This Ad Confuses Me To No End

Sprint has the MOST annoying commercial out right now to promote its new "Framily" phone package.
At first glance they don't look so different. They could be a family. I assumed the grown-ups were married, but apparently they're brother and sister (yes, I researched it. I needed to understand the horror I was seeing). 
But then it gets confusing. The young boy speaks with a Southern drawl.
The little girl only speaks French and is always surrounded by cartoon bluebirds.
But the worst part of all? THIS. IS. THE. DAD. It's a hamster. Voiced by Andrew Dice Clay. WTF?!?!?! Make it stop. I can't take it.

Am I the only one who associates this with Uncle Remus and a blue bird on his shoulder from Songs of the South?
