The Good:
1. Coca Cola Black History Commercial. Very appropriate in many ways.
2. The commercial that talked about the significance of this game to minorities. It is true that it represents how far this country has come.
3. The rock/paper commercial
4. Doritos commercial
5. Chevy commerical with the DIVERSITY of performers.
6. The Computer-Animated Coca Cola commercial.
7. Bud Light commercial with everyone slaping each other.
8. Connectile Dysfunction (just for the clever approach)
The Bad:
Everything else. Especially those Sierra Mist (whatever it's called) commercials.

Snickers was the worst.
And Prince is singing purple rain right now.
I can't help but wonder how awesome that would be if the Ravens were playing.

That's right. My bad. If there is a way to combine this thread with that one.

Agreed. That snickers commercial was pathetic.

Screw these commercials. Until Terry Tate makes a return, these commercials fail in comparison to the original Terry Tate commercial.

I thought that the K-Fed Life Comes at You Fast commercail was hilarious.

The snickers, the axe weilding hitchiker, and the jungle career builders were the only hits at my party...

I was disappointed with all the commerials this year. In the past they were better.

the two coke commercials (the video game driver, inside the vending machine) and the office jungle ones were good. the ganging up on the heart (diabetes, overweight) was pretty good. the FedEx was disappointing (the Alien one was one of the all time best). the CBS promos looked real lame compared to the others.

What I noticed was that it seemed that CBS overpriced the commercials. There was a LOT of spots for CBS' shows, etc. It seems that they fell far short of selling out the commercials, maybe that is why IMO, the collection of cemmercials as a whole was very weak as compared to years past. Also not nearly the creativity and shock value of the Go Daddy, Bud Frogs/Ferrets, etc.

I'm well aware that I am from a different era, but K-Fed, to me, looks like a pervert child molester! :(

The Snickers commercial was pretty bad -- it was borderline homophobic, and had the effect of making me not want to eat a Snickers.

The axe weilding bud light carrying hitch-hiker and the K-Fed were really the only two thad stood out.
The slap was OK. Rock paper scissors was unimpressive.

I guess I wasn't the only one who thought the Snickers commercial was creepy and homophobic -- it was announced today (or maybe yesterday) that the commercial has been pulled and won't be seen again.

Why was it homophobic? Why do straight guys have to pretend that we aren't grossed out by the thought of kissing another dude? Most straight men don't hate gays, but the thought of "doing something gay" ourselves is still cringeworthy for many. That's what the commercial was tapping into, not encouraging hate or discrimination against openly gay men.
Rack Losac. I don't care how many bones you smoke or smuggle in your own bedroom, but I do NOT want to be involved.

The funny thing is, I thought the anti-gay establishment would be up in arms about the Snickers commercial.
But it's the gay rights people up in arms.
Count me in with Losac and Greg.

That may be true, but the shock fctor will wear off quickly. It always does. As for me, I'll never eat a Snickers bar again. You can believe that.
