DIRECTV - Painfully awkward Rob Lowe - (2014) :30 (USA)

Rob Lowe gets to wear makeup and act strange again as he plays "Painfully awkward" Rob Lowe, the guy who got cable instead of DIRECTV and is thus 100% loser while waiting for the cable girl, or worse cable guy, for ages behind his legit awful curtains. Much like with super creepy Rob Lowe and less Attractive Rob Lowe this fun rests entirely on the fact that Rob Lowe is surprisingly good at acting out his inner dork, creep and less attractive self.

Painfully awkward Rob Lowe reminds me of many guys I knew in commuter engineering school. Probably is also an amateur radio operator with an extensive collection of vacuum tubes.
