Today I would like to discuss the latest commercial in this super-weird commercial series for the Discover “It” Card.
I’ve covered this two other times, and judging from the amount of traffic this website gets every single time one of those ads runs, everyone else is wondering about this too. You can find the other posts here and here.
So, now I think that the ad agency for the Discover Card is on to this discussion, because in the latest version of this commercial, they hired TWINS to goof on the fact that the premise of the ad is confusing.
In this case, the answer to the question “Are those people in the Discover card the same person?” is no, in this case: apparently they are twins, unless that is one actress playing both roles.
I feel like it is time to retire this commercial series, but I guess the bigwigs at the Discover Card don’t think so. Maybe they’ll make some more and we can keep analyzing them, and the whole thing will become so very meta that the snake will eat its own tail and we’ll all be in an episode of Twin Peaks. Fun!
