    Your favorite commercial?

    Ok Super Bowl lurkers - what has been your favorite commercial so far?

    I have to say - there have been some funny ones - I like the Career Builder commercials, and the VitaminWater (or whatever it is) with the lizards (I thought it was a Geico commercial!) and with Shaq....were great! My overall favorite because I love the warm and fuzzy animal stuff, was the Budweiser commercial....hooves down!

    And yours?

    I haven't stayed with it 100% but Shaq riding that pony was pretty good.

    I like anything with a monkey in it. There was a series of ads a few years ago with a guy in an office full of monkeys. i would buy a dvd of those ads.

    I just turned it on, and saw a funny/sweet ad about a dude bagging groceries and playing oboe, then going to the Superbowl.

    i was watching the Puppy Bowl too

    There was a story on "this American Life" an NPR show about a guy who wanted to launch The Puppy Channel. Just video of puppies playing and background music. They stole his idea!

    Knot, next year we'll have a Puppy Bowl party. Sadly, I missed their halftime show...

    OMG... I'm having flashes of that "South Park" episode where the kid makes the video of animals in funny hats shot with a wide angle lens...

    I've definitely been wanting an all-dog channel. And an all-cat channel. Why the heck not? There are 40-11 channels out there, many with much less redeeming social value than dogs and cats.

    My son recorded the Puppy Bowl to watch later.

    Here is link for all of the commercials.

    Me too!

    Does anyone else think that the sales genie people are going to get into boatloads of controversy over racial stereotypes? I don't think they were bad- just odd. I am just hoping that I'm not on any of sales genie's lists...

    I definately like the budweiser commercial. My other fav commercial and my bfs (maybe 'cause we're big hotrodders) was the first one of the audi. Great take on the godfather and that's one HOTT car!!!
    The third was the doritos commercial of the guy who used doritos to catch a mouse in a mouse trap. He got his just rewards

    I vote for Shaq on the horse.

    None of us understood the Sobe Life Water or Gatoraide Ad where the lab drank from the bowl and then the camera pans out to the bottles of sports drink and then we see the "Man's Best Friend"

    Things that make you go "huh"?
