Interracial couples in ads (Super Bowl '21) [LONG]

Apropos of nothing, I decided to look at portrayals of interracial couples in an event (picked the super bowl for obvious reasons--it's a marketing bonanza, so it follows that the ads would be culturally cutting edge). Sometimes I see discussions of IR representation in ads, but it's not often anyone does more than anecdotally reference their perceptions. These were just my offhand observations/impressions of the ads (as compiled at this link: YouTube compilation ). I'll list the ads below in order of appearance at that link. Of the 50 you can see there:

-(21) featured couples/people one could possibly assume to be "together"

-In those 21 ads, I counted approx. 27 possible representations of couples/relationships

-of those 27 representations:

(15) were between two people of the same/similar skin tone

(6) were between two people of obvious or known different racial backgrounds (i.e., I included Tony Romo's skechers commercial and the Gwen Stafani/Blake Shelton blind date commercial as "IR" representations

The remaining (6) were too ambiguous to categorize on the fly (i.e., the context of the commercial left it open ended as to whether the people were acquaintances or truly "together," or the lighting/screen time were too brief to make a distinction as to individual races/skin tones/etc.)

Here's the list of commercials. ("N/A" simply means there were no couples portrayed that I could see). Whole thing was kind of an interesting exercise for me (for those who don't know, marketing was my field of study in college). Nothing super scientific, just piqued my interest given past discussions. Take this long-arse post or leave it
