I am boycotting Burger King because of this filthy, unnecessary commercial. They say it is directed at adults, but it can be seen on TV in the middle of the day when my young child is at home and in the living room. There are no excuses. It needs to be pulled and trashed. When they do, I will give them my business again, but not until then.

I cannot stand this commercial! It completely revolves around sex! No wonder there are so many perverts that look at children as sex objects. Not only that, it is desensitizing our children to such a large degree that they will think that it is ok to be percieved this way because all the media and advertising is drilling it into our children’s mind and the adult mind to think that this is the normal way to act and be. I am disgusted completely disgusted. What the hell does a child know about having a sexy butt? Thinks to Burger King I guess they may know now. Our media and advertising schemes that they come up with is our demoralizing every aspect of our lives. I never liked Burger King anyway! I liked Spongebob but I sure as hell do not any more.

Karen,

YES it is still on. Just saw it just now – prime time – during the NBA playoffs which loads of kids (including mine) watch! New version now – more compressed by still with the square butts and measuring by BK. Disgusting!!!

Has anyone seen the commercial again? I saw either Sunday 19th or Monday 20th on sci-fi, but I haven’t seen it since. I talked to one teacher about it later and asked her to write a protest. She said, “I thought it was already removed.” Is it finally gone, or is it still on the air?

Thank you for those addresses. I feel that commercial is inappropriate for adults, let alone children.
