mine has to be the maple leaf commercial where for a job interview checking out the futere employee by feeling his ribs, sniffing him.. etc. then says "your hired" and the narrerator says "you would'nt choose an employee this way. how meat looks is only half the story" I love this one because it is so true(not about meat, it just makes me think of the border collie contravarsy lol)

Mine right now is the HP digital photography commercial. It's where they play that song, "Picture Book," and the people hold up pictures of themselves....it's hard to explain but it's so neat.

Here's a link to where you can watch videos of it. It's the very first set, under "TV Ads - PictureBook".

I love the HP commercials! I think the one with the guy by himself sitting at the computer is the best.

They did a remarkable job with those!

Has anyone seen the TBS commercials . . . where people call in to TBS and explain a situation and the operator types stuff into her computer and decides if the situation is funny . . . and how funny . . . OMG, I love those commercials!

First time we saw it we really thought it was for a new reality show... my daughter was even saying "cool.. when is that coming on?" LOL

Any AFLAC commercial. There's always the old black guy at the end with a bewildered look on his face!

The Advantix and Pedigree food are still my favorites. There's one for Sealy Mattresses where the sales guys are eating coffe grounds and guzzling coffee from a coffee maker to stay awake. There are so many excellent, imaginative commercials out. When I worked in advertsing, eons ago, we never had this technology or imagination on the stuff I worked on. I think some of the commercials are pure genius. The clue to the whole thing is to remember the product. If you can't, the commercial fails, no matter how good it is. i remember learning that in school.

Another favorite of mine is a Dairy Queen commercial, they were advertising a new drink or something like that. This girl is sitting at this table blindfolded and they gave her 2 different drinks(I think a frapachino) one was a different brand and another was Dairy Queen's well the girl gets the Dairy Queen's one and didn't want to give it back, she kept drinking it. So, the people try and take it away from her, she gets up and starts running with the drink (still blindfolded) and goes straight into a wall.

I just saw a commercial for Dove Shampoos and they have Wilma, Velma and Jane (from Flinstones, Scooby Doo and Jetsons) talking about their hair. Then they use Dove shampoos anf their hair is gorgeous!
