I remember most of the ones you all have written about so far. They just don't come up with the catchy jingles like they used to.
Who remembers "An-ti-ci-pa-a-a-tion is makin' me wait!" (Heinz ? ketchup) |
I enjoy the AFLAC duck commercials.
The one from childhood that I just loved was a dog puppet who sang, "N-E-S-T-L-E-S. Nestle's makes the very best....chocolate." The word chocolate was drawn out and the puppets mouth was wide open. Simple, but effective. |
Seems like most of today's commercials are about prescription medications where they spend most of the time talking about the side effects. Depressing! I wish these pharmaceutical companies would stop spending so much money on these commercials and would instead provide the meds at a more affordable cost for everyone. The other half of the commercials seems to be about lawyers wanting you to sue the pharmaceutical and medical supply companies.
My favorite current commercial is the one where the two toddlers are sitting on their dad's (or grandpa's) feet and hanging on to his legs while he walks around pretending to be a monster. (Something's got a hold on me). |
I wish QB had a 'like' button. There are so many commercials you all have mentioned that I remember and liked a lot.

Love the commercials with the talking babies... tho I was so fascinated by the funny babies that I forget what was actually being advertised.
I also love the Geico cavemen. The gecko... not so much. Guess they ran out of jokes for the cavemen, as they are long gone. :( |
We found the Hamm’s Beer bear commercial online and watched a few with our grandson who had never seen it. So cute. I also liked the “Frito Bandito”
You didn’t ask for a hated commercial but there used to be a local one about replacement windows. She said she was the owner of the replacement company and for some reason I don’t recall, she was telling a lie and proudly admitting it. Made me mad. Every morning I hear a car salesman & his grown daughter on the radio. Her whiny voice is like fingernails on a blackboard to me, so if I can, I leave the room for a while. |
Oh! The talking babies were the Etrade babies.
|
The Faygo song! And "do you know exactly how to eat an Oreo?"

It's not that old, but I love the Subaru commercial with the grandparents, the giant tree that has to come down and the new dining room table. That one makes me tear up every time.

I like any commercials with animals in them, especially dogs. But two come to mind that I will always remember: Budweiser Superbowl about a man training a Clydesdale horse and they reunite years later ..... and dog keeps running away to be with his friend, a horse.

Most commercials today seem to be created by Kindergarten kids---NO, Kindergarten kids are more intelligent than the "artists" hired by advertising firms today. Is it a 'cheap hire', or do they REALLY think we are a stupid audience? I agree that the ''Flo'' commercials are annoying, but not as much as the Liberty, Liberty, Liberty ones!
|
I totally agree. Flo needs to go. One of my favorites was the camel and What Day is This?

But I will tell you I'm so sick of "Flo" I could scream :D |
You are so right. I hate that Liberty commercial--every other commercial break.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuAAXCOUH6Qaway https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7p_3lITiK_Q The commercial that really makes me touches me is the Bud 9/11 honor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1qEZHhJubY |
As many times as I've seen the 9/11 Budweiser commercial, tears still come to my eyes.
|
I hate FLO!!! she needs to go , and quickly,. she is so annoying, and that orange/red lipstick has to go with her. The insurance commercials are annoying. the ones they have with the funny things, I think it's Farmers. they are cute.
I like the one with the dogs. They get themselves into different situations. I like the first day of school one. I LOVE the Cyrus commercial for NYState Lottery. Do they have it in other states, just worded differently. the shop owner closes for the night. You see Cyrus get a burlap bag, and put a lottery ticket in and puts it around his neck. next, you see him hailing a bus, the asking to get off. he asses santa on a roof top, goes down the chiminey and puts the ticket in his owners stocking. so cute. I wait every year now for this commercial. |
