Oh, I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weiner,
That is what I'd truly like to be-ee.-ee
For if I were an Oscar Meyer weiner,
Everyone would be in love with me!

LOL I still have my Oscar Meyer weiner whistle!!!!!

I think it's for the Subaru car, there's a bunch of them with a dog family (retrievers?). They are really cute.

Saw one yesterday with dogs. It was for E-trade and it featured a man serving some dogs at a table along a river. Then a boat load of poodles goes by and the poodle looks them over. Three roteweilers beging served dinner and it says something to the effect that some "Dogs live better than you do". Because of e-Trade.

I've only seen it once and I get Flo and that dreadful Chevy guy all the time.

Whoever does the Geico commercials has a wonderful sense of humor--sometimes better than others. A recent one is of a young fellow doing chair exercises among young women who are actively exercising. Love it as we have recently started a chair exercise program at our local senior center!

The Coca Cola commercial from many tears ago with Steeler Mean Joe Greene and the little boy.

Especially the perfume commercials around the holidays. They make no sense. Why are women always jumping in water???

But I will tell you I'm so sick of "Flo" I could scream :D

Me too, some do not make any sense at all.

I used to love the lizards on the Budweiser ads. Also there was one with a pug, it got away from its human and was chased all over town, wound up in the back of a taxi. Can't remember what it was for, can't find it on YT.

I no longer have a TV so I can't comment on the current crop. The Budweiser holiday ad always made me homesick, it was filmed in S. Woodstock, VT, not too far from where I live. I was usually down south at the beach at the holidays and wished I could have a snowy Christmas!! Now I am here year round - yikes!!
