Blergh May 18, 2021 Share May 18, 2021 GEICO has a new one with these homeowners having an afternoon fete singing the praises of their new dream house- but it has the catch that it's in. .. 'bear country'. And right after they say this, the husband gulps,'Bear! Bear!' which prompts the hosts and their guests to race indoors right before. .. Yogi and Boo-Boo in classic cartoon form show up to mooch and eat their food! At NO point do these critters snarl, growl or in any way threaten the humans but the humans react to the moochers as though they're about to at any moment. Of course it's funny on its own accord but the irony is how many viewers under 50 would have seen these onetime Hanna Barbera icons in their original glory? 5 8 Link to comment

Pretty sure I've seen a car commercial (I think that's what it was for) using Crazy Train. Although that was one of Ozzy's solo efforts. (Okay, I checked, it was a Honda Pilot commercial.)

bobalina May 21, 2021 Share May 21, 2021 I love the ZocDoc commercial where the lady has the migraine. When she plunges her head into the freezer you can hear the or go OH. Any body know who freezer lady is? She is brilliant. 1 Link to comment

Bastet May 23, 2021 Share May 23, 2021 I generally really like those "on a spotty network, this is what you hear" commercials (even, quite grudgingly if I'm in the right mood, the one with Tom Brady and Gronk), but with that one I'm distracted by how fucking ugly that shirt she's considering wearing when she thinks it's a regular business dinner is. And then I get way too realistic, and start wondering why in the world when her ... friend? co-worker? ... seems to have said, "Wear something crazy; it's a costume party," she doesn't ask, "What? No one mentioned that." Or even if she for some reason just accepts that, how does discussion of what she should go as not follow, leading the other woman to clear up the confusion? Basically, this would never actually transpire in real life. And in many commercials I just go with such scenarios, but with this one I can't get sucked in. 5 Link to comment

bankerchick May 28, 2021 Share May 28, 2021 Loving the Bud Light Seltzer (?) commercials where someone makes a comment that the lemony taste is 'better than my Grandma's lemonade.' In both of the commercials I saw, Grandma overheard the comment and in one commercial, she takes a knitting needle to the kid's tires and in the other commercial, drops the grandchild's favourite family heirloom down the sink. 'Oops.' 11 Link to comment
Bastet May 30, 2021 Share May 30, 2021 I was waiting for that "not impressed" face. I wonder a bit if she's annoyed by constantly being asked to do it, but, then again, she'd probably rather people remember that than the fall which turned gold to silver. And she's not only having fun with it, she's making money off it, so go ahead McKayla. 9 Link to comment
sempervivum June 1, 2021 Share June 1, 2021 I don't really know what it has to do with selling a car, but I like the Subaru commercial involving a young couple going to a wedding, who get sidetracked onto a mud road, find a lost cat and get the bride's headpiece to her on time. I laugh every time I see the guy in a dandy-ish burgundy velvet jacket with the dirty cat on his lap, while he (the guy, not the cat) wears the headpiece. 12 Link to comment

What is has to do with selling a car is showing the capabilities of the Subaru to get through rain, mud, closed road/shortcut, etc. 7 Link to comment

People with their pets, and people singing "I'd Do Anything for You," from Oliver!. I like the song and sing along and afterwards. And, I'm thinking I need to see Oliver! again, soon. 5 Link to comment

I just hope the guy can scrounge enough to eat until somebody comes to the rescue, but in the meantime he needs to find another stick to make the "P."
