I firmly believe Becks "December to remember" dad who lost his job is this character, who got fired for writing this pepsi commercial

[@robberry2480]

I love it! This is now part of my headcanon. I propose the following timeline: 2017: Events of "Pepsi Commercial." Beck is later fired and loses all clout in the ad industry. Over the next two years he is forced to take jobs at smaller, less reputable ad firms. Alcoholism begins. 2019: Beck is fired in March after a string of bad ads and missed deadlines due to his increasing alcoholism. His reputation is now so bad he can't get hired anywhere, let alone at an ad agency. 2020: Events of "December to Remember." This is the final straw that leads Heidi to divorce him. (And possibly begin dating Mikey.) 2021 or later: Events of "Boop-It." Heidi sues for full custody after Beck gets drunk and neglects his kids while playing "Boop-It."

I love Beck and Kyle's friendship. It's so pure and they go back so far together. Cecily is so precious though.

[@monicas.8395]

Beck carried this so gracefully & the way he just handed it off to Cecily to finish with that BANG! UGH! Literal perfection 😂😂😂

[@getrealp78]

I feel like Pepsi knows everyone prefers Coca Cola and they thought " might as well go out with a bang!" 😐

[@sinonslife4812]

Nope not everyone prefers Coca Cola.

No words. They did this flawlessly. Perfect, in an essence.

[@cathyhc5150]

Can I just say how good the color grading and set design is in this skit? Everything is either blue, yellow, or red, the color of pepsi, even the clothes and hair colors.

[@LeeBee-hs6mj]

Beck Bennett does a great job in this. Love how his face falls in each conversation.

[@tammybirdperson6428]

Oh man, this an actual ad. Way funnier I did not see this, because I have no internet connection unda the sea, where to be honest, darling, it is better down where it's wetter, man.

[@doesntmatterwhoiam23]

Shud The Blobfish you're a great mermaid, you know that?

Actually wonder how much Pepsi paid SNL to play this and advertise a bit, save face and get some good laughs? That's pretty much an ultimate win-win

[@Foxzig]

hahaha your profile pic is kill in me XD

[@rossedwards2735]

that's what kills it for me - we are in the middle of psychological warfare. Like it was one guy's idea.. what a joke. It took a lot of tone deaf people to OK that one, and Pepsi is trying to save face. Fuck them.

[@miamivicemastermixer]

probably part of the plan

[@bonnie1430]

That “LIVE AND LEARN” Pepsi slogan at the end is just the best

[@christiankrueger2330]

It should be a wake up call that idiots like Kendall Jenner or most other celebrities shouldn't be your moral leaders. Don't expect them to be thoughtful or have integrity. That's not why you watch their dumb reality shows or listen to their crap music. Admit to yourself that you have shitty taste in art and that it makes you uncomfortable to see their shallowness, because it reflects your own.

[@ludmillagutomo]

i just wish the real director had a sister who tells him that this was a bad idea 😂😂😂

[@hadracks]

Once the ball gets rolling it is pretty hard to stop, as they showed in the skit. The problem is the ball should never have started rolling and someone should have stopped it early in the process. Oh well, tens of thousands of commercials are made every year so some are going to be in poor taste.

[@tomarnold7284]

@@hadracks Speaking from someone in the business I see! Yes, the decision would have been firmed and approved long ago, and it's not up to the director to change it. In fact, it might not even the director's fault for the idea, he's job was just to deliver the idea visually. The fault was on Pepsi, when the big corporate heads thought that their brand was big enough to influence the pubic, much like when celebrities trying to get into politics. So glad the public reminded them that they just sell soft drinks, and should stay that way. What the director could have done, was to shoot as many alternative scenes as he could while the set is still here, and edit different (or less sensitive) versions for the corporate to choose from, talk them into using the new version and away from the original.

[@k221-s4j]

Why did Kendall's character look more like Kylie?

[@yeastofthoughtsmind9623]

Ironically, this was Pepsi's most successful ad campaign. The goal of ads is not to get you to LIKE a product or brand, its to make you THINK of a product or brand. And everyone and their mother was talking and thinking about this ad when it came out. As a result, Pepsi's sales rose after the ad. There's no such thing as bad publicity. I find it truly hilarious that people's outrage over this ad made it more effective than it otherwise would have been.

[@TheKerpopplenaut]

Damn, he got that neighbor on the phone quick.
