I also love the first Geico commercial with the gecko. He said, "I'm a gecko, not to be confused with Geico, which could save you hundreds on car insurance. So stop calling me!"

There hasn't been a Geico commericial I haven't liked. The latest one with the gecko and brunette and "love-song" music playing in the background cracks me up.

Also, the Progressive Insurance one with the girl who had a piercing, and her mom is upset because the daughter didn't shop around for the best price for the piercing.

EDIT: I went back, NaturalBeauty mentioned this sprite commercial already, but it is my favorite.

All-time favorite: The Sprite commercial from at least 5 yrs ago where the kids are drinking some orange drink, and there is a sun on the bottle. The sun pops out, says hello. The kids scream and run away, and the sun chases them screaming "But I've got nutrients!" Everyone at school talked about that commercial the next day.

"Beige"
"Off white"
"Mother of Pearl"

I love that!

I used to ROFL everytime that commercial would come on. Wasn't Ecru one of the other colors mentioned? Anyway, LOL.

I also loved the Michael Jordan commercial with "Umi" by Mos Def - I think it was mostly b/c of the song.

Also on my list:
Wendy's "Where's the Beef"
Coca-Cola - the one they show for Xmas - so cool!
The one where the little kid is singing "You are My Sunshine" - I forgot what product was being advertised. Dang!

My fav commercial from childhood:

The Tootsie Roll

"The world looks mighty good to me,"
" 'cause Tootsie Rolls are all I see"
"Whatever it is I think, I see....becomes a Tootsie Roll to me"
"Tootsie Rolls are full of chocolaty chew"
"Tootsie Roll I think I'm in love with you"
"Whatever it is I think, I see....becomes a Tootsie Roll to me"

My fav commercial now:

-Those Mitsubishi commercials because I LOVE the music!
-That one Sierra Mist commercial when its a hot a$$ summer day and that dog is one the bed STRAIGHT CHILLIN'!!!

My favorite commercials have been the latest Nike commercials. Where there aren't really words...just a bunch of different athletic events with this piano music in the background that starts and ends with a little boy running. It's simple but brings out my competitive side. I also like the Nike commercial where they are showing different athletes getting warmed up to the sounds of symphony musicians getting warmed up on their instruments.

I also LOVE the coke commercials (even though I'm not crazy about coke). The one where they start out, "For the short, for the tall, for the big, for the small.....for the sunny days, for the starry nights....for everyone!" I think it's so creative!

1. Geico Mom-running down the street to pick her daughter up from school.

2.Sears- brotha goes to the 'frig to drink out of the milk carton. Wifey is sipping on coffee. Hubby drinks the milk from the carton and INSTANTLY spits it out (it's sour). Wifey calmly without stopping what she is doing says, "The refrigerator is broken". (Something like that!)

I can't remeber which beer company it was but Cedric the Entertainer was dancing and he was shaking up a bottle of beer. When he went to go open the bottle of beer for his date, the beer went all over her! I thought that was hilarious!

Has anyone seen the new Sears commercial with India.Arie and Stevie?

I like!!!

MY FAVORITE commercial right now though is the Sears commercial where the wife keeps hinting to her husband that she wants some jewelry.

At the end of the commercial, he is sitting there playing the card game Solitare, with a deck that she has obviously tampered with...and he is like, "Honey, where are all the diamonds?" She's like "Yeah...where ARE all the diamonds?"

I like the commercial where the 2 M&Ms unexpectedly bump into Santa Clause who is delivering the Christmas gifts:

M&M: "He does exist"
Santa: "They do exist"

Then they both faint.

I LIKE THE 7UP COMMERCIAL WHERE ORLANDO JONES (THE 7UP GUY) IS MAKING THE 7UP TRUCK DRIVERS POSE AND HE TAKES THEIR PICTURE.

THE FUNNIEST ONES ARE THE FAT GUY IN THE MERMAID OUTFIT AND THE FAT GUY CAUGHT IN THE FISHING NET

Hmmm.... of recent commercials- the SPrint PCS commercial they were running around Thanksgiving.

The Sprint guy is standing with a sista in the kitchen. Thereis a turkey on the counter. She is on a phone staring at the turkey. She bends down, looks in the turkey and says into the phone "You want me to put my what in the what what?"

HA!

Love it.

I'm loving the new apple ads where the people are singing. It reminds me of the GAP ads from a while back. The funniest one to me is the guy that does "Baby Got Back" and at the end he does his little butt shake. Everytime I see it it makes me CTFU.

My favorite commerical is...

That pepsi commercial with Orlando Jones. The particular one when he told the dog to fetch the pepsi can. The dog went to fetch the can while it was still in the air and he accidently knocked the dog out, because the pepsi can landed on the dog's head. Then Orlando Jones ran the other way.

I love the one where the man sings "beer, beer, beer, beer" to the Meow Mix tune. His wife just gives him SUCH a look!!

The Chefs and "Great Googly Moogly" is still about my favorite one.

I love the Verizon "can you hear me now" commercials

I think it's value city but the commercials where they find a reason to go shopping are sooo funny. Especially the one where a tiny drop of water falls on the daughter's sweater and they were like "it's gonna shrink!" lol

I love that Progressive Insurance commercial ...
Where the guy sits down at his computer and clicks his mouse on his computer and gets an elf , a disco ball , music , and his roommate turns into a girl w/pizza.
The second one is where the waitress is taking an order and they start bidding on her to take thier order. (I love this one the most.)
