Viagra commercial can’t handle the heat
A Viagra commercial is meeting stiff resistance online from viewers too distracted by a technical inaccuracy to pay attention to the ad’s uplifting message. The commercial even made it into a syndicated auto repair column this week in newspapers across the country. The problem is with the way the actor in the Viagra commercial handles his 1969 Chevrolet Camaro when it begins overheating.
The commercial starts with a middle-aged man driving a polished muscle car on a lonely highway just as steam starts coming from under the hood. He pulls into a dusty roadside service station, and the narrator says, “You’re at the age where you don’t get thrown by curveballs. This is the age of knowing how to get things done.”
