The funniest commercial that I have seen so far was the Red Bull commercial. An animated man is walking down the street, and a bird flies by and poops on him, and laughs. The man takes out his handkerchief and wipes it off. Then he pulls out a Red Bull, drinks it, and then sprouts wings. The man the flies up in the air and get's over the bird, upzips his pants (implying that the man was going to urine on the bird), and the birds screams. This was so funny.

Another one I saw was a European commercial.

This guy went into a department store to try on some slacks. He notices this two piece red satin bra and panty set hanging in the dressing room over the wall. He decides to try it on. He is posing in the the two piece. Then all of a sudden, the fire alarm goes off, and he doesn't know which way to go. So everyone is evacuating the building. Of course this was televised (on the commercial). Then he come running down the fire escape in his two piece in front of every body. The commercial show his wife and kids watching the scene at home on TV. You had to see it.

I like that Targert commercial about the wake up calls for the Day after Thanksgiving sale. There is like an office and at each desk is someone giving the person a wakeup call. The funny thing is, you got folks like Darth Vader, Ice T, a little girl singing, a rooster, etc waking the folx up!

I like the Diet Coke commercial with Adrien Brody. It's not a commercial that's full of action or anything, but the music makes my head bop! :D

I really like the new Geico commercial where it makes it seem like this married couple has to be on a new reality show called "Tiny House" where the house is like 5ft!!!

I like that commercial too!!! But my favorite commercials of all time are the Coke commercials with the polar bears.

My favorite commerical by far is the Tide commercial with the little boy laying on his Daddy (who might I add is very easy on the eye). And the song, "Take Me Home" is playing. I always stop what I'm doing and run to the TV when I hear that music coming on. Such a positive message. I keep saying I'm going to go buy some Tide, just because I like the commercial.

One of my favorites was a Super Bowl commercial from a few years back (during the dot-com boom). I think it was for Etrade. A man is being rushed into the ER. He's lying on his stomach, and little pieces of paper are flying out of his butt. The conversation among the hospital staff is along the lines of: "What's wrong with him?" "He's got money coming out the wazoo!" "Does he have insurance?" "Who cares! He's got money coming out the wazoo!"

I loved the beer commercials with Alex the dog. There was one where his owner was playing poker with his buddies, and there is a sequence of delivery men with various items that the men hadn't ordered... first there's a pizza, then a six-pack of beer, and lastly a female poodle with a big pink bow! There was another one where you hear, from the kitchen, the sounds of a beer being opened and poured out and a dog slurping... his owner yells, "Alex, that better be water you're drinking!"

I LOVE the Geico commerical where the geico is doing the robot and the executive is doing the "stiff" robot.

I love that commerical so much that if I don't see it for a few days, I will go to the Geico website and play the commerical.

:D

I have a new favorite.

MC Hammer's Nationwide commercial. They show him dancing in front of the mansion with his crew like they are in a video. Then the screen flashes "15 minutes later" and they show him sitting on the ground and the tow truck repossessing his car and a "foreclosed" sign in front of his house. The voiceover says "Life comes at you fast...be prepared" or something like that.

I hollered!!!! :D

I second it! That baby was zipping through the house in that walker. Those itty bitty feet were moving quicker than the wheels on the walker.

I also like the Capitol One "No" commercial. They have a few of them but that man kills me with his "NO deal!"

i know nobody remembers these..
 
My first all time fave commercial is from Dunkin Doughnuts where the 'time to make the doughnuts' man is dressed as a woman asking the 2 supermarket bakers about their doughnuts. Neither of the guys can believe what they are seeing (a man dressed as a woman holding his finger over his bushy mustache). He's asking about the freshness of their doughnuts. The one guy on the side drops the loaf of bread he is holding because he is staring so hard. I loved that commercial


My other one was for Pizza Hut and they were singing "on the first day after Thanksgiving my true love gave to me _____ that she made with leftover turkey". The funny part is the christmas tree in the background each day looses more needles and decorations while the guy sitting at the table has had at least 5 days worth of leftovers and is about to choke.


Did i just age myself with these? Oh well...
