Whenever I see a really funny commercial, I feel the need to share it because I don't know if I'll ever see it again. ESPN commercials are totally my cup of tea. I won't bore you with the details but I once saw an ESPN commercial with Lee Corso that was totally non-PC. I must be the only person on the planet that's seen it and it was immediately removed from the air after that one showing. And I haven't been able to find it on the internet since.

Anyway, some commercials are just so funny, they really should be shared. If you come across any great ones, please post them here, I'd like to see them!

Here are few beauties -- funnier than some entire movies.

The Snickers "Feast" ad campaign



No collection is complete without the Bridgestone "Reply All" commercial

There used to be an awards thingy for the "best commercials" (may still be). I particularly remember one involving a bunch of Japanese kids in a communal bath. It was an ad for a soap company. It was in Japanese but you didn't need to know what was being said to enjoy the humour.
Often with comedic commercials you remember the comedy but not the product.

The advertising industry has Clio Awards every year. I'm sure one category must be Television.

C'mon folks, please post a link or two. Did you like the Snickers Feast thingy? I haven't seen many movies or what not, funnier than that.

And the punching of the coffee drinking koala? You didn't fall over laughing?


Ok, meanwhile this one gets honorable mention
