Seriously, men who think this way and behave this way, will end up alone. But to me, it sounds like it's the meanest thing this guy dares to do as a husband and father. In every other way, he's helpful and supportive, but his family sometimes takes advantage of him. 15 Link to comment

She's a little annoying, but when she called the shed a no-bra zone, the camera cut away to a hook with a bra on it. Hilarious. It super bums me out that this woman doesn't feel comfortable taking off her bra in the rest of her house. 9 hours ago, Milburn Stone said: I like everything about this except the announcer line, "Wouldn't it be great if everyone said what they meant?," because the commercial demonstrates how much it would suck if everyone said what they meant. So the logic isn't quite right. A better line perhaps would be, “It’s rare that people say what they mean these days. We do!” Or maybe, "What if people said what they meant? We do!" I hate those commercials because the people aren't saying what they mean, they're saying what they are thinking. Those are two completely different things. Link to comment

Blergh August 30, 2017 Share August 30, 2017 Oddly enough, I like the new Orbit gum one in which this teen girl's parents come home early and are about to walk into her room- at which point her swain insists she hand him his jeans. The swain sees the gum in his jeans's pocket then puts a piece in his mouth. Next thing we see he introduces himself to the parents as Tom- shirtless but wearing his underwear OVER his jeans but her parents oddly smile at him! How (or why) he'd have put on his underwear over the jeans in the moments it took for her father to open the door is a bit puzzling, though. LOL Link to comment

xaxat September 1, 2017 Share September 1, 2017 I think this ad for a chemotherapy related drug is really well done. Almost every other drug ad is full of sunshine, puppies and playing with grand kids. But sometimes a drug is effective simply because it helps to make you feel a little less miserable. 1 Link to comment

Joe Blow September 4, 2017 Share September 4, 2017 I never got much of a vibe from the guy in the All-State commercial that leaves the seat up -- he probably does do it, but I've always thought it was gross people don't close the lid, too. Plus, not to start this whole thing again, but that is BY FAR the most equitable way. He's just saying it because his wife isn't paying attention to him, and his whole family just sits there completely self-absorbed, playing with their phones, playing games, watching movies, doing whatever, while he probably always has to drive. 7 Link to comment

Jaded September 8, 2017 Share September 8, 2017 This one is old. I found it on YT about a month ago while looking for commercials for something else. It's a favorite because it features one of my favorite soap actors and his butt prominently in two scenes. Link to comment

There's an episode of Remington Steele in which Pierce Brosnan is sporting them, and I take the fact even he looks ridiculous in them as definitive proof they ruin everyone. 5 Link to comment

configdotsys September 9, 2017 Share September 9, 2017 (edited) I am smiling ear to ear every time I see the Subaru commercial with the gal and her boyfriend and the dog. The dog hates the guy and growls at him, lies on his side of the bed, and the guy says "he hates my guts." Then they are at some camp site or something and the guy puts his jacket on the girl because she is cold. The doggie comes over and puts his head on the leg of the boyfriend and they all look so happy. I'm smiling just typing this. What a GREAT commercial.

Enero September 13, 2017 Share September 13, 2017 I love the Amazon Prime Commercial where the baby is afraid of the family pet, a golden retriever but loves stuffed lions. The dog is sad because he/she can't bond with the baby so the dad finds a lion mane on Amazon, orders it for the dog and puts it on him. When the baby sees the dog with the mane she is no longer afraid because he resembles a lion. Very cute commercial. ? 12 Link to comment
