I love the Bud Light Real Men of Genius commercials.
This is one of my favourite: Mr. Giant Taco Salad Inventor

Captain Morgan where the people in the bar pretend like they're different TV commercials.

Awesome.

I also like this commerical. It has a very short cameo of one Greg Goldberg of the Mighty Ducks of Minnesota.



Around the 20 second mark, this seems to be an extended one from the one that's usually on TV.

this one bugs me. They close the door in the guys face twice and don't tip him. It just rubs me wrong. No, I never delivered pizzas for a living.

I always liked the Don Equis 'Stay Thirsty My Friends' commercials. Okay, I just like the line, 'His organ donor card also lists his beard.' As a bearded man, I'm always looking for a chance to use some variation on that line.

Having worked at a few pizza shops- as far back as the 80's; let me tell you this isn't really an orignal idea.

And most people won't let you do it. For starters there's a huge liability issue if there's an accident. Plus who wants to let a bunch of potential pukers who you don't know ride in your car? Especially as how the comercial portrays- drunks often forget to tip.

Vanilla Mini-wheats



Cinnamon and Strawberry are good also but Vanilla still can't be beat!

I noticed Blueberry Mini-wheats when I was down in the states last week so I'm expecting a new commercial soon.

Currently, all the Wisers commercials. Each an every one of those are awesome. Gerry Dee is hilarious with his ripping of the ugly sweater. (At least I think that's the one he's in)...and when those guys all clap for the dude carving the turkey...hilarious! I don't even really like Wisers and I bought some just because of those damn commercials haha.

If people can find Youtube or other video links, that'd be awesome. Then we could watch everyone's favourites.

The Discovery Channel one that was mentioned is great.


I don't know where this Ikea ad comes from but it's pretty funny in a sick way.

Brilliant commercial.

I also like their "Start the car!!" commercial.

I can't remember who's commercial it was, but the one where the guy steps off the ice and his wife is there, and he goes into sports cliches during an interview mode. I loved that commercial
I love the "Start the car" commercial so much.

My new favorite is this captain morgan: holiday miracle ad

I love that sumo wrestlers washing the car commercial, every darn thing about it makes me laugh.

Peyton Manning taking grief from all the people in opposing cities was good too, and while not a commercial, well it is but a spoof, I love the Peyton Manning SNL skit for The United Way (?) where he berates the kids and then smokes one of them in the back of the head with the football.

Here are some of the best triple-t ads. (Terrible Terry Tate). These are the extended/unedited versions, so some language is NSFW.

"THAT'S A LONG DISTANCE CALL...DOUG!"


"THIS AINT YOUR HOME, SO DON'T USE THE SPEAKERPHONE...ROGER!"


"READ YOUR MEMOS...GUNTHER!"
