- What is your favorite TV ad?
- What is your most annoying TV ad?

Re: Rainy Day Poll
i offer my answers with a disclaimer--my husband works in advertising, so this is a hot topic in our household, and i watch a LOT of commercials, even though i don't watch much tv to speak of!
1) i like the reeses pb cup commercial with the sharks. i also like the one with the goat in a party hat standing on the table. (i think it's for windex or something).
2) the skittles ads are horrifying.
3) i generally don't buy things based on ads.

1. I am in LOVE with Mayhem - the guy in the insurance commercials (Allstate?) who wrecks people's cars. HILARIOUS.
2. Most annoying is anything from Bob's Discount Furniture. I can't stand Bob and Mrs. Bob!!
3. Hmm...I actually fast forward through most ads these days so I can't think of anything I've bought because of one recently!
I also DVR almost everything so I almost never watch commercials anymore!!
I like those ETrade baby commercials, they crack me up.
The Bobs ones are bad, I agree. I really hated those Groupon ads that were on for a few days after the superbowl.
Probably an ad for ice cream, not anything specific. It just put ice cream in my head and then I needed to buy some. And it was satisfying!!
Sorry for the post & run yesterday. Here are my answers:
