Laxative “Fecal Matters” (Joke) Ad

In a panel show like The View, we have five people sitting around in a semicircle in comfy chairs, talking about issues of regularity and colon health. The show is called: “Fecal Matters” (<like fecal matter).

The spot opens with the people in the ad acting as though they’re actually in a television talk show returning from an ad break. So the main person says: “Welcome back to Fecal Matters. We’re discussing the best way to remain regular and to maintain a healthy colon. So (someone’s first name), what were you saying before?” And then the person being addressed would go on to say that (whatever laxative/stool softener product) works best for them, being strong enough to work reliably, but gentle enough to avoid any kind of noticeable side effects like gas, bloating, colic, diarrhea, etc. The panel all concurs, and the main person on the panel says: “Well, that’s it for today. Thanks for watching, and have a great day!”
