece of chicken...and ah, blessed silence.

After the KFC spiel about the special they're offering, we have the same scene except its two little boys arguing about something childishly.

Implication - whether it's middle aged women or 6-year old boys, none of 'em say anything worth listening to.

How demeaning to women!
