Hmm, the Budweiser horse ad even falls flat, a bit. ---

I had to go back and review the Bud one. It looked like they ‘crossed the line’ when the wagon was coming around the corner. But I think we just didn’t see the fence on the right. ---

> [@Johnny\_L.A](#): > > Wait… What was that one with the ‘Chocolate Rain’ guy? Can’t find it on YouTube, but it was for digital TV company (?), and started with a video of Beyonce, then proceeded to a bunch of internet “things” (Chocolate Rain guy, Numa Numa guy, the twitter bird), being picked up by robotic arms and dumped in a big box…or something. ---

Vizio is building TVs with fairly extensive Internet capabilities. There are already TVs that can handle Netflix streaming, for instance. Same idea, but with more apps. ---

Stupid Audi commercial. Makes you feel bad for being eco-smart. ---

In my opinion, the best commercial I’ve seen so far is the commercial for internet-on-TV Vizio that had the Numa Numa kid and the Chocolate Rain kid (Tay Zonday, I think) and the dramatic look hamster… it was hilarious! It was the first one I actually laughed out loud for. ---

> [@DSYoungEsq](#): > > Stupid Audi commercial. Makes you feel bad for being eco-smart. Agreed, that was almost offensive. What a weird, obnoxious way to promote your green car. ---

I liked the e-trade baby talking to his “girlfriend” … and the “milk addict” came into the picture. That was good, too. ---

It was the first one I actually laughed out loud for. It wouldn’t surprise me if this was the most expensive commercial of the night. But I think it probably gets my vote for the worst. Ugh.
