Most of the time I just automatically turn to the music channels during commercials, but occasionally I'll sit through a few commercials and two I actually enjoy just came on back-to-back

The "Jake From State Farm" commercial where a guy is talking to an insurance agent in the wee hours of the morning, and his wife comes downstairs demanding to know who he's talking to, and he says "Jake from State Farm" and the wife grabs the phone and says "What are you wearing Jake from State Farm?" and he says "Uhh.. Khaki's." then she hands the phone back to her husband and says "She sounds HIDEOUS!" and the husband says "Yeah well, she's a guy..."

Then the M&M commercial where the Red M&M dances to "Sexy And I Know It" upon thinking he's at "one of those kind of parties." I don't even like that song either, I just thought that was cute.

Yeah that M&M's one is pretty good.

I'm fond of the Fiat 500 commercial, with the Romanian chick. I have no clue what she's saying, but good lord could I listen to her say it all day.

I like the Jake from State Farm one in the OP and the Dos Equis commercials, too.

Also, there's this Crystal Light commercial about how it's low-calorie and stuff. There were two women on a plane, and woman 1 notices that woman 2 is drinking the product. Woman 2 says that she's trying to get ready for bikini season, and woman 1 says, "We live in Chicago, and when are we ever going to be on a beach..." Cue them ending up on a tropical beach because the plane crashed, and a hot guy comes up to them who needs help getting fresh water. Woman 2, having had her Crystal Light, jumps at the opportunity and starts undressing after the camera moves away.

There's also that one for the Kia Optima where a guy has a good dream of some Ms. Fanservice girl working the checkered flag while he drives the car around a racetrack. The song that they play in the background keeps getting stuck in my head, probably because it sounds so retro. I asked my mom if she remembered the song, and she remembered hearing it on the radio when she was a kid.

Yeah, according to an article on Coed Magazine I read. She cameo'd in another one, too.

I was just wondering because she was speaking Italian in the ad.

I've only seen the extended Superb Owl version of that ad, which has two songs in it, The Chordettes' "Mr. Sandman" and Motley Crue's "Kickstart My Heart". If you don't mean "Mr. Sandman", I'm going to feel incredibly old.

[up]Same thing happens to me everytime that commercial comes on.

And anyway, I can't believe I forgot to mention THIS. All condom commercials are hilariously bad, but this one takes the cake.

I really liked the old 'Ko-nica! Colours are ca-a-alling me!' adverts from way back in the day. They remind me of the summers of my youth.

This one. It sure is an effective PSA.

Seeing all these piss ant tropers trying to talk tough makes me laugh. If Matrix were here, he'd laugh too.
