That is pretty great.

If you click on the ‘‘see how we made this video’’ link it’s pretty funny too.

That’s great. The young woman who sells the trailers is pretty hot, even with the mole and the cigarette…

Yeah, and you get the sense she’ll be hot for only 5 more years or less.

Wow. If they ever do a live action Family Guy they need look no further for their Cleveland.

Nah, here’s my candidate for best commercial ever.

[“It’s in the hole.”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4fpTpTDSqs)

And it has not been banned, by the way. I’ve seen it recently, only with the phrase “He’s got his head up his ass” censored with the word “butt” in place.

Anybody have a link to the new tampon commercial where the lady is all in white, and is talking about how women trust her because she is in the right demographic? I just saw it yesterday and it is hysterical…

[This one](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOM4AMV050A)

When my wife saw it, she said “This is the same company that had commercials featuring a dancing red dot as ‘your period’.”

I always hated the ones that made it seem that women LOVED getting their periods …
