Charmin Toilet Paper
Is it just me, or does anyone else think those Charmin cartoon bear commercials sickening?
I mean come on … a couple of bears always takin a dump behind trees next to a river with a roll of TP hanging from a limb. Time to change your ad agency Charmin.
Dumb!

Cute talking bears. How out of touch with reality is America when it loves ads featuring domesticated, cutesy bears? Just once, I’d like to see one of these ads end with the Grizzly reverting to nature and eating some actor’s face without chewing. If I didn’t drink so much coffee, this kind of thing might really bother me.
Great commercial! We all would like to take the opportunity to take a shit in the woods and forget about it all. The convenience of TP just adds to the essence. It is a common everyday occurrence.
But they have gone way too far this time. The Hallelujah Chorus in a tp commercial?????????? Nuh-uh.
I never have liked the Charmin cartoon bear commercials. I think they are very offensive. The newest one offends me even more. Playing the “Hallelujah Chorus” in the background while the two bears are running to their perspective outhouses is totally degrading to one of finest pieces of music ever written. Even though we have used Charmin Bathroom Tissue for a long time, we won’t use it again.
As a Christian I find it sacrilegious and offensive to use portions of a Handel’s Messiah in this commercial. Charmin tissue is soft but overpriced anyway.
To use Handel’s Messiah for a toilet paper commercial indicates to me that our culture is headed in the wrong direction. What is the purpose of such decisions by these corporations? To take what was once considered sacred, and align it with human body functions serves what purpose? What message do we send our children? So when they hear Handel’s Messiah, think of toilet paper? It’s tragic. Our country is moving farther away from our Christian heritage. May God have mercy on us.
I am very offended and would never buy their product again.
And now with the “little white pieces”…
Man, is nothing sacred? I’ll take my chances with white pieces and buy another brand, thanks.
Its seems to be saying that when you are in the wild and have to take a dump, normally you would use what ever raw material you can get your hands on to wipe. In the case of the bears they have the luxury of using a soft roll of charmin. They could have used any animal to get the message across, but I think they used bears because their physical stature is similar to that of humans. That’s just my take on that.
The most ridiculous ad I have ever seen….the only thing that would make it worse would be to have David Caruso standing behind a tree removing and replacing his sunglasses while standing completely still with his head dropped to on side and is legs spread, wondering how to catch the bears befor they litter the forest with tiolet paper !!!!
Thanks to Charmin, every time I hear Handel’s Messiah, I now think of two bears trying to reach the porta-potty before they take a dump on the beach.
And now they’ve added a brown oval-shaped object next to the bear in the “white pieces” scene. I couldn’t believe they’d show a bowel movement in their ad. Digusting – too much relevance isn’t always a good idea. OK, I caught on- It’s foottball season, they gave the bear a football. But yes. they should fire their ad agency.
At my house it’s HIDE THE CHARMIN, We have 2 two types of toilet paper the really cheap and Charmin when the grand kids come to visit it’s QUICK HIDE THE CHARMIN they will go through a months worth in 2 days………. so now I put out the really cheap kind and don’t care…..LOLROF, It is a joke in the family….
“And now they’ve added a brown oval-shaped object next to the bear in the “white pieces†scene. I couldn’t believe they’d show a bowel movement in their ad.”
You mean the football?
Wake up people that ad is full of gay undertones. The current trend of “Bears” and “Cubs” is all over that ad. How disgusting that those homosexuals get to promote their dirty agenda using Handel and some innocent god fearing animals.
I AM VERY UPSET I WAS JUST BUMPED OFF THIS SITE. IV KNOWN CHARMIN SINCE THE DONT SQUEEZE DAYS BUT NOW TO HAVE A CARTOOON MOTHER BE IN CHARGE OF THE DINGLE BERRIES OF HER CUB? HOW ABOUT MEN TAKING SOME CHARGE OF CLEANING? WOMEN WOULD LOVE IT AND IT WOULD TEACH OUR YOUNG BOYS AND GIRLS WE ARE RESPONSABLE FOR OUR OWN MESS. PLEASE CONSIDER. YOUR ADS ARE VILE. I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO KEEP USING YOUR PRODUCT
