With Christmas being 2 weeks away, I have thought about commercials which are shown at this time of the year. I've never been a huge fan of commercials, but the ones that are put out this time of year are good. My most favorite one is of Santa and the M & M characters meeting and when they both realize they exist, they faint. It first aired in 1996. I posted a link of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utAw2j0khNk In no particular order here are some more of my favorite ones. 1993 Coca Cola Polar Bears enjoy watching the northern lights. 1989 The Hershey Kisses Holiday Bells 1986 Peter comes home, makes a pot of Folgers coffee to wake up and surprise his family on Christmas morning. 1993 Snowman comes inside to enjoy a bowl of Campbells soup Do you enjoy Christmas commercials? What are some of your favorite ones.

Most Christmas commercials are okay, but nothing special. In the UK there is a lot of buzz about the annual John Lewis/Waitrose commercials. Heathrow Airport did two very good teddy bears advert. I liked the second one and I am pleased to say I spotted the 60s pop star - that's how old I am!

You're going to have to tell me who the pop star is. I've watched it twice.

@JudyEv On the second scene in the plane, sitting across from the bear is Petula Clark who is singing the song

We don't watch the commercial channels. Maybe around Christmas it would be a good idea.

I can't think if any off the top of m head, but that Folgers commercial was very poignant

My favorite Christmas commercial was the one where they sang the song I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing...... I think it was a coke commercial also. Telus Communications has some really sweet Christmas commercials also.
