Favorite commercials?

[Marc]

I'm sure many of us have favorite TV commercials that just made us crack up. What's yours? I'll share mine later.

I must say how much I absolutely love those AOL commercials that are everywhere now. Heck, now that they own half the cable channels, I don't even have to go to my mailbox to get their spam, I can watch it from the comfort on my couch.

Or how about those John Hancock, "We're getting divorced, you tell the kids," series. Those were great.

Picking commercials I *like* sure ain't easy, can we change the thread to most hated commercials?

I am one of the few Canadians on these boards, so some of the commercials you may never have heard of, but I do have a dish, so I get a lot of the American networks....

I like almost all the Bud commercials... but the one during the Super Bowl with the "geeky" guys imitating the original Bud commercial was cool!

I also like the Sony Store one where the dad comes into the room where his kids are playing and he says, "More RAM, anyone!?" ha ha!...

The new Pepsi one during the Super Bowl with the Deep Blue chess computer confused me -- I didn't get it.

I did just remember a really funny commercial. I don't think we can post files here, but fire up a Gnutella client and search for "Damn Funny Dutch Commercial." Definitely the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. It's a commercial asking people if they want to learn English. Or if you don't want to fire up Gnutella, I mirrored it here,, just be gentle to my server.

AOL commercials are funny. They show how stupid and overrated AOL is and how most of its user don't know much about computers.

Gee, I wonder how much those actors get payed from AOL...

Way too much that's for sure. Then again, must be very hard to actually lie like that on television.

"So easy to use, no wonder why it's number one!"

Yeah, 100% truth as you can see. Speeds as fast as 56k! Whoa!
