Commercials we love

He played the brother of Leary's character in Rescue Me.

 

Winters was the Russian mobster's slimy head flunky in the first John Wick. He has also used earnings from his commercials to finance small independent theater and films.

Homicide: the greatest show in the history of TV.

 

Did I miss mention of his Oz role, Ryan O'Reilly, where he acted with his brother. I'm stunned Winters is older than me.. Figured he was in his 40s. But he's 60.

 

Currently in the middle of a rewatch. It's even better than I remember.

 

Love the Progressive commercial with the people turning into their parents.

Probably because it hits so close to home.

 

I don't know ... maybe this is a sign of brand recognition, or lack of same, in commercials.

But this has been bugging me for two days. There's a commercial right now that starts with a first line that's very hopeful. And 6-7 subsequent messages become more and more defeatist. But then it returns to a truly inspirational message -- by reversing the order of those initial lines.

I think it's a brilliant commercial. But I cannot for the life of me identify the product.

 

Not sure what they have to do with insurance, but those commercials are gold.

 

I just saw the commercial ... it's Honda.

 

Absolutely. Those Progressive commercials make it sound like it’s fun to buy insurance. It’s not. Car insurance is a requirement. Mayhem makes a valid point with great dry humor.

 

The Nick Saban Vrbo commercial is pretty funny.
