By far, his most outstanding performance to date. Also, the tampons are Libra, like myself. As such, it is destined that he will play with me, too.

I can not believe we have a page to discuss the tampon commercial and yet I totally CAN believe we have a page to discuss the tampon commercial.
Dearest FUCUP’s – I do believe we have finally & totally LOST IT!!
That said, I watched it….twice. McMo
LOL!!
Well, you b.tches made the request. Please — discuss the nuances of his brill Oscar worthy performance.
OMG, his emotions in the scene where he says ‘mousey mousey’…I just. I can’t. It is indeed Oscar worthy.
Yes my thoughts exactly Westy, his EMOTIONS. LOL.
He was robbed! It’s a conspiracy…
M, you are the BOMB! You make wishes come true, Please transport one Alex O’Loughlin under my X-Mas tree on X-Mas morning. I will send my Not McG out to look for the Lost Ark and then Mama can play with her new toy.
Sure thing. Only I will be beneath your tree too, sitting on his head.
Love it when a plan comes together.
AWESOME!!!
and throw you to the cat? (-;
This commercial cracks me up because it reminds me of when I was about 5 and found a box of tampons at home and proceeded to take them all apart trying to figure out what the heck they were. The sign of brilliant advertising…you can totally relate to the ad.
Mama – “Brill Oscar worthy performance.” Have I told you lately that I love you and, oh yeah, you are v v v v pretteeeee……McMo
Preteeeeeeee.
Love you too, McMo xxo
Really ??
LMAO !
My favorite part is the “Whaaa?” at the end. Brilliant!
M, you are not only v v preeetee, you are fkn hilarious!
YES I’m McNerding on a tampon commercial:
Is this a Commonwealth thing, maybe? It is just odd (Americans are the biggest prudes on the planet) to see a male person “Star” in a tampon commercial. USA feminine hygiene product commercials are all about being a happy woman, pouring a beaker of blue water in your panties, and rarely if ever is a man seen.
I love that he was confident enough to do this. Or is this standard in OZ?
Don’t know about Oz, but as a struggling actor, if you go on an audition and you get the job, you usually take it. (You’d know ahead of time what the commercial was about and what it required.)
If I McNerd correctly, I think AOL did lots of commercial stuff early on. This is just the best one!
….guys are always the butt of jokes in tampon ads. This be the latest one:
and then here’s another one same brand, guys are still morons though http://youtu.be/oo9kNFqpH5c
The robot tampon guy is my 2nd fave feminine hygiene product commercial. I love him!
Have a happy period, ladies
And I think Gracie is right…about 2003 for ALo’s commercial.
I’m starting to think we have good ads, lol I mean, Westy, just think about our beer ads.
Women are often doing yoga w fem yogi, riding fem horses, playing tennis w fem partners, parachuting w fem pilots, etc.
The normal sh/t we do when we are bleeding and wish to gouge our eyes out w forks.
LOL!
No, it’s not just a US thing. The yoga/ dance thing, or worse, slumber party thing with pyrex beaker of blue water is a standard in Japan as well.
From now on, I shall always consider Australia as the land of funny feminine hygiene product commercials.
“From now on, I shall always consider Australia as the land of funny feminine hygiene product commercials.”
Australia is so proud……
I’m sending this to the Australian Tourism Board. People will want to vacation here for.sure!
LOL I can’t believe this is here. Alex, yes, other than Mark, Sheila and I, amongst my friends you’re not that guy in that show that’s on that island, you’re the guy in that Libra ad when we were teenagers.
That adorkable ad.
How old is this commercial? Can one of our Aussies McNerd an approximate date?
It was def when I was in high school, so we’re looking at 2002 or 2003. Everyone was talking about that dork in the mousy mousy ad.
Thanks.
You were in high school in 2003. Oh. I think I will go cane and bifocal shopping today.
Wait, I will shop with you – I need some denture cream.
Infant indeed!
But it shows how far our boy has come in such a short time!
Also, kudos to the director of this ad to have AOL holding eye glasses. Bold costuming choice!
No points to the set decorator though what’s with all that white on white sh/t? Terrible.
GRACIE: “Adorkable” I love it. Clever girl you are. McMo
Maha, couldn´t believe You added this commercial here! Absolutely perfect. My dream come true, Alex playing with a kitty <3
I saw his other commercials and they were boring…
Just loving it and this!
I can’t believe I’m sitting here laughing my a$$ off at feminine hygiene commercials….again. (High five to you Aussies!) Love the “adorkable” guy making costumes out of them & of course, I watched “mousey, mousey” for the third freaken time. Just noticed (duh) that the kitten is the second cutiest thing I’ve evah seen. (Yep, this proves, without a doubt, I need to get at LIFE.) McMo
Hard to remember that our curley-topped, chubby-cheeked adorkable AOL was the father of a six year old then. He looks about 6 himself, which is weird and creepy and I’m shutting up right now……..
I’m pretty sure there is nothing too weird and creepy for us.
Hey if Feed didn’t put us off what will?
He really does look so young here
even in Mary Bryant I sometimes found him too young for the part (as a father). But with that cheeky smile, he´s always winning people over…
Ughhh Mary Bryant. That movie is so historically inaccurate it actually offended me.
Poor Scott. This thread, about Alex being in a tampon ad has more comments then the Entourage thread. It’s ok Scott, Lainie loves you!
HI GRACIE: Check out 2.6, page 6. I left a comment for you.
Hugsies, McMo
Don’t see any comment on it here, but did you see the nod towards Alex’s acting past for this ad, in Moonlight 13 (fated to Pretend) when they found the flash drive (I think thats what you call it) in the Tampon box in Maureens house and then the cat (Travis) appeared and jumped on Mick to play?
Sorry, I forgot a Spoiler alert here for people that haven’t seen Epi 13 of Moonlight!!!
So smart you are ! Wow ! Did not think of that AT ALL !
It helps to make these silly connections if you see everything major The FOY-man has done, a zillion time within 3 months!
YES! I have this in my Notes on ep 13 which I don’t think we’ve commented on yet? Or have we and I’ve missed it?!? *running to ML page 4*
OMG YOU’RE SO RIGHT!!!!!!!!
I totes just said this exact thing on my ML13 comments!! LOL!
Gotta love a man who’s not uncomfortable with a tampon….
