    I haven't seen it in a couple of months now, but this was a favorite back in November or whenever it came out.

    Cable is pretty bad, but it's not worse than getting tied down and tortured by a bunch of clowns.

    i fucking hate clowns.

    This might be the greatest commercial ever. Definitely NSFW.

    Michael Arrington, one of the most influential people on the internet as claimed by the Forbes and Wired magazines, put it this way - "quite simply the best commercial ever made". Others viciously disagree. The ad has been called offensive and brainless by a female blogger on bitchbuzz while another male blogger added that such "sexist ads cheapen men as well as women."

    Liberty Mutual hit a home run with the new line of human fuck-up examples with Human League's "Human" in the background. Very nicely done, and some of the fuck-ups are pretty funny.

    Bob Knight, shilling for Applebee's:

    I like it slightly more than I don't like it.

    I like this one a lot too. Love when the guy throws the football at the tailgate and hits the grill and catches the car on fire. I could see myself doing any of those things in my younger days.

    It's not that I "liked" the commercial, it's just that BW3's overtime commercial was perfectly executed. There's no way you weren't going to keep watching it. It's as interactive with the acutal game as any commercial can be.

    The new AT&T spot with the Bird, Magic, Kareem and Bill Russell is all kinds of awesome.

    I haven't seen a legit commercial in nine months. Thanks, AFN.

    Yeah, that one is pretty funny.

    Bird, who early in his career was about as much of a monosyllabic hick as you could imagine (typical interview answers for him were, "yup," "nope" and "dunno") has actually turned out to be a pretty thoughtful and droll guy.

    On the HBO special on the Bird-Magic rivalry he talks at pretty good length about stuff like his dad's suicide. He is still a "country" guy, but he picks his words well.

    I looked to see if this was a d_b and couldn't find it. If I missed it, I don't care.

    As much as I hate commercials that tend to run frequently, anything with Flo from the insurance commercials. She is funny and does a great job.
