Well,if you recall, they killed off Bill Shatner in the Expedia commercials a few years ago.

Given today's PC lunacy, it makes you wonder if they'll replace Mr. Peanut with something a little more gender neutral?

Where do you kick Mr. Peanut in the nutz?

Amadeo Obici is spinning in his grave.

I'm of Irish decent, and I find that leprechaun stuff very offensive and stereotypical.

Now get me another beer, or I'll kick your ***!

Heard rumors he asked a Planter's peanut client "You still love eating my nuts?" considered offensive language. The Board of Peanuts voted him out.

Please tell, What's more gender neutral than a peanut?

 

[Slap Stick]

It identifies as a man....MISTER Peanut.

Maybe if they get a Mrs. peanut for Mr. Peanut, everything will be good........or maybe they could use Caitlin Jenner as the new Peanut spoke person...its a women with nuts!.....remember, it takes sane people to know that the PC world is insane.....

The Peanut is called "Mister", which is not gender neutral. Of course, this is just speculation, but see if you can figure this out....

The commercial could be offensive since it shows a black guy hanging from a branch if you want to look for something wrong with everything.
