      I love the M&M commercials. They have always been my favorite. But this is one of the favorites. Great advertising appeals.

    Planter's... disturbing. Wow... I am not a fan. I do like the spoof commercial on the Life "Mikey" commercial with the Jackson boys and Michael Jackson as Mikey.

    This one is pretty cheesy, but some of the needs and audience appeals are very clear. Koolaid commercial http://youtu.be/oYS7aQY1iZI

      I thought of looking for this commercial after listening to Dane Cook. He has a comedy bit about the Koolaid guy breaking into houses and it made me want to check his facts, lol. Oh yeah!

    This add is very funny to me. I think it has need for guidance and need to achieve in it. Maybe some need to dominate in interviews

    the commercial that i think was really good was the Dove add. That commercial really takes it to a place where you can relate and feel sad for that little girl.

      That commercial was great. Even though it was old, I feel that they could still play it now and have the same results that they would want. People would still laugh and smile.

    Does anybody else think that the older commercials seem to be alot more entertaining than the ones they show on TV these days?
    I do not even watch them anymore because they seem just too redicelous and stupid.

      I completely agree with Anna. Older commercials seemed to have been more thought out. They used various appeals and were entertaining to watch. Most commercials now-a-days are an onslaught of information and usually they're obnoxious. Why would an advertiser spend so much money airing a crap commercial? It makes the product look bad and makes the producer look worse.

      The older ones are traditional. The meatball one is old and very funny!

    The The Gap: Pardon Our Dust commercial definitely uses the need to satisfy curiosity.
    Even though I think that it is kind of stupid, it is still prety entertaining how that whole situation developes.

    I liked the Tide on the Go Interview, I thought it was pretty funny I also liked the Star Wars commerical with the Energizer Bunny. But overall my favorite commercials are during the Super Bowl and so far the Doritos commercials are the best! Which Doritos commercials do you guys like?

      The Super Bowl commercials are the very best. That is the only reason why I watch the Super Bowl. But the Doritos commercials are the best of the best. My favorite one is with the grandma and the sling shot.

    The honda commercial was the most eye catching but was ineffective, for I watched a few times before remembering what it was for. The others that were memorable was the Sony Bravia commercial. Also the others from this company were also amazing. The best of those is that they have videos of how they made the commercials. My favorite from their company was the san francisco one. So if you have a chance to see it, it is amazing.

    I do have a question though, what was the purpose of the gap commercial, and I also wonder if they actually had people come into their store and start pushing displays over?

      If that was the case I bet that was the most entertaining ad to make. But the whole destruction to show they were putting up a new location sort of threw me off.

    The planters commercial is really funny. I think there is a utilization of absurdest humor that is more common now a days than it was "back in the day"

      That is for sure. I think the more absurd the commercials get the better they are. Look at the Old Spice comercials, those ones are straight weird, but they are so funny.
