Do you have a TV commercial that you just can't stand? One that gets under your skin and you can't watch or even hear it one more time? How about commercials that make you laugh or cry?
I find that many of the Geico commercials are funny and when they had the super bowl weekend with all the commercials, they are almost like mini movies. Some are just so darned funny.
I also have a few, that I cannot think of at the moment who does them, that actually bring some memories to mind that make me cry.
How about you?

My favorite commercials for awhile have been the Capitol One commercials. Those vikings are a lot of fun to watch, but they've had other really clever ones too.

YES! I love the vikings!! They are too funny and each time they do a commercial, they find something new and different to add to it. I like many commercials as I find them quite entertaining.

Hello. I haven't really watched too much television lately, but I did see a commercial last night that I just didn't understand. It was for the new Chevy Traverse and they said it was going to be like a "short series" type of commercial. It was labeled "my manny". I didn't understand what that meant and who the guy was in the commercial. Was he a man nanny or the woman's man or what? It was all very confusing and made no sense whatsoever. That's all I can think of though. I did like the superbowl commercials where they would show clips of coaches talking and the guys asking questions that fit the script... but it was regarding the budweiser (I don't drink at all but found the scripting to be very humerous). I also liked those commercials for Etrade where the baby was doing trades. I worked in the financial industry though, so I just found that to be pretty humerous as well.

Yes, the Etrade baby ones are really funny.
Have you seen the one where the guy is taking a shower and singing opera and it turns out he was installing it. He comes out, with wet hair and tucking in his shirt and tells the owners that their shower is done and the looks on their faces are funny.

thing which the producers present.Standard of TV show decreasing day by day in our country.

I love the Budwieser Clyesdale commercials! I'm a horse lover and I just love those commercials! I laugh at the one where the dog retrieves the stick and clydesdale goes and retrieves this very huge tree branch and drops in front of the guy, who says "show off"! I also love the one were a young clyesdale kicks a snowball at an adult and the adult horse goes over to this tree bangs against it and knock the snow off the tree onto the youngest! Both of these commercials always make me laugh! They are classic!

I used to love the Taco Bell commercials with the Chihuahua. The current commercial that gets on my nerves is the one with the couple on the bike and the girl has her long arm pit hair trailing in the wind. It's gross. Funny to some sure, I have no problem. But I don't like it.
