I guess if I had to choose it would be the crabs and the beer cooler, probably because I'm partial to crabs.
But weren't the commercials LAME this year? This is the first year I've actually watched it for the game, because I've been a Bears fan my whole life (talk about lame, but that's another post....). And there were NO commercials that stood out! Nothing that was any better than on any other television program. Very disappointing. I'm glad I was interested in the game for a change.
I also thought the commercials were NOT THAT GOOD this year ~ I did like the one that had the guys undressing to wash the chevy...probably only because Angie and I saw the show on Saturday that had the kids chosen to participate from their colleges with their commercials, to present at the Super Bowl with a Chevy commercial, this winner was 1 person, all by herself. Congrats to her!
I thought they were lame too... the few I got to see (see rant rant rant) The cheby carwash one elicited a smile as did the taco bell one, although I cant remember it now.
The worst hands down had to be the Garmin one, although I remember the ad, so it must have been effective.
Once again, as in previous years, a local ad for the trunk monkey was probably the winner.
We thought they were kinda lame this year too - and I know it's on CBS but did they have to run a ton of their own commercials over and over and over? arg.
I enjoyed the K-Fed commercial and the one with Robert Goulet was great. Basically I found the whole thing a good time to take a little nap.
My favorite was the one with the foreign people taking an english class, and being taught when someone asks for a budweiser to say "me no speak english". That made me laugh pretty good!
But yeah...commercials weren't that great. And I agree about CBS running their own ads...it got a little old. I think I saw the stupid commercial for Survivor like 20 times!
My favorite was the checkout girl scanning the different bags of Doritos and making comments about each one....hard to describe--y ou just gotta see it!
I liked that Doritos one too! Had me crying laughing. I also liked the beer one (sad, i can't remember which beer) but the guy goes to give his friend a fist and the other guy says the fist is out and then slaps him silly. I also thought the sprint ad about connectile dysfunction was funny because it was kind of spoofing all of the ads last year about erectile dysfunction.
Midwife~since you were catching babies rather than catching the game, you can go and review the commercials still! MSNBC has a commercial superbowl and there is a link to all the commercials.
I vote for the Blockbuster ad. I also liked the Chevy, Doritoes and Taco Bell ones.
I was disappointed that some of the commercials were ones I had seen before (like the rock, paper, scissors one). I like to see NEW ones on the supberbowl. I did like the fact that there were competitions with college students producing some of the commercials--that is just too cool, and I liked what they did.

I just have to agree here. Very stupid, but we remember the name. Not that I'm going to go out and buy a GPS from them, though.
My fav hands down was the Snickers commercial with the two guys. When The one guy said, "Quick! Do something manly!" and the other guy ripped off his chest hair, I LITERALLY was rolling on the floor!
Your Favorite Super Bowl Commercial???
