I should clarify: these do not have to be mob-related (obviously).

I'm probably in a minority, but I love the Geico caveman. I really dislike the perky girl from Progressive.

I like all the Free Credit Report Dot Com commercials....especially the one where they are in the guy's wife's parents basement. Note that in the following commercial at the Rennaisance fair she is pregnant.

As it turns out these ads are presently under some kind of investigation because the service they are touting is not really "Free."

Well dontomasso here is where you & I will have to agree to disagree. I hate all those commercials. And I would love to be behind the wheel of an 18 wheeler and run over those 3 idiots.

I've always liked the ones for Bush's baked beans, where Duke is always trying to sell the secret family recipe. lol

The company itself has been listed by several watchdog organizations as fraudulent, AFAIK.

I like those too. Also, in the Rennaissance Fair one there is a scene of an old woman in apprpriate costume scowling. She is also a patron in the fish restaurant one who is scowling.

Really, Kly? Those have been around for the better part of a decade, if not more...

Either I never took notice, or I need to start watching more tv. But the Bush's Grillin beans line is fantastic, especially the Southern something-or-other kind.

This is new to California recently, advertising NY's "Chase" Bank (is that same as Chase/Manhatten?). With the "Instant Karma" in the background, and a California touch, it's just really neat, I think. Anyway, I like it. smile

The "Magic Fridge" commercial always cracked me up.

Budweiser is always good for a commercial or two.

Here is my favorite commercial. It aired only once, a few years back, but its effect is still just as chilling today.

I loved this one as well. Their commercials are usually funny. It's nice to have a sentimental one every once in awhile.

I like the ESPN one, with the guy who can't remember the names of his wife and son.

Another great one, that I cant remember what it was for, but was very funny (maybe someone here will know what I'm talking about: it has high school students taking exam, and last one to stay in class is a second too late to hand it in. I wont tell the rest, I dont want to ruin it, but if you know what I'm talking about, then maybe you can find it on youtube. I'd search for it myself, but I dont even remember what it was for...

He scares the crap out of me. I don't know which one scares me more - when he wakes the people up in the middle of the night, or when the people open their blinds in the morning and find him outside.

Yes I am. When one of his commercials comes on I turn the channel. The way you feel about clowns I feel about the Burger King guy.
