Just found this online archive of TV commercials (and apologies if someone here has already posted it):  
[http://www.boardsmag.com/screeningroom/commercials](http://www.boardsmag.com/screeningroom/commercials)

All you have to do is answer _one_ question (e.g., are you an ad exec, ad consumer, etc.), and you can see the archives. Not nearly as comprehensive as the former [AdCritic.com](http://AdCritic.com), but, hey, better than nothing.

FYI, AdCritic was relaunched as a pay service last year, and is more comprehensive than ever.

Urk, that’s true. I should’ve been more clear and added that this is a pretty good _free_ site for commercials.
