So what is your all time favorite commercial?

A Kia commercial spoofing the song "Maniac" from the terrible generic 80s movie "Flashdance".

Also, the phrase "Pain is no match, for the Icy-Hot patch" has gotten stuck in my head from all their commercials. Oh curse thee, marketing departments!

We have Youtube Thread for stuff like this.

So what do I do, say "hay guyz post commercials now" in that thread?

I think this thread is perfectly justified, but if a mod disagrees, feel free to lock/move/merge.

I'm the kind of person who tends to hate 66% of all commercials. The other 33% I just don't care about.

I have seen some enjoyable ones, though. Unfortunately, some of my favorites aren't on YouTube since they're only for local stores. I do like many of Sega's commercials, though. I always found them entertaining.

As for my very favorite? I'll have to get back to you on that.

This is probably the funniest commercial I've ever seen. Nothing can top this one.

What about the other 1%? Or are they so bad, you dont care to mention them?

There used to be a programme on ITV called "Tarrant on TV" which showed the funniest adverts from around the world (Included quite a lot of adult/sexual adverts too, which is why we loved it when we were younger

)

Wonder if i can fish out an episode online..

So everyone's favorite chamois cloth peddler started selling a chopping tool. I thought "where have I seen that before?" The answer: Ronco was selling that thing ages ago.

A mashup was born.

This was fun to put together. It's not a YTP by any means, but it's funny how the old audio can line up with the new commercial.

I don't know if either party will get POed about this being up on YouTube, but some free advertising can't hurt.

For my favourite, I have a few, I like the old Genesis Does advert from Sega especially. But there's this really quite strange one just out here in the UK:
