The season is jolly for my son Darrin this Christmas and New Year's. His National Toyota commercial started airing just a week ago and will run thru Jan. 3rd. It plays a lot during sporting events, but I've seen it on MTV, Oxygen, and other networks. Post if you catch it [Smile]

Very good Janice.
They did screen the episode of Grimm that your son was in over here in New Zealand but obviously that ad won't screen here.
Thanks for sharing [Smile]

Cheers from me in New Zealand :-)

Nice one Janice [Cool]

I have a little Toyota Starlet, boy is it small but very reliable. [Smile]

Clinton...yes...you won't be able to see this advert on TV...it's U.S. only.

Graham...Thank goodness owning a Toyota wasn't a requirement to audition for this commercial. Darrin and I both own Hondas [Smile]

However I think Toyotas are great cars too and they seem to just keep on running.

Janice, it must be quite exciting to see something on t.v. that your own son has been involved with.

The opportunity to be in a National spot doesn't come up very often... so for sure Dave it is exciting. Darrin has actually been home for the Holidays the past week. His commercial ran 4 times the other night while we were watching the Golden State Warrior basketball game. The version shown most only runs about 15 seconds so you have to be alert or you'll miss it. We have had so many friends and family texting us and posting on Facebook letting us know they saw him...they get excited too.
