I just saw [this one involving a sasquatch fasmily and a mattress protector](https://www.truthinadvertising.org/can-your-mattress-protector-stand-up-to-sasquatch/), and if the product is half as good as that commercial I’m going to order a half dozen. ---

I had to double-check which brand of car it was, but Subaru has a series of “Driving dog family” commercials; my fave is [this one where they go to the car wash](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyNDhKYnMXM). ---

I like the commercial where they play the first two verses of Sounds Of Silence. I have no idea what the commercial is for, I just really like the song. I will probably grow to hate both song and commercial if it plays too frequently for too long, though. ---

A lot of the youtube links in the previous thread are dead now. I think having a new thread is good. I don’t care for Walmart as a company but I do like many of their recent commercials.

I like this Bounty commercial with the kid learning to eat with chopsticks. The food falls off and slides to the edge of the table and everybody yells “NOOOO!” in slow motion. The dog says “YESSS!” and catches it in his mouth. [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cQYdY5rc0I) ---

I quite liked the TNT commercial. It really had me piqued when I first watched it, and for such a good ad, it didn’t look like tons of money was spent on it.
