This talking baby Super Bowl commercial comes from E-Trade and provides sound tax advice in a humorous way.
There's no stopping a toddler who is learning to talk. Once they learn a few words they can go on forever. However, it's rare to hear a toddler go on forever about tax returns and savings isn't it? This talking baby Super Bowl commercial plays on this absurdity to produce an entertaining ad.
This ad harks back to the days of "Look Who's Talking," which founded the talking baby humor alongside America's Funniest Home Videos. There's something intrinsically amusing about watching a baby move around with an adult's voice narrating.
In this E-Trade commercial, the talking baby sits beside a stack of cash and talks about investments and hidden fees. He even gives some suggestions on what to spend your money on if you just want to blow it.
