    Property Brothers.

    I can't be the only one who wouldn't mind seeing them experience a Jared Fogle-like slide, just without the victims.

    I am so sick already of the College Football Playoff ad with Jimmy Kimmel and some other "celebrities" singing that knock-off of "Auld Lang Syne." Only three more months of that shit.

    If Dr. Pepper really wants to sell more soda, they should have John Saunders or Marcus Allen deck that annoying vendor.

    "Sign my petit---" WHACK! Down he goes, spilling flat cups of Dr. Pepper all over his worthless ass.

    He looks like a guy who would welcome Chris Hansen when he enters the kitchen with a few camera people.
    "Hey, you're that guy on TV! How ya doin'?"

    The DQ bakes ads are getting pretty annoying. If the best you can come up with is rhyming shelty with melty, it's time to call it quits.

    I know the whole point of that commercial is that PP is a dick, but why anybody in that commercial doesn't slap/ punch the shit out of him is beyond me.

    Brittle, creaky bones and fast-twitch muscles that have atrophied. Plus Phil still harbors unrealistic dreams of a three-way with Tinkerbell.

    I don't care for the commercial at all, but I do like hearing a great standard at the end.

    There is a pretty good subtle joke in there when he tells JoAnn she doesn't "look a day over 70." Assuming it's a high school reunion, JoAnn is likely in her late 60s.

    Yeah, I got that from the start -- it's just Peter acting like the little douchebag he is.

    I thought the commercial was actually pretty clever when I first saw it, but after that, it's been aired so many times, I got sick of it really quick.

    Any commercial where people get luxury cars for Christmas.

    One of my all time favorite Christmas ads in it's sheer simplicity and ability to deliver the massage of "hey, Grandpa, this is why you need to get an Ipad."
