Favorite commercials

I thought I would pose this question after reading the thread about the TB commercial. So, what is everyone's favorites? My faves are:
1. the one for those Yaffa crates. GOOOOOOO YAFFA! lol

2. the one for stereo thingy(i think, can't really remember) that has the dude w/ this chic over for dinner and that "let me call you sweerheart, I'm in love w/ you thing is playing w/ that really heavy metal tone
3. And although I hate the new VW bugs(no offense to anyone that possibly owns these cars or likes them), their commercials talking about the domes and stuff
4. That car commercial w/ that zoom, zoom, zoom song. Sorry don't know the car company either. Vague, I know. But, hey, it's late.

Forgive me everyone if my post seems a little incoherent. I took some benadryl to make me go to sleep, and it seems to have had an opposite affect(effect?) on me. Good night all and sweet dreams

Any of the Sports Center commercials, they are all hilarious. I think my favorite would be the one with the Syracuse Orange getting beat up.

I'm a big fan of the Snapple commercials where they go to either the "Fruit Spa" for good fruit or "Fruit Prision" for when fruit goes bad.

I'm also a big fan of the WWF Chef Boy Ardee commericals. The one with Kane is great!

. . . Or the one where they take out the carpet and put in natural grass - the "Marquis du Sod" is great - or the old hockey commercials - the one w/ stu grimson was a riot; "Why do they call you the grim reaper?" The one with Bon Jovi was good, too, and "Old Timer's Day" was pretty funny as well. Anyway - i love the sportscenter commercials - "Actually, DigiMon means 'Digital Monsters'. . . "

I love the MGD commercials with the "Never miss a Genuine opportunity" theme - they're pretty entertaining.
I also think the Voicestream commercials with Jamie Lee Curtis are hilariously true - i especially love the one where they're stuck in the surf and the old man doesn't want to use his phone until his off-peak minutes set in

Favorite Commercials:

1) It's a cell phone commecial where a couple is stranded on the side of the road(they only play it around Christmas)..."You didn't get me a cell phone, you bought me a waffle iron! Let me use my fluffy new bath towel to send up smoke signals."

2) The FedEx commercial where the GI Joe's are in Barbie dresses and tiaras.

3) The beer commercial where the guy broke up with his girlfriend and he's talking to his friends about it and they're watching the football game over his shoulder. "Man, what a catch!...I know man, she was but she just took my heart and stomped on it...ohh, that had to hurt"

4) The "wazzzup" spoof commercial. "Drinking an import, watching the game...What are you doing?"

5) The black and white Kellogs commercial where the guys are talking about weight. "My dress size does not determine my self worth...I have my mother's thighs, I have to accept that."

I know there are more but I can't think of them right now.

Those Corona commercials where they throw the pager/cellphone/laptop away... MY DREAM

Here's a flashback for all the 70's babies...

"Mr. Turtle, how many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?"

"I never made it without biting. Ask Mr. Owl."

"Mr. Owl, how many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?"

"Let's find out.

One....

Two-whoooo....

Three..."

[CRUNCH]

"Three."

Best commercial EVER!!

Ugh I hate commercials. Hmm favorite commercial? Probably the one where these two guys are runnign full speed to their jeep, than they take off in that. The one guy asks the other guy "what did you do to make us run away that fast?" The driver pulls out a polaroid of him posing for a quick picture with a dissapproving bear.

Other good ones....

-Wassup? And the What are you doing?
-The sprite commercials where that guy is yelling stuff in the air where people are on their cell phones

My current faves are:

The "brutally honest" Jim Rome commercials on Fox Net, I think. It's on some sports channel that I'm sure isn't ESPN.

The UPS "We want to race the truck." All of them are good.

Oh, I seriously cannot think of anything else right now. I blanked when I started typing.

I love the snapple commercials with the fruit. Especially the one about the fruit sex, where they show the lemon and another fruit in the closet together, and the lemon is partially unpeeled. Cracks me up every time.

The new sprint pcs commercial is funny too -"i said i wanted to go hiking tomorrow, not 'bring home charo!'"

Oooooohh!!! I forgot about the Kia SUV commercial where the two women are fighting for a parking spot and also the Jetta commercial where the guy flings himself in front of his car so if won't get hit by the shopping cart.

Ok, I love the new commercials for Serta mattresses. They have the sheep (ya know, the ones you're supposed to count when you can't sleep) confronting people that have "dumped" them b/c they now have Serta mattresses. They even go talk to Johnny Cochran to see if they can file a lawsuit!
Just makes me laugh everytime!
