An ice-cold, whip-cream-topped coffee drink usually does make everything feel better. But no matter how good McDonald’s new McCafe coffee is, it is not going to turn a morning commute into something spectacular. This commercial, the first spot in the fast-food chain’s advertising blitz promoting McCafe, follows a woman on her way to work, where she runs into people who have one of those coffee cups in their hands and are smiling pleasantly. While she gets bounced around on a crowded shuttle with no available seats, a woman on the shuttle is enjoying her coffee from a comfortable seat.
