Neither a commercial hater or lover. Normally I channel surf during commercials but I will chuckle when I see a good one.

Loved Joe Isuzu. Loved VW un-pimp my ride with Peter Stomare. Geico's celebrity commercials are fantastic. Bud Light's Real American Heroes/Real Men of Genius radio commercials were brilliant too.

Which Jake? The original or the diverse one?

I would never buy insurance from a company with that name nor the puppet master that owns it.

Oh come on! You don't start singing along when "Opportunities" starts playing in the Allstate commercial?

What is hard for me to comprehend is people actually get paid big $$ to come up with this irritating cr-p. When someone does have a good commercial it never sticks around down

I met the woman who plays Flo on the commercials in 2012 at the Grand National Roadster show in Pomona, CA. She is a comedac actress and was chosen for the part. She was going through the building after the show and I was tearing down, she had spike heals on. I yelled at her to take those damn shoes off, she looked down, took them off, and said "what was I thinking?". We had a good laugh then she came over for a cold one... laugh2

Best/funniest commercials on right now are the "Mayhem" ones for Allstate...

Insurance commercials? I thought this was going to be about Flo Racing streaming racing.

What next?


Boy, I like that little Gecko. I wonder how they trained him to do that?

If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Why would a company stop using a successful ad campaign early on in it's existence? shruggy Bad ad campaigns are never successful. Defining "good" and "bad" based on your own preferences doesn't make it so. For example, I don't like the band Rush. At all. Change the station immediately if they come on. But they clearly do not "suck." People get paid big $$ to come up with successful ad campaigns. No success = no more big $$.

Joe Isuzu commercials were great. Wendy's had some doozies, as did ESPN with the Sports Center/nascar ride-alongs.
I don't have any TV services, so I don't see much, but I have chuckled at the geico ones.

Years back there was some that had the Frazier guy voicing a ream of paper, but I can't remember what the product was. They were OK

Typical Wendys:

I can't stand seeing constant lawyer/law firm commercials. Remember when they were not allowed to advertise on TV?

Atleast they have the Duster in those ads! I love seeing Mopars on television!

The two frogs, Bud and Light. My favorite, young couple driving at nite on a lonely road hitchicker on side of road with case of beer under arm but carrying a big ax, he stops she said but he has a big ax, he said, but the case of beer. So he’s in the back and they’re going down the road again , there stands another hitchicker but he has this huge chainsaw the couple look and say ok BUT the ax guy in the back says “but he has a chainsaw” I never stopped laughing

Bud Light has hit some real advertising home runs over the years, no doubt.
