How can you leave out the streaking sheep and MacGyver? Also, I liked the quickly aging Fabio!! God, I got sick of him year's ago (still laugh about him getting smacked in the face by a bird on a roller coaster) so seeing him go instantly from psuedo-hottie to grandpa was great!

I refuse to acknowledge any Mastercard commercial because the priceless campaign is so beyond stale.

Also, you missed the best commercial of the night, the sadistic Sprint commercial, with "crime deterrent" (he throws the phone at the other guy's face). Here is a link to All the superbowl ads this year. http://sports.aol.com/nfl/superbowlads

I personally loved the Dove commercial. In they eyes of the American public and what we believe as beautiful, it was revolutionary for Dove to openly challenge the belief, esp during the SB.

Fed Ex - funny
Anheuser Busch - the guys on the roof funniest, followed by the revolving refrigerator.
Burger King - creepy
Diet Pepsi - yawn (someone got paid to come up with "brown and bubbly?" WTF??)
Hummer where the robot and the creature get it on to breed a Hummer....ewwww. That one was the worst. I mean, what in the name of Sam Hill???
And, our family owns two car dealerships, so let me be frank in saying, the Escalade on the runway was stupid, my husband said "2.5 million dollars for that and people wonder why GM is going under???" Also, we have Toyota and the one with the boy and his dad in the Camry...omg, check my pulse. BO-RING.
Jessica Simpson and Pizza Hut....just go away please.
The commercials were very underwhelming this year. So sad,

I didn't really watch much of the Super Bowl... but the officiating was horrible. I don't even like sports, but that was annoying.
I didn't see any of those commercials except for the magic beer fridge, which was funny.

Most Heartwarming Ad: Baby clydesdale pulling the wagon.
Funniest Ad: Streaking sheep.
Stupidest Ad: Anything with kermit.
Best Costumes in an Ad: The Whopperettes (those things were very detailed).
Most Disturbing Ad: Anything with Jessica Simpleton.
Best Slogan: "Let Your Man Out" Go on guys. Shout that one loud and proud. I dare ya!

The Jessica Simpson ad to me was just her announcing “I’m for sale�. She’ll whore out for anything, even adding the name of the product to her songs. Her and Diddy should date, they have so much in common.
Brown and bubbly? So are my shits but I don’t drink them. Not after what happened last time.
The Clydesdales playing sports thing is a 3 year old joke. Move on already. Same thing with Fabio. This isn’t 1995. Next we’ll have a commercial making fun of Judge Ito.
Ever since Janet Jackson’s titty destroyed civilization all the ads are neutered and lack any edge at all. And no T & A.
The only commercial I liked was for the taco bell Crunchwrap, cuz it looked freaking delicious.

I really liked the Magic fridge commercial, too bad they only played it once (that I saw). And I think Pepsi fucked up, because they hyped the 'brownandbubbly.com' site before even playing the actual commercial with Diddy and the song explaining the thinking. I heard the announcer say 'Brrrrown and Bubbbbbly!' and I had images of explosive brown diarrhea in my mind which is not what I wanna think about when I'm eating delicious pizza. But the commercial was a nice play on Diddy and Making The Band and hip hop videos which some random fat black man repeating 1 line, over and over and over again :)

EdHill - "Brown and bubbly? So are my shits but I don’t drink them. Not after what happened last time." I think that's the first time your writing made me bust out in laughter..right here at work! Now I am being called into the inner sanctum to explain my outburst. Darn you EdHill!!

The Budweiser commerical with the colt pulling the wagon actually brought a tear to my husband's eye. And that's impressive.
I thought the streaker sheep at the Clydesdale football game was pretty funny as well. And working with Jackasses? That describes my office to a T. But we have to have some screen shots of that horror that was the Rolling Stones halftime show. Seriously, I think I got a little sick to my stomach with that one.
Our neighbour's only comment on the Jessica Simpson commercial "That's what you get when you don't sign a pre-nup honey"

The makers of the Hummer commercial did a good job of illustrating why a Hummer is destructive and evil, and needs to be eradicated for the future existence of our planet.

yeh im sad the streaking naky lamb wasnt mentioned...that was my fave ... also the hummer commercial ... I was watching good morning america last week ...and they had a segment on the super bowl commercials .. .the so called "commercial expert" they had on said that the diet pepsi commercial was effective and good b/c you actually remember what product the commercial is advertising after it ends....but i definatelly disagree....brown and bubbly is not a great slogan for anything going in or around my mouth

First off, YAAAAAY STEELERS! May not have been as thrilling or joyful as the butt kicking they gave Denver a few weeks ago with some inspired playes, but I was still glad to see the black and gold on top again.
I liked the bud light ad where the guy was trying to fend off a bear and then some other dude ran past and stole it.
Also loved them practicing "I'm going to Disneyworld!". Bettis is the cutest man on earth. (And so are his parents).
But please, no more photos of both teams touching the trophy! bad luck and bad form before you win. i know this isn't hockey with the stanely cup lore, but still.
was also a fan of all the cute steeler toddlers in their pint sized jerseys.
and i have to go tim gunn on the seahawks jerseys. lime green piping on an aqua uniform?! hell to the no!

Oh yea, and the Harrison Ford with Dr. Seuss thing at the begining of the game? Weird and awful. I can't the Suess estate let them butcher that. Someone has to have some video/screen captures of that somewhere.

Laurie - your husband is a softie!
My husband's most frequent editorial comment was "that sucked". Then again, he can hardly be expected for a well thought out review for each commercial offering what with the energy exerted in scratching ones balls and drinking beer simultaneously.

Like EdHill said, they Clydesdales playing football thing is also an old concept. I will admit that the young clydesdale being helped by the two older horses was nice, but not that memorable.
The Hummer commercial is not new, and so didn't qualify for my list, although it certainly is disturbing. The pregnant monster was just not what anybody needed to see.

the smallish clydesdale was actually a donkey (or maybe a mule), which is what made the spot work so well.
far and away the best ad was the fedex caveman spot. especially when he kicked the little dinosaur at the end. nothing says "use our product" like blatant animal abuse.

Go Steelers!
Personally I thought the heart paddles and the fly were the best, although the magic fridge was really funny too. Interestingly I was at a bar in Manhattan watching the game with a bunch of men and at the end of the clydesdale pony spot there was a huge collective "awwww".

True story:
A good friend of mine works for Gillette up in Boston. At his great party this past summer at his father's phat house on Lake Winnepasaukee, my UCONN crew and I cornered him and interrogated him. "So, Schick has the new 4 blade razor... what's up? When is Gillette gonna trump them with a 5 blader?"
he sheepishly laughed and looked genuinely scared and said, "Just you wait." We totally thought he was joking and laughed at the concept.
But lo, behold the Gillette Fusion - 5 Freaking Blades to drag across your face.
Awesome. Just awesome. I anticipate the required poorly done SNL parody commercial next new show - and they'll do it with like 11 blades or something lame. And have a weak rap to go along with it.

Great picks! My favorite SB moment had to be during one "NFL: Fans" commercial-- when I saw a friend of mine that I hadn't seen in years... I screamed-- "Holy $hit!!! I know that guy!". He was part of the "Biker gang" they showed... Way to trippy....

"Brown and Bubbly"
"Hershey Squirts"
Nasty.
Ed you are so right Janets tits ruined everything.
But those ameriquest and magic fridge commercials were pretty funny.
J-Unit was also right about the game being sloppy. Actually It was boring and sloppy.

sg-dub...I have seen a commercial parody, I think on Mad TV where the razor had 20 blades, each one shaving closer, until each layer of skin was being painfully shaved off. I found it pretty damn funny.
I also liked the little horse being helped to pull the wagon, the sheep streaker, the magic fridge, and the paddles killing the fly in the hospital. Not keen AT ALL on Pepsi's ads...just horrible. Also hated that weird monster Hummer commercial. Rather disturbing.

My least favorite was the Toyota Hybrid "driving a hybrid is just like being bilingual" spot. I only speak english, so I guess I don't get why hybrids are so good for our future!
