Commercials you love or hate

That's right! What's your favorite commercials (and the ones that are on the opposite end) I have a commercial that scares me....it's for Oklahoma Public Transportation...we see a lot of people on the bus and they say various things like a father and son saying that they are going to the zoo, and a woman saying she's going to work.....then we zoom in on an older lady.....a quite older lady...and she says..."I'm going to see my boyfriend" she says it in a scary almost trying to be seductive sort of way....it scares me.....

I got a kick out of the Hugh Hefner Carls Jr ads when I first saw them. What else.....

There was this hilarious one with a guy in a basement on a treadmill a while back...he fell off it and stuff kept falling on the treadmill and hitting him in the head. It was pretty funny.

I usually like the PBS commercials that have themes like think and stuff....those are usually good!

oh gosh! and the CITI credit card commercials with the old lady cleaning out the pool and she's going on about buying the nice truck, and getting the mudflaps with the naked ladies on them. It's hilarious because it's in a guys voice, and the lip-syching is PERFECT! And theres one with an old guy talking about underwear in a girls voice! It's hilarious!

if you haven't seen them, they're about identity theft!

Yea, I was just thinking about posting those! They're great.

Hate: local commercials.

Scared by: my father's radio commercial *shudder*

Love: anything with Muppets in it, and I don't know why but I just loved that commercial for the computer where they're singing the Rainbow Connection.

There's more I love, but I can't think right now.

local commercials are the best to make fun of! there's a furniture store in the area (it's run by two brothers) and they always hold a puppy or a baby like that's gonna make us want to go buy from them.....oooh they have a puppy.......

You know what are hilarious commercials, mainly because they're so terrible? "Attorneys". Those commercials are just too funny. Who in their right mind is going to hire an "attorney" that advertises during Jerry Springer or Ricki Lake.....

 

[sarah_yzma]

the ones that go THAT'S MY HUSBAND during the show....

hehe there's an attorney around here that has commercials and was arrested a few months ago for grabbing women...it's funny because his commercials say like I want to get to know you, not your case *laughs*

 

[jediX]

LOL!! One guy here supposedly has drunk driving arrests on his file.

Love: The twizzler pull 'n peel commercial where the guy's playing with the twizzlers, pretending they're a mustache, and making fun of his boss
Hate: Any Viagra commercials or anything like that
Scares: The one that advertises that cure for toe fungus or whatever it was, and the bug thing lifts up the guy's toenail and crawls under it
