These guys might as well be saying "Wercome to Ring Rang's bamboo furniture! Brought to you by Sares Genie Sares Reads!" In fact, I don't know if that would make it more or less racist.
Pandas eat bamboo. I know that there is a panda named Ling Ling because he was either at the Woodland Park zoo or on television. The only thing that could be potentially viewed as racist is the accent but I did not take it as racist because the accents did not sound fake and many pandas are indeed from China. The whole "escaped from the zoo" part is more of an animal thing (and is common in American cartoons staring animals) than anything else.
Uhh no offense to Chinese people, but really pandas are mostly found in China and seriously chinese people do have that accent and those kind of names. Heck, I'm filipino and so many people make fun of our accents. I admit it sounds a bit funny to other people and thats no reason for it to be called racism. this commercial had no intentions of spreading racism. it was made to promote a website and i dont really thing theres anything wrong with that unless the website is crap.
unbelievable! it's nearly 2010 and we still have these f*cking racist commercials.... why not go to the extreme and give the pandas slanted eyes and all other stereotypical characteristics your ignorant little minds can conjure up?
No, it's not the least bit racist. Whites are mocked in far worse ways and that is not considered 'racist'. Sorry, you don't get to have it both ways.
I thought the more horrific thing was that it implies that different species of bears are just like different races of people... except they can still see the Grizzly bears at the zoo. What the hell?
goin to see the black folks at the zoo is what I got from this! They must have yanked the commercial off the air really quick because I'm just now seein this!

So if Pandas are Asian people, would Black Bears be African Americans and Polar Bears be Caucasians? And what would that make Grizzly Bears?
