"Quick and dirty" is what they asked for, so don't expect too much from this.

Oh, and there is a known issue with the scissors passing behind the cable.

Being my name is r plate I thought that was some DISH.
Great job!
Voice was somewhat irritating to me though.

I guess the gestures? I used Preston Blair hands in switch layers, and basically just used broad gestures and in one case moving the hand offscreen to mask the transitions.
@rplate
The voice irritated me, too...I made some suggestions about it, but in the end it just had to be done as is. I promise if I ever have to animate a talking plate, I'll insist on a better voice!

Actually I kind of like how annoying the voice is. Maybe not in the context of a commercial, but for sadistic humor you couldn't ask for better than that.

Tee hee, I thought it was really funny & kinda sweet - but I wouldn't want that voice bombarding me at every ad break
