(SPOT.ph) Everyone loves some relatable hugot, so it's no surprise that tear-jerking ads have been dominating the local airwaves and even our Facebook feeds. (Hello, Jollibee!)

Still, there's nothing quite like a commercial that will elicit some chuckles, and this now-viral ad from Manulife delivers just that. We won't spoil the ending too much, but it mainly revolves around the struggles of a stand-up comedian.

This creative ad hits all the right notes of emotional without being too cheesy, and funny without trying too hard. In short, it's no surprise that it's all over Facebook right now.
