this two ideas are totally different, one is about a father who want’s to save money, and the other is about a father who is showing his new gadget to his coworkers. Even the narrative is deferent, the second one plays with the surprise at the end. The only thing they bout had in common is the father/son/video game and the product they are selling. That definitely is not enough for call it a copy.

@Mike – Both TV commercial ran in France, the product is similar (an automation app for saving money on energy costs) and the action (a father switching off his son’s videogame from a distance) is similar. But you’re right the storytelling, the narrative way is a bit different. I just find it hard to believe it’s totally coincidental…
