Commercials you don't hate

The sloth playing Pictionary is my favorite ever and it will be hard to top that one.

How about a copy cat?

I don’t get it. What is the context? Is “broken ankles” a sport meme? Is there a basketball player known for breaking someone’s ankle in some game?

A wicked crossover dribble is said to break the defender’s ankles.

Aww he went into bowling ball mode

I dont hate the “I’m 84 and I wanna go home” commercials - largely because of “they call me DJ Nana.” I used to rave and seeing a little old lady dop sick beats would make me oh so happy. Maybe in my old age I shall be DJ Nana.

the look on his face when the guy guesses coinslot… priceless!:smiley:

I normally don’t pay much attention to commercials when they are showing, but the new Progressive Big Jim commercial is a hoot. I like it when the animation fades out and we see Jamie is imagining it in his head as he sings the ending very off-key. Then he meekly gets on the phone looking for someone to help him. I like it!

Little Caesars doesn’t run this anymore, but this still makes me laugh. It’s so stupid it’s funny.

Group Session - Progressive Insurance. People in a group therapy session who are ‘turning into their parents’. (‘Why is the door open, are we trying to air condition the whole neighborhood?’ ) - makes me laugh every time! It kind of reminds me of the Simpsons episode where men went to ‘Dad Camp’ to learn how to play catch, teach a kid to ride a bike, and other dad-type things.

No, the best one is where he’s feeding his wife at the dinner table.

GEICO’s gecko on the Oregon Trail has been out since at least March but I just noticed it.

I find that one intensely creepy (as intended, I’m sure), so “best” would only be true for certain values of “good.”

But defense does win championships!

It is creepy - but it’s intentionally creepy and it’s pretty well calibrated. I like those commercials.

That one doesn’t do much for me, but I do enjoy the Mr. Billingsly commercial. The look on the spy’s face as he’s forced to endure a powerpoint presentation says it all.

As a couple of other people said – a dachshund will cause me to stopping ff-ing through commercials immediately.

Agreed.

I quite like the one for Ignite, with Gordon Ramsey and the guy from Goodfellas.

I recently saw this commercial for Oxi Clean, with a lady who lives on a farm with horses and two dobies! That’s me! Well, sort of. We have a farm with two ponies and two dobes and I do laundry. I even have some Oxi Clean already, but I can go buy more.

My new favorite commercial from Capri Sun - just wait for her answer to “do you know how to use that thing?”. It’s both scary and hilarious. And I really want to know why she has a cast on her arm…
