I can’t believe I forgot the [Unpimp Ze Auto](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=11349822&postcount=75) series! I love those commercials because I hate those cars so very much.

The Bud Light commercial for the secret “man cave” hidden within a circular rack of women’s clothing to soothe the poor hubby that’s been dragged along for “approval mode” of his wife’s clothing choices is pretty good. I’ve often wished such a retreat from that particular grind existed.

I mean, they have a TV with the game on, beers and everything! Right in the women’s clothing department! And nobody is the wiser!

Well, except Bud, I suppose, but still…

You obviously have not earned your way in yet. 😉

I’m really surprised I still like these because they truly run them into the ground but I laugh every single time at the one where the guy has the neighborhood kids acting out the soap opera because his DVR only records two shows at a time or something. I think it’s because everyone in the commercial makes the hammiest expressions and wears the strangest clothes or something. And then the one where he’s watching TV in the bathroom and offers his friend a tomato and then goes…“_think_ about it?..” when he declines. I wonder how many people are wooshed by that.

I like the Sonic series with the characters sitting in the front seat. The whipcrack punch sound effect to accentuate the jokes cracks me up.

I like the crazy mom look rollover minutes lady and her smart-alecky son commercials. It hits close to home- families have the stupidest arguments over little financial things.

I’m not tired of the KGB commercials, yet. It may have something to do with the redhead.

It’s not quite real but it looks real, and it always makes me laugh. Well, maybe it’s a real ad for the production company. Sort of.

I cant remember the name of the bank but I have seen a couple commercials from them.  
One of them features two little girls being offered a pony. The 1st girl says yes she would like one and gets a little plastic toy pony and seems pleased with it… until girl two gets her pony which is a real one.

Anybody know the name of the bank?

I love the intel “rock star” ad.

The idea of nerd worship appeals to me on some level.

I’ve never seen or heard any of these commercials. Probably a good thing. I think I’ve only ever liked about 10 commercials in my life.

I love the T-Mobile commercial w/ **David Costabile** from “The Wire” and “Flight of the Conchords” as a single dad talking to his daughters about his internet dating and how “just because we have unlimited calling doesn’t mean you have to tell everyone everything.”

This one: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJqYh0X6bgM](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJqYh0X6bgM)

It doesn’t make much sense - dogs can’t even eat chocolate! But they look like they’re having a lot of fun. And the song (the most repeated phrase means “I’m a butterfly”) fits great.
