Some are funny, some are sad, others are captivating, and some are just plain stupid.
What is the best commercial you have seen?
Do you have a top 5? top 10?

My top 3:

3. Honda - The Cog

My fiancé loves that VW/Vader one.

I can't find it on youtube but the Harvey's commercial where the flames are coming out of the guys mouth and he is setting the office on fire always kills me.

The noise he makes when he realizes he is setting things on fire popped right into my head when I read this

The shriek!!

The little Vader is my all time favourite. It's the only ad I can watch over and over again without getting bored of it.

Another commercial I like is this:



I used to have a collection of commercials good and bad, some that never made it to the TV (too bad because they are very creative). Don't know where I put the CD

I generally tune out commercials or fast forward if I can, but I do remember how funny I thought the McDonalds Filet O'fish commercial a few years back was. I don't even like seafood but something about the fish singing that catchy tune always cracked me up.

Can't post a YouTube video on my IPod but it started: "Gimme that Filet O'fish, Gimme that fish..."

That still gives me the shivers, Dan. Does it get played anymore, or did the we feel that we offended the Americans and bowed down to the south again? It's still a great commercial!

[bargain_hunter_lola]

Dan, it was the first one that I remembered. It still makes me laugh for some unknown reason. lol
