I also laughed out loud on the target add. Love the e-trade, and mayhem. Recalculating is something I hear a lot of when using my gps...

I am so tired of Flo and the Progressive commercials! I always hit the mute or change channels. And wouldn't it be nice if people had as much fun as they do in a beer commercial. Has anyone ever been to a party or a bar where that much fun was being had and where all the people were that attractive? Definitely not a reality setting.

I like the Target lady! I never see the Budweiser ads because I don't watch sports at all. I may have to have DH tell me when one is coming on so I can see them. I don't like the duck or the lizard ads at all. Flo is whacky but fun.

I love the GIACO geacho (sp). The latest one he does is the Texas two step and it's wonderful

And they can string the Target lady right up next to her. So glad that commercial is over!!!!

I still laugh everytime I see the one for dog bones, I think Pedigree's, that has the dogs all smiling and showing off their "human" teeth.

Some of these are better than the reality shows we now have......Just wondering if anyone has favorites..........

My favorite is for State Farm (I think) where the guy runs his car up a telephone post and he calls his insurance agent, only to be reminded that he changed insurance companies, whereupon he starts to cry. The agent says "Are you crying?", and he says "No, I bit my tongue." Totally funny! Edie

The Target lady needs to lay off the caffeine! She is beyond annoying! And the commercial for Kohl's that played last week to the tune of It's Friday? That one actually got me angry. I cannot believe that an ad agency was responsible for seemingly approving rudeness and the kind of behavior that resulted in so many of the issues that happened this weekend!

Favorite commercials? I really don't have any. Most of them annoy me they are so unrealistic. I do like the Bud ones, because in reality they aren't selling beer, but goodwill. I also like the Maxwell House ones - the old one where the son comes home from college and surprises his family and the new incarnation of it.
