It’s always fun to watch people making a mess, as long as you’re not the one who has to clean it up. A commercial for Maytag (via Publicis in New York) capitalizes on this fact of human nature as it dispatches a group of kids to wend their way through an obstacle course that includes a tank of orange juice, giant waffles drenched in maple syrup, a pendulum oozing with raspberry jam, etc. Having completed the course, the kids (superintended by the Maytag repairman, who finally has something to do) toss their soiled white jumpsuits into a Maytag washing machine.
