riley702 August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 (edited) I was kinda meh on Esurance's "Sorta you" series of ads, but I flove "Sorta Marge", as it mercilessly skewers every beauty queen who has ever biffed the thoughtful/controversial Q&A portion of a pageant. I also love that, as she gazes out over an imaginary audience, the boss looks behind him, as if he's thinking "Who the hell are you talking to, lady?"

Rinaldo September 1, 2015 Share September 1, 2015 I'll have to go back and re-read [Pauline Kael] on [Cat Ballou]. Maybe I am remembering wrong. But I'll bet she liked Jane Fonda in it. She always liked Jane Fonda! Keeping it very brief (I considered taking it to PM, but I prefer to continue conversations where they started), here are some sentences from her review. Obviously they don't do justice to the flow of the whole article: "It's uneven, lumpy, coy, and obvious, a self-consciously cute movie.... Something's always happening all right, too much is happening, but Hecht [the producer] is mistaken in thinking there's never a dull moment. There are some nice things: Nat King Cole singing "They'll Never Make Her Cry"; Lee Marvin's ritual preparations for a gunfight; an almost brilliant bit of graveyard humor -- when Marvin mistakes funeral candles for a birthday celebration; occasional good lines. But mainly it is a series of sort-of-funny and trying-to-be-funny ideas..." She really doesn't say anything specifically about Jane Fonda; her liking of Fonda came a few years later. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2715-favorite-commercials/page/28/#findComment-1465767

theatremouse September 2, 2015 Share September 2, 2015 (edited) They do have a tennis package. They let you watch multiple matches onscreen at the same time for the Slams, but since they're pushing that based on features, the ads for it are generally for the package itself, not just DirectTV. That said, most of the ads I see for the tennis package air on the Tennis Channel, or during tennis matches on ESPN. Whereas presumably they think the US market for football is larger, so we see the football ads all over the place.
