OK, let's see: the actor has the wrong accent, and the tuba is what looks to be a Yammy upright valve model. Are there any more non-sequiters I missed? I'm down at home with pneumonia today, and that commercial really did not help matters.

Haha! I know the one you're talking about. It's always both hilarious and incredibly annoying to see the mainstream American media's interpretation of tuba players. Gotta give 'em one thing, though. They got the costume right, at least...

Like anyone other than a tuba player would notice, or care, what tuba was being used in a pancake house commercial.

The very point of the post two posts up from this one.

Yes, in spite of the bad commercial, the restaurants are pretty good. My son is particularly fond of the butter pecan syrup. And I'm, well, when I go, I have to keep any "Homer Simpson" tendencies well in check when ordering.
