The newest McDonald's 'Joe and Frank' commercial aims at putting a romantic yet funny spin on the classic fast food chain. The commercial features Joe and Frank, two McDonald's regulars who find a new woman to look at while they drink their morning coffee.
The men begin to dress sharper in hopes of catching the woman's attention. Of course, another man swoops in and steals the girl with his beard and suave moves as Joe and Frank sit at their regular table arguing over what makes the other man better then them. The McDonald's 'Joe and Frank' commercial is comically cute for all generations.
