Poor Scholars

BY SCOTT PHILLIPS

Commercials have become a regular part of our culture. Unfortunately, most of them are awful or get old very quickly. But this new K-Mart ad — yes, K-Mart — is absolutely incredible.

I’ve watched the ad multiple times and something new makes me laugh every single time. Although the humor is sophomoric, the comedic timing of the new actors is what drives the pace of the commercial. I don’t want to ruin any of it for the sake of the laugh, but it’s quite enjoyable.
