[QUOTE=Hyperelastic] Who played him?! He was a [real person](http://hnn.us/articles/1145.html). He retired before I was born, so I never saw the commercials, but I assume he played himself.[/QUOTE Harley Earl died in 1969, but the ads came out last year - with an actor playing the ghost of Harley Earl. Unless that was a _whoosh_. . . in which case, never mind. ---

In one of those Old Spice Red Zone Body Spray commercials, the one where the couple is camping and the woman hugs her SO and gets flashbacks to all the wonderful times they’ve had together, her SO is _hot_. It doesn’t hurt that he looks like a guy I had an uber-crush on for far too long. ---

There’s a girl that’s in three commercials that I can think of, but the only one I remember clearly is a Levi’s Jeans commercial. There’s a dog running with a pair of jeans in its mouth to a man’s apartment. The woman in question shows up pantless in the doorway. Anyone know who she is? ---

OK, after all the fluff has settled, it has to be the brunette on the Viagra ads. The sound of her voice and the twinkle in her eye…YahHow Zaa!!! ---

I second (or third) the Listerine guy. He’s mucho cute. Also, and don’t pelt me with stones for saying this… I think that guy in the Brawny paper towel ads is sexy! You know, the “It’s Mrs. Parker’s birthday, uh oh, someone’s been a naughty little boy” or whatever it says. Yes the commercial is totally cheesy. But I like that guy. Definitely. ---

I’ve never heard of Brooklyn gum or seen their ads on TV (it’s a English product, I think) but here’s a link to one of their commercials. The girl (not the toe-nail chick) is one of the sexiest, most wicked-ess awesome ladies that I’ve ever seen in an ad. Needless to say, she does a lot for me. **Warning** - the website starts up with the ad immediately when you click on it. Make sure your audio’s off if you’re in an unappropriate location. ---

How about the Levis ad with the guy in boxer shorts bringing flowers to his ex-girlfriend so she’ll let him into the apartment so he can grab his pants and leave her? What a moron. That girl was _fine_. And wandering around in her underwear. ---

> [@Nordic](#): > > Here’s a random one: anyone remember a commercial from a couple of years ago where a guy and girl are driving down a city street, and the activities of the people on the street (bouncing a basketball, etc) syncs with the music on the radio, and when they get to the end of the street the guy says, “Well that was interesting” ? Now _he_ was pretty. That’s one of my absolute favorite commercials of all time, but I don’t remember ever seeing a good shot of the guy’s face. A year or maybe a little more ago, there was a commercial for some malt beverage or something. This hot, hot, HOT bald man was in the bathroom, shaving, with a bottle of said malt beverage on the counter next to him. A hand reaches out of the shower and takes it, and he gets a big, mischievous grin and goes in (fully clothed) after it. If that had been my bathroom, he wouldn’t have been permitted to wear clothes. Damn was he ever fine. ---

Oh the first thing I thought of when reading the thread title, was the new Puma commercials. With hot sexy guys running and tumbling around. In just underwear. I think they’re athletes i’m supposed to know, but i’m too busy staring! I was, and am still, transfixed. Is that Red Sox’s Johnny Damon running around in one of those ads?! In just… underwear. I really don’t care who it is, actually. 😃 Must… Buy… Puma stuff. ---

[QUOTE=Excalibre] That’s one of my absolute favorite commercials of all time, but I don’t remember ever seeing a good shot of the guy’s face. [QUOTE] And the woman in the commercail also played Nina, on the first two seasons of 24. Am I the only person who thinks that the Leptoprin girl is hot, mainly because she looks a lot like Gillian Anderson? ---

> [@Troy McClure SF](#): > > If you can remember more about the episode, he may be on IMDb. I’ve tracked down a couple of folks through _L&O_, since it seems to be a pre-requisite for being an actor/tress. Really? It’s been a while since I’ve looked for him now, but I’m pretty sure it was Episode 142, Entrapment, from [season seven](http://www.dickinson.edu/~buchan/season7.html). He played a doctor, I think an emergency room doctor - he only had maybe 2 lines, and he’s not listed on the site I linked above. If you can help me find him, I’d be eternally grateful! 😉 ---

Stargazer, take a look at [this](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098844/guests). It’s the guest appearances list for Law & Order; if you search for Entrapment, there’s a list of guys with links to their IMDB listings. ---
