Look up William Lawson's Whiskey?
I think they are fun and there are men in kilts. LOL

On my phone, so can't really access YouTube, but HSBC did a series of '"the world's local bank" - we understand cultural differences' type ones - e.g. British man goes on business trip to the Middle East. Clears his plate of eel because leaving food is generally perceived as an insult* over here. They give him a bigger eel - over there, it's perceived as a pointed way of stating that one hasn't been fed enough. He manages to eat that too. A group of people come in wrestling a massive one..!

*On a 5-day school trip when I was 9 or 10 our teacher actually made the announcement to our class that we were really upsetting the hotel staff by not eating our salads... I'd genuinely thought it was a garnish, LOL!

I'm a little confused. Do you need a video shown on US TV that is marketed at another demographic that the traditional straight white male one? I'd look at the bond/cash now company commercials that are aimed at blacks and hispanics. Logo TV has a bunch of commercials that are aimed at gays. If you watch soccer on ESPN, a bunch of those commercials are aimed at Hispanics.

what i need is a commercial, that i can show in class, that is aimed at, or shows a different culture. period.
teacher suggested commercials that are aimed at the Hispanic market as being easier to get, i want to get something a bit more far flung

Right but does it have to be a US commercial or a commercial from another country?

This is one from Japan for pudding. I have no clue what it is about otherwise:

And the classic Mr. Ray's Hair Weave, a local Baltimore classic:
