Grissom is back on CSI already?!?!? WTF?

That's the same thing I said when I saw it. That had to be the shortest sabbatical ever :lol . Well, at least we might get a good story outta that if Keppler's bad.
 
...did everybody just see a Stop the Iraq Escalation commercial or was that something local?

It's only in certain markets.

I think saying "A Rock" over and over again sounds a bit too much like Iraq.

"C'MON!"
 
What was the fan made commercial? The hard to say goodbye one?
 
I liked the Snickers and Goulet commercials. I watched the other SNicker endings and I wished they'd shown some of those. "Is there room for three in this love boat?"
 
The K-Fed ad is the greatest thing in the history of the world. That guy is the best.

SICK WHIP THICK RIMS FAT ROCKS I GOT EM
 
The commercials this year were pretty much lacking. Wonder if that's a sign that businesses didn't have as much money to spend on marketing - thus signifying a slowdown cometh :)

that has all of them

i probably laughed the most at the goulet one, and the preview for the new disney movie where the t-rex was talking and saying "my head is too big, and i have little arms" :lol that one looks funny.

other than that, for the most part they weren't that great.

prince was such a badass though. he BEASTED that guitar!
 
Bad year for commercials.

The one with the car driving along the ledges of buildings & such is for the Ford Edge and has been playing for weeks.

Snickers was funny, Robert Goulet was funny, Blockbuster guinea pig & rabbit torture mouse was funny. Otherwise they were either stupid, boring or just regular commercials (the car & truck ads fit into that). Or they were commercials that we've seen before, like the inside of the Coke machine. Some nice tributes to Dungy & Smith thrown in there.

It was a good game, Prince was very good and surprisingly gracious. Billy Joel looked pissed to be singing out in the rain & obviously did a minimal effort in the performance. The Cirque du Soleil thing before kickoff was bizarre and disturbing.
 
I just watched the Snickers kissing ad again on Youtube and saw a comment that made me laugh.

"Anyone who eats snickers likes to kiss men, watch men kiss each other, or is simply gay."
 
The best commercials of the night to me went to the Budlight hitchhiker commercial and the one involving rock, paper, scissors.

I've made a couple of jokes and I wasn't serious but that commercial was odd to me. They took the demo that is maybe the least partial to homo-erotic overtones and combined it with a candy bar. Seems like a strange choice. They were probably keenly aware of what they were playing off but still the pic below doesn't make me want to eat spaghetti.

I gotta pick the Blockbuster mouse ad to be my favorite. It was funny and it had incredible CGI (seriously, that was some top notch work on the animals).

Oh and that HD ad for the Disney movie (while stupid) looked f00king incredible on my HDTV.
