I don't know about you, but I think some of the commercials these days are pretty damn funny! So just wondering, what are some of your favorite commercials?
The commercial thread!

Welllll one of my all time favourites is one about a super bean.. and also the one's for Knorr meals.. with the Pandas.. classic.. only really get it if from the UK.. ooh and I so do not get the Pepsi one with monkey and the car.. and the driving.. and the "to thee ai..air..airport".. nothing remotely funny about a monkey driving a car..
There's that one where we see a daughter talking to her mother on opposite sides of glass, who looks to be in prison because her orange-collared top and her less than glamourous look--no make-up and her hair tied back. Anyway, the daughter asks "when are you getting out of here?" The mother replies, "I don't know" or something then says she has to get back and turns away, revealing that she's actually sort of "emprisoned" in a bathroom tub trying to get the ring of dirt out. Then suddenly the daughter yells, "I LOVE YOU, MOMMA!" with the mom exclaiming back, "I LOVE YOU TOO, BABY!" and it's SO dramatic and corny that it's funny. I think it's for Vim cleaning spray..?
It stuck in my mind because the acting was so over the top. Sadly, it stops getting funny after the umpteenth time but it's still a great commercial.

My favorite commercial was aired in the US a couple years ago.
There are two men throwing a stick up into a tree, so you know instantly that they are trying to get something down that is stuck. They keep throwing, and then whooosh! A freakin Volkswagen Jetta falls to the ground.
It just cracks me up.
I was also partial to the "Real Men of Genius" beer commercials. They were funny, too.

I like loads of adverts, like theone where that little kid robs a bank but at the start of the advert you think hes going to a fancy dress party lol!!! Oh and unlike some people who find them annoying i love the KFC adverts, well really just the first two as i haven't really heard the new one but they just crack me up!!!

I have no idea why I love this, but I do. It's one of the ads for the new AOL 9.0 and Julia Roberts does the voiceover, but it's talking about system failures and what not, and this guy just goes, completely deadpan: "I want my computer to make a sound like a yeti. BBRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAPRRRRRRRRRR!" I love that!
And I love the song in the I-pod Shuffle commercial, and I wish I knew what it was. You know, the one with the green background, and the arrows? Does anybody know? Another one I love for the music, I think it's a Garnier commercial, but it has that song that goes "Gimme a head with hair/long beautiful hair/shining, gleaming, streaming flaxen, waxen/ here baby, there mama/ everywhere Daddy, Daddy HAIR!" (at least, I think those are the lyrics...)I love that song! Who did it? Originally, I mean...what's the title? Hair?
And the commercial that aired during the Superbowl (haven't seen it since) for the 2005 Mustang, with the guy frozen in the driver's seat with the top down and a Hawaiian shirt on in the middle of a blizzard? That's great.

I saw this hilarious commercial that is advertising all of these candies, and easter baskets, it was one of those stores like Wal Mart. So, they have this big stuffed bunny, and then he winks. The very first time that I saw it, I laughed SOOOO hard, but then that night I had a nightmare about that bunny winking, so now it just scares me. But, when I first saw it, it was funny. So, does that count???
I loved the old batch of ads for S1jobs which would only have been seen in Scotland. But my current faves are the Yellow Pages ads with James Nesbitt. There are a few to choose from but the one that has me in fits is where he gets a new computer and is trying to work it when his niece shows him what to do. So he tells her to get out unless she wants another haircut and she runs off. Which relates back to one of the earlier ones where he cuts her hair.

Reviving this thread for this: The girl who played Amanda (the Potential) in Season 7 is in the new Ask Jeeves ad, and it's really funny!

I tend to laugh at the adverts with I think it's Vontage? Whatever. It's the whole "People do stupid things. Like pay way to much for their... something"
I like the one where the guy is running on that exersize machine (im blanking the name?) and he stops for a second, then steps on it again and flies off... Lol. It was great.

I forget for what its for, some sandwich or something but theres a baby and hes talking about it then he says something like 'when i get my teeth in, rrrar i'm all over that one' I think its so cute but it cracks me up everytime I hear him say it.
Theres another one, not sure if its coffee or some kind of milk shake but they put this woman in a room with the cup of stuff in it and then people watch her from another room and everytime she touches it it shocks her, then she gets to a point where she just grabs the cup and shes getting shocked so much, I thought that one was funny.
