Apple Says to 'Open Your Heart to Everyone' in Festive 'Frankie's Holiday' Ad

Apple has shared a new TV ad called "Frankie's Holiday" in time for the holiday season, accompanied with the tagline "open your heart to everyone."


In the ad, Frankenstein's monster brings a package with ornaments to a town square and starts singing "Home for the Holidays" by Perry Como on his iPhone. While he initially shocks the large group of people in the town, a young girl urges Frankenstein to come forward, and everyone joins along in singing with him.

Frankenstein's monster is portrayed by Everybody Loves Raymond star Brad Garrett, who stands 6'8" tall.

I'm not gonna open my heart to Apple. No more AirPort, soldered on RAM and SSD on new MBPs, and no new Mac Pro.

I actually enjoyed the ad. In a time where there is way too much hatred in the world, it sends a positive message of acceptance, even if fueled by a holiday celebrated by only a portion of the world.
