What's your favorite commercial?
Permalink Closed

I remember we did this awhile ago, but it was fun, so what the heck!


I have two right now:


1)  The Volvo ad with the little girl that will not stop talking to even take a breath.  "And his head was so tiny..." 


2)  The Citibank one with the Russian dude that says "Rewarding!  Very, very, very rewarding!"  I especially like when he says he'll get rewards points "wicked fast and I'll do it blindfolded."

me too!!! i'll turn up the volume just so i can hear him.  my brother and i said that over and over during thanksgiving (rewarding! very, very, very rewarding!) instead of cool or awesome.  my parents wanted to duct tape our mouths shut.


i also love the new triaminic ads... especially the baby wolf trying to count sheep. :dies of cuteness:  even the ants in the anteater commercial are so cute!

Right now it's the prepaid cell phone one where they do a copy of "A Christmas Story" and they say, "You'll run the bill up!".

I love the "rewarding" ads.  They just make me giggle!

I haven't seen it in awhile but I used to love the K9 Advantix commercial with the singing puppy away at camp.

i don't know that it's my favorite, but the cingular commercial where the guy's on the phone with his future father-in-law...the FIL tells the guy to call him jim and he goes into all these nicknames...everytime he says "jimmy crack corn and i don't care" i DIE.

I love that one!  Cracks me up every time.


The credit card commercials with Peyton Manning always get me laughing too.

The Petsmart one where the little dachshund gets his Bobo toy replaced.

My dog had a monkey toy that she carried around by the neck like a baby puppy, so it hits home.

This is my absolute favorite, but it's because SO and I want a mini dachshund more than anything.  He even went and bought a Bobo for when we get him

ME TOO! And the Kleenex commercial with the puppy.


Also, I know this is so cheesy, but I love that old Folgers commercial they air around the holidays, when the older brother who's back from college sneaks in and makes coffee for his parents. Gets me every time.

Me too!  My cat had a bobo, but my sister's dog destroyed it, and I can't find a replacement.  So sad.

since its the holidays... i love the hershey kisses commercial where they are handbells and the last one ringggggggggggs and then wipes its "forehead" and says "whew!"


i think i love it so much b/c my mom and sister both play handbells and it reminds me of them.


and i'll tell you the most annoying commercial as of late is the one with Heidi Klum for VS and she sings "Santa Baby" which is one of my favorite christmas songs and she pratically RUINS it for me everytime!!!
