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! Because of her, I'm NOT willingly shopping at Kohl's this year at all and I honestly think I'm going to let them know that.

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.

To be honest, commercial time is usually when I run to put a load of laundry in the dryer and start another in the washer. I also do dishes this way -- in shifts. It'a amazing how much housework (and exercise ) ) one can get into the time slot of a commercial. They are getting longer and longer. I mostly watch movies so the commercials are not a closely spaced. Perhaps that is why they are longer. When I'm sewing, my TV is at my back, so I mostly listen unless I have ripping to do.

I agree I do not like the Target woman, but we are talking about her so I guess the AD agency would call that a good thing. But that is what advertising is all about, it catches some people and others not so much.

YouTube has all the commercials what fun romp to watch Big Foot get agitated and seek revenge! Just search "Messin' with Sasquatch" on YouTube and you'll get all the commercials.

Isn't that gal in the Target commercials a kick in the pants?!! She is so incredibly goofy and annoying that I just have to laugh every time I see her....especially the one where she records all those greeting cards and walks away with this "proud of herself" look on her face. Right now, that is one of my fav commercials.

Our favorite is the one, such a great commercial I never noticed the company, where he's a GPS who's directing a man to the destination. When he yells "recalculating" it breaks us up because we've been there with our GPS and it's barking directions.
