Ragu dared to go there.

In its new commercial for pasta sauce, a young boy walks into his parents room without knocking.

Need we say more?

"A long day of childhood calls for America's favorite pasta sauce," says the narrator.

Walking in on your parents or having your kid walk in on you might be a moment you want to forget.

However, it would seem that the folks at Ragu want you to remember it every time you have spaghetti marinara.

This commercial aired during NBC's Sunday evening coverage of the Olympics, a time when families might be sitting around to watch McKayla Maroney compete in the gymnastics vault final.

Season 3 was just loaded, and I was so disapointed to see that they added a gay character.

Yes, and they've started doing the idiotic "speed up the film at intervals" thing, while adding "whoosh" noise. I was enjoying Warehouse 13, especially the Artie character, but now it's on my "leave the room" list.

There’s one running (I think it’s for a travel company) that features a young couple declaring that they will honeymoon “like rabbits” and an elderly woman sitting by the pool resolving to “turn the pool boy into a pool man.”

The first time we saw that commercial I asked my wife, “Could you imagine the response if they had a similar old man say ‘turn the coat check girl into a coat check woman.’?”

She agreed, the media and the liberals (redundent?) would have coniption fits.

What product would the kid need if he had 2 dads?

A plane ticket

“What the hell was that all about? Is that supposed to sell spaghetti sauce?”

"Fish! Woooo!"
"$5 Pizza. Wooooo!"
"Dachshund. Wooo!"
"Woooo"
"woooo"
"Woooo"

Is that supposed to sell pizza?

I saw it and I couldn’t figure out what was going on till the horrific look came over the boy’s face the farther he walked away from the door. Yes, kind of inappropriate for a food product.
