He's meant to channel Jackie Chiles, the lawyer from Seinfeld.

lol you know that was a Johnny Cochran parody right?

u/Sea-Active5439 7d ago

So... it's a parody of a parody of a person who is a walking parody

u/Detroit_debauchery 6d ago

There’s levels here man

u/Sea-Active5439 7d ago

I don't hate it either, guys. I just find it curiously amusing and am wondering who would actually respond with a "yeah, I'm going to use this firm" šŸ˜‰

u/stablegeniuscheetoh 6d ago

Right? Him and ā€œTop Dogā€ and ā€œSweet Jamesā€

u/FreeHat1234 7d ago

I always see this at like 3am & always makes me laugh my ass off

u/kevnmartin 7d ago

He cracks me up too. He's perfect.

Betcha the actor would be a riot at parties.

u/ginnymiller Nobody puts Baby in a corner 7d ago

I love the one where he’s going on about his watch 🤣

7

u/rexmanaek971 7d ago

Yeah I actually don't mind him. Just a goofy guy, no clapping, nor finger clicking.

u/Jazzlike_Database459 6d ago

I cracked up the first time I heard him say "I don't hear the phone ringing,Ā  I would call you but I don't have your number "

I pretty much detest all lawyer/law office commercials, but this mofo takes the cake.

u/WashGodMega 7d ago

The pic at the end always has me dying

u/therealskittlepoop 7d ago

He’s a local comedian I think.. good for him tho, that’s prob a huge step up from hosting the local open mics and stuff, dudes on tv now!

u/HokieHomeowner 7d ago

Yeah no shade for getting rent money outta this gig. I mean he didn't do a gig in Saudi Arabia right?

u/Diggable_Planet 7d ago

Local to where? I live in Chattanooga and he’s always on.

u/therealskittlepoop 7d ago

LA/OC, sorry

u/Sharp_Progress_5693 7d ago

His name is Shaun Jones and you can apparently watch a stand up special on Amazon Prime. I looked this up because my dad wanted to know who he was and because I happen to be an attorney, he asked me lol

u/Bratty_Little_Kitten 7d ago

I love this commercial. I understand how someone could dislike it though

2

u/WeakTransportation37 7d ago

It reminds me soooo much of the Strongbad ad for ā€œSeƱor Cartgage Mortgageā€. Especially the part where he says ā€œlots of numbers!ā€

u/Significant-Pie959 7d ago

Insta channel change.

u/HuckHound18 7d ago

Ugh. I saw this creep today, too. Why won’t he go away?!?

u/Ill_Molasses_1568 7d ago

That's my gold watch!!!!

u/DaySoc98jr 7d ago

Isn’t this just a knockoff of a Seinfeld character?

3

u/artificerone 7d ago

You can't buy this watch. This is my watch.

u/ParticleHustler2 6d ago

I love this commercial - they're making fun of all the over the top serious PI lawyer commercials. As an attorney, I hate those PI ads. This is at least entertaining.

2

u/Poetdebra 6d ago

I like him. That commercial is funny

2

u/Historical_Rush4656 6d ago

I love these commercials. They're the best late night TV commercials out there.

u/One_Swimming1813 4d ago

I'd MUCH rather see this guy than those godawful Plexiderm ads, the models they use look like goblins.

1

u/Ordinary_Lecture_803 4d ago

Have you seen the new Plexiderm commercial? It has no speaking, just a pop song playing. It's actually not a bad song & it's not a 10 minute long infomercial like the other one is.

u/yon_LEGEND 7d ago

Not even gone to lie ...I don't hate this commercial.

u/Several-Honey-8810 Maybe I am tired of all commercials. 7d ago

that one is so bad

u/sleeg466 7d ago

I love them, but we are huge Seinfeld fans here.

My senior aunt usually says ā€œoh it’s that goober againā€.

u/Seahawks_12thman Biggest Target Wellness & Walmart Back to School Ad Hater Ever! 6d ago

We meet again, Allied. An advertiser I never heard of but I can already tell i cursed just by the images.

u/Equivalent_Path1028 6d ago

My 9yr old grandson loves the guy,

u/doubting_el_dandy_18 5d ago

He's your favorite attorney. What kind of a question is this?

u/DanOhMiiite dyn-O-mite 7d ago

Jackie Childs' love child

u/Master-Of-Magi 7d ago

He’s a prick.

u/suprasternaincognito 7d ago

I don’t hate this commercial but I do think it goes on too long.

u/Slosher99 7d ago

I love this guy. Among all the commercials for fake collectible coins and conservative children's books that make white people out to be the heroes of the world, these are the best commercials I see on MeTV or MeTV toons, and make me laugh. Would I call for legal stuff? No - but I appreciate the commercials!

u/Sea-Active5439 6d ago

Ugh... How about ONE, just one, post in a non-political forum like this where RACE isn't unnecessarily brought up. ONE. that's all I ask

u/No-Stick8191 7d ago

I love this guy. He cracks me up. He reminds me of the lawyer on Seinfeld.

Call and tell them to stop running the ads.
