No, we really don't love them, and with DVR, do we even see them anymore? Back-to-school season reminds me of my favorite commercial of all time . . .I believe it's for Office Max (or Depot) with the music "It's the most wonderful time of the year" playing in the background. . .parents zipping by happily riding the shopping carts and all the kids looking at the ground with frownie faces stumbling behind them--lol.

Ahhhh. . . I love back to school!

Any favs out there?

    He is from 2 shows I used to watch--Oz on HBO and he was one of the originals (I believe) on Law & Order: SVU--he was Belzer's partner.

    I can't really think of any that I love, but I can sure think of a whole bunch that I hate....they seem to be all car insurance.
    Geico and State Farm (that guy with the dimple just annoys me) and Nationwide with the singing

    I love the Carl's Jr commercial with the robot that tries to eat a chicken sandwich. Every time I see it I'm in tears from laughing so hard. The robot is so sad but the commercial is hilarious.

    I'm at work so can't post a link from YouTube but if you search for Carls Jr Robot it should come up.

    old spice

    ages ago there was this coffee crisp commercial where they were comparing differences between coffee and the bar, and it was hilarious I cried every time

    the new rogers commercial (canada) where the girl is talking about wiping the guys toe fingers off her phone.. LOL every time

    OMG and the staples one where they were walking along looking at prices and then the dad screams and goes "WOW".. then calms down and walks along and then does the same thing again at another price. oh so good.

    I love the cell phone commercial (AT@T maybe) where the three people are sitting at the table and the one guy lays his phone down on the table and his wallpaper is a picture of a spider . The girl sees it and jumps up and starts screaming hysterically. The other guy takes his shoe and smashes the phone to pieces while the phone's owner looks on with utter shock and disbelief. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: That commercial cracks me up every time I see it.

    I love the Geico commercials when the caveman is bowling and 3 Doors Down's "Let me be myself" is playing in the background... haha makes me giggle just thinking about it.

    Also, on the radio, I squeal any time I hear one of the Budweiser "Here's to you Mr. 80 SPF inventory guy" commercials. Love those.

    YES!!! The caveman commercials were the best.

    These aren't ones I like but ones that make me laugh... the engagement commercials for jewelry stores. They are the cheesiest commercials EVER!! My favorite is where a guy and girl are looking out a window and there is a loud thunderclap. She turns, jumps into his arms. He says to her "I'm here", then he his voice gets deeper and he says "I'll always be here".
    So. Very. Lame. I can't stand it!

    favorite commercial of all time was (i believe) a hanes (or some other brand underwear) commercial where there was a bunch of undies on a clothes line (thongs and what not) with music playing in back ground "stuck in the middle with you" i still giggle when i think about that commercial.
