There was ONE (count’em, one) of the chiahuahua commercials that amused me, but I think it was pretty early, where he was presented as this Che Guevara styled revolutionary leader on campaign, but it didn’t last long (too red-commie of an ad for TV?).  
I do hate the dog, but there is no reasonable excuse for even thinking for a moment that the pepsi imp is less irritating. Those commercials leave me rocking back and forth with my eyes closed and my arms around my head and ears, going “LA LA LA! LA LA LA!” until it’s over. Shudder.

Sounds like somekind of communist plot, to me.

I’m calling the NSA (screw the FBI - NSA kicks their “civilian reviewed” ass).

Thank god, Michi. I thought I was the only one who hated Bad Andy. Bad Andy-Good Pizza, my ass. Bad Andy-Tree Shredder. That would be a great commercial.
