I know that bitching about crappy ads is a communal past-time, but which are the ones you like?

I like Future Shop's Smoky and the Bandit ad. Not only is the sight of an Asian kid dressed as Burt Reynolds hilarious, what wins it for me is the moustache sound effect!

And for some reason, the new Wendy's ad with the screaming faces doing the Beatlemania thing with the Baconator is amusing.

I live way down in Central Oregon and there's a radio ad for a major food distributor that uses the tag line, "It's time to dine". They repeat it several times throughout the commercial and I just smile every time I hear it.

There's a series of Holiday Inn commercials with an "idiot dad/idiot business man" type theme that I always get a kick out of. I especially like this one where he falls asleep in a tanning booth and tells everyone he went on some great trip.:D Holiday Inn

I've never actually seen these ads on TV but they're great!

Apparently, this is an ad for mac's slushies:

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oba-a_bjH1o"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oba-a_bjH1o" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

And sure, he could've stayed in the past. Could've even been king. But in his own way, he is king! Bruce Campbell in what may be the greatest ad I've ever seen! Ahoy!

Forgot to add the Capital One "You Got Bankers" commercial. I like the part where the exterminator throws the change on the floor and all the bankers come out of the woodwork and start fighting over it :)

P.S. I think it's spelled "Amadeus"

No need to be so anal-retentive OBG. :)

I thought those were pretty funny. Thanks for sharing visioneast. :D
I thought they were really funny too. :D

I can't get enough of the lyrics, both of them. :D

I like Buffy.
