This charming little McDonald's spot tells the common tale of a proud father celebrating his son's positive report card with some burgers and fries. Of course, the proud papa uses the bear necessities to get his kid a happy meal, as some unsuspecting tourists quickly find out. The commercial is a great example of the influence of the new Disney-esque anthropomorphizing of animals, where the grizzly bears are presented naturally but with human sensibility.
