That Draft Kings commercial cracks me up every time!

Has the WetWipes commercial been mentioned yet? It’s the one with the couple out in the woods, and the guy is wearing the baby in a front slung carrier. Ah Nature, and then the baby smiles.

I saw the [Wells Fargo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOdwiy7S84Q) commercial featuring Steve Martin and Martin Short in their Only Murders in the Building characters. Unsurprisingly, it aired during OMITB. At first I didn’t even realize it was a commercial. I’d watch all the commercials if they were as amusing as this one.

I like the Ubereats with Jerry Rice, Matthew McConaughey and some 49er. Football is all about making you eat more,

Those four weird pop ups that covered the screen towards the end meant we really could see what was going on. Annoying.

I couldn’t find a version that was the “long” version and didn’t have them. Stupid annoying! WTF, youtubers!

That was frickin’ hilarious! I had to cover my mouth from LOLing 'cuz I’m at work.

That really is funny. Sorry if this is obvious (or totally off the mark) but it seems to be mocking conspiracy theories, with MC as a doofus who believes them. Is this a shot at MAGAts? Or perhaps just a general laugh at people who believe stupid things they see in the media?

Snickers has been on point lately…first the one where the hungry lady playing a board game is a little too eager to _swap partners_, and now the one with the twerking animatronic werewolf (the kid’s expression when he realizes what’s going on really makes that one perfect).

I enjoy [this one for Air France](https://www.facebook.com/adsoftheworld/videos/air-france/795697674735101/). The version I see on tv is shorter, starting at or shortly before her climbing the stair to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Just beautiful.

That was lovely. I wonder if, in casting the model, they had to find one who didn’t suffer from acrophobia.

I get a bit of vertigo just watching it. Same as the one with the [flight attendant atop the Burj Khalifa](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXI4JYUyxA4), only this one is more creative, and so beautiful.

With that dress, the elevator was not an option.

If heights bother you don’t watch _The Walk_. It’s about the guy who tight rope walked between the Twin Towers.

I agree it’s a gorgeous ad, but all I can think is that there is no way that train wouldn’t get caught on something every few meters

I thought the same. Not to mention those steps are filthy, from what I heard, and walking in bare feet- ecchhh.
