Any Sonic commercial. They are all awesome. My favorites include is the [“Tea”](http://www.splendad.com/ads/show/1133-Sonic-Iced-T) one. The 2 guys ones are the best, but the ones with the couple are also funny. Whenever these commercials come on I get happier. I love how the characters can be such idiots. It is my family. ---

The nextel commercial with the guy bothering the dots, or whatever. ---

[QUOTE=cochrane] I mentioned them in the other thread, but I do like the Jack Link’s Sasquatch commercials. I think they’re pretty humorous. [/QUOTE] Me too. Reminds me of **Tenacious D.** ---

The only commercial that really springs to mind that made me laugh in recent memory was the one for Orbit gum with [three folks getting into a heated argument over what one assumes are accusations of infidelity](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEJJUGJZxpU). _What the french, toast?_ ---

[QUOTE=Sleeps With Butterflies] [$11.50 Hamburger](http://youtube.com/watch?v=aBYrdi1vEAI) although I like any of the commercials with that guy. [/QUOTE] The guy with the accent saying “Certified purveyors of the Miller High Life!” makes my day. I have no idea why. Also, I like the commercial with the woman being followed by her piggy bank. It’s really just that jaunty little whistling tune I like. ---

I love the new Taco Bell ad that features an older brother advising his younger brother never to own a lap dog or date a woman with dragon tattoos, only to have his girlfriend plop a small dog into his lap with “Walk your dog.” It’s a shame they seem to be running a shortened version all the time now. ---

I laugh every time at the one for the quiet bathroom fan, where the guy’s comb-over is standing straight up. “It’s not working.” Wife (with a classic look and sigh): “It’s working.” ---

Taco Bell-[Carne Asade Lions](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuMp9iBaW3g) To my knowledge there aren’t too many Taco Bells located in the African Savannah, but hell they’re lions and they talk so who cares. ---

Mentioned in the thread about commercials you hate: I like the jerky adverts where they are taunting bigfoot. ---

There’s one for Starburst that I like, although I’m sure someone will mention it in the least likable commercials thread. Two men are working in a marine park. One is brushing the teeth of what appears to be a porpoise. His buddy offers him a Starburst, saying, “They’re really juicy.” The first man puts it in his mouth and says, “You’re right. These really are juicy. It’s a good thing we’re wearing our wet suits.” Both men then laugh. The porpoise spits out a huge quantity of water and fish all over the two men. The first man says, “It was funny. These Starbursts really are juicy, so it really was a good thing we’re wearing our wet suits.” The porpoise then spits out several more gallons of water. The guy then says, "Fine. Brush your own teeth. We’ll just go over hear and eat our juicy Starbursts. ---

Missed the edit window: I also wanted to add the Capital One commercial where the woman takes out a home loan at her bank. After signing the papers, she is literally presented with a monkey (OK, a chimp) on her back. The chimp causes random havoc such as breaking things and pulling money from the woman’s purse and scattering it in the air. It ends with the chimp snatching a drink out of her hand and lobbing it at a police car. ---

I love the badger commercials that Johnson Automotive, a local car dealership is running. They’re based on the premise that you don’t want to have an obnoxious car salesman badgering you. My favorite one is still the first one: [The sexist badger](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvoaztR140Q&mode=related&search=) Other good ones include [Wiggle Room](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGZxaDKmtwE&mode=related&search=), [popcorn break](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KVbjpFVe1w&mode=related&search=), [joy ride](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7pJZv-0TDc&mode=related&search=), and [Ready for a deal](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUqw2g6NySY&mode=related&search=).
