What are some of your favorite commercials? I am currently loving the Visa "Go" ads with a dad and his daughter at the aquarium(voiceovers done by Morgan Freeman, BTW) 8)

I hate commercials. There's nothing worse than people popping up several times an hour to interrupt your entertainment with an endless stream of annoying messages.

Too many Viagra and Cialis commercials for my taste. Small children need not see this day time.

I enjoy some commercials. Like at the super bowl I look forward to them, because I'm not actually watching for the game. Thank to Tivo and other dvrs I no longer need to waste time watching commercials

Herding Cats from Super Bowl.

Re-direct Bill to detention for Sprint (?) (what if package delivery ran our schools: Found the kid with their cell phone/ walky talky)

New Burger King ad for collectible Trek cups. (but if that is what the movie is like I may pass.)
