Since the Stupid Commercial thread seems to be getting a lot of action, I thought I’d start one that’s similar (in that it deals with commercials).
It goes without saying that a lot of advertisements use overt sexuality to sell their product. Heck probably half the beer commercials; and several sports car commercials do it all the time.
Those would be too easy to list. I’m not talking about ones like the Fiat advertisement; but rather the ones that sell their product a little more subtly.
I have two examples, and unfortunately I can’t find youtube links for both of them.
-
An advertisement for a Samsung Galaxy phonewhere the kid puts a video on her daddy’s phone for him watch, and as the cab is pulling away taking him to the airport the mom says she put one on there too; but he shouldn’t watch it on the plane; and she kind of raises her eyebrows at him.

I’m pretty sure it’s a Nationwide Insurance commercial. The family has a two car accident because one of the spouses accidentally backed in to their other car causing both cars to be damaged. The end of ad shows the woman basically butt grinding into her husband as the final ad jingle plays.
So… what commercials do you like because of their subtle teasing?
