LOL! RQ, I definitely remember the stain commercial . . . that was hilarious!

Do you remember the Skittles commercial with the singing bunny? LAAAA lalala LAAAAAAAAA! I looooved that one!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEJJUGJZxpU

This commercial is responsible for a good bit of my "I'm around children and must watch my normally profane mouth" substitutions. LURVE it! Oh, and this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMoxC4vb1eA. My great grandmother always said "great googly moogly", so it cracked me up.

lol I totally agree about the stain commercial. It made me giggle every time.

The singing bunny! I remember that one too.

Some commercials are just classic.

My sister & I still occasionally break out into the song from this commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYX_zhlTDr8

I love a good commercial

And this is one of DH's favorites: The Flat Earth Flying Pig! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWHOYZP9280

Since I'm owned by a French Bulldog, I looooove this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3OJckoFGaM

Oh THAT singing bunny!
Hilarious

This one is hilarious!!! (But possibly not work-appropriate! LOL!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rROvCnLu9hU

There are some fabulous commercials alright. I'll post a few from across the pond that ye mightn't have seen!

My favourite one out here at the moment is for Boursin French cheese. So funny and unexpected. Watch til the end!:

Of course, the famous Cadbury's Chocolate "Gorilla" ad. I remember when I first saw this, thinking "What is the gorilla gonna do????". Brilliant.

OMG the "disobedient granny" ad for Carte d'Or ice cream...hahahaha, when she bangs the piano on the way out...

All Guinness ads are fantastic, but this one has always been the best. It's probably over ten years old, but many of you outside Ireland/UK may not have seen it so I'll share it! I don't know how many are familiar with the art of pouring a pint of Guinness, but what you have to do is pour it about 4/5 full, then wait a few minutes for it to settle. Then you can finish pouring. Then you have to wait another minute for that to settle. Then you can drink

Check out the "horse surfer" ad too. Amazing. And the evolution one. And the fridge man. I could spend all day watching Guinness ads, I think they're fantastic!

Here's another old classic you may not have seen outside the UK/Ireland, the Wine Gums one:

Here's a funny "Ireland meets the US" one for Carlsberg:

Another funny Irish Carlsberg one. (Background: most of us forget how to speak Gaelic as soon as we leave school.)

My new favorite one is Geico where they say why former drill sergeants should not be therapists.

Great topic radiant - I love a funny or intelligent ad!

Check out "wonderboy man" - who makes himself some entertainment out of his GF's sanitary pads (clean ones boys!) trust me, very funny:

Libra with wings ad Cracks me up every time.

I recall seeing a fantastic new ad the other day that Fi and I loved, but it's eluding me right now...I shall be back when it comes to me

This isn't it, but my Fi seems to love this one:
musical AAMI insurance ad

hahaha at the libra one. How do you do the links like that, so it's writing and not just the URL?? I haven't figured it out on PS2.

oh yes how can I forget! Its the Old Spice ads with Isaiha Mustafa -specifically the 'man your man could smell like"one As I'm on my phone I dont have the direct link but just go to oldspice.com and you will find them all. Funniest ads ever- trust me, check it out!

hi porridge glad you liked it - have you seen the old spice ones?! Ok for the link, once you press the url button,instead of putting your web address in the middle of the two boxes you put it inside the first using an = sign, than you put your link name between the two boxes. this is an example incase that doesnt make much sense:
[url = address of your web page] name of your link [/url] hope that helps!

bwahahaha AJ, those Old Spice commercials are hysterical! I was watching tv one day and one came on and I tell you what, I laughed SO hard!

There's one from a few years back, TMobile I think? Amp Moblie..something. Anyway, this guys in the bathroom singing a song, and starts rocking out and then someone comes in and he's like "..Hi" JD and I used to pull it up on youtube and watch it over and over.

Quiznos used to have commercials w/these weird hamster looking things and they had this horrible gravely shrill Gilbert Gottfried voice but I couldn't help but love the commercials.

Jack in the Box years ago when my cousin and I were living in Arizona had the funniest commercials and we used to say parts of them all the time.

And the Snickers commercial w/Betty White cracks me up.

Thanks AJ! Those ads are so funny!

ETA I'm on a horse!! Bwah ha ha ha. My, but that is one handsome man!

Am I the only one who is relieved those poor, sad mops from the Swiffer commercials now have new love interests? I used to actually feel sorry for the rejected mops. Now when a banished mop sees a lovely bowling bowl or lawn flamingo and the song "Who's That Lady?" begins to play, I feel glad for them.

aww the poor mops. Speaking of that song and the Love Stinks versions, does anyone else have the commercials immediately pop into mind when you hear those songs? A while ago there was a commercial of a rooster strutting back and forth on a fence to "I'm Just a Love Machine" and that's all I can see in my head when I hear the song!

"Low Rider" by War plays on a commercial where a dog hypnotizes his owner and steals his truck. The dog drives around picking up all of his doggie friends and that song is playing on the radio. Hilarious!

Hahaha! Classic Snickers commercial from when I was younger.

OMG that's funny! I've never seen that one before! I love his raised brow.

I know right isnt "I'm on a horse" just the perfect end?! Its actually really quite interesting though I was watching something on how that ad is made and apart from one or two tiny things none of it is CG-on the other side of things pretty intelligent too marketing this old fashioned product to a new generation.

Great posts everyone. I had never seen the singing bunny one. I love bunnies dont get me wrong, but I would never trade my skittles for a singing bunny especially one that doesnt know any recent jams.

That maxi pad commercial made me laugh out loud. I had never seen that before!

Oh, RQ, come ON! Imagine the bazillions of dollars you could make with your singing bunny . . . that would buy a LOT of Skittles! LOL!

And has anyone seen the Snickers "diva" commercial? Hilarious!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLrsCnBvQFo

ETA: Ahhhh, yes . . . those Old Spice ads always make me drop whatever I'm doing and pay 100% attention to the TV!

I was totally going to bring up the old spice commercials. They are my favorite ones on TV at the moment.
