Oh I'm sure that even for those of u who don't watch the tv, as much as some of us do, that u must have a favourite advert, either an old classic, or a new one.
My new personal favourites are the Budweiser adverts and the Car ad that stars John McEnroe getting into a fit over a parking ticket.

I like the commercial for insurance where a gray squirrel runs into the road infront of an oncoming car. The car swerves to miss the squirrel and wrecks. Then another squirrel shows up and they do high fives and chuckle in the middle of the road :wah:

I love the FedEx commercial with the dinosaurs. Also, there is a commercial for talking to your kids about drugs. Teenage boy comes home and dad has the family room set up so that they can "chat" about the birds and the bees - complete with visual aids and books.
I HATE the car commercial where the guy says goodbye to his wife, puts on a helmet and parachutes off the cliff they live on to get down to his SUV. It leads one to ask - how does he get UP the side of that cliff at the end of the day?

I like those as well Arny....in fact most of the car adverts are good. I gues they've got all the money behind them.

That's AWESOME!!
mine is an older commercial. i can't remember what it is for. i think it's a camera commercial. Anyway...
a family is walking around the Pacific Northwest taking photos. There's some bushes rustling up ahead so everyone gets really quiet. the something walks across the path and Dad snaps a bunck of photos.
Later that week the family is home playing in the backyard and Big Foot jumps out, snaps a thousand pics with the flash and hollers,
"HA! See how YOU like it!" then runs away.

Has anyone seen the recent advertisement for Quinn's? If so, what do you think?
I don't know what it is but the voiceover/song really fascinates me.

I also love the one where a puppet starts dancing, then theres some animated figures that look like the puppet that join in, and then a bloke who looks the same joins in and they're all dancing in the same awkward way as the original puppet. Some beer ad. Can't remember which one

or the one with loads of coloured balls pelting down the hill - can't remember what it's for though.
Think it's for Sony TV's, love it as well and the music's good too.
My current fave is the Hotpoint Aqualtis ad, where the clothes inside the machine look like underwater sealife.
