With a not so subtle wink and nod, Paramount Farms’ Wonderful Pistacios is out with a new spot that has a little fun with the Secret Service sex scandal which occurred earlier this year. The ad is one of four commercial launched this week

The other three feature 1970s disco phenomenon The Village People; Brobee, the little green monster and drummer from Yo Gabba Gabba! and Sparky and Victor from Tim Burton’s animated monster movie Frankenweenie.

n its fourth season, the Wonderful Pistachios Get Crackin’ commercials have a bit of fun highlighting how various individuals cracks open a pistachio in their own unique way.

The Secret Service do it. And get fired for it. Wait, what? You mean this happened in real life? Oh come on! You can’t blame a guy for getting his nuts handled once in a while.
