I have seen the Subway one with the Man dressed as a Jalapeno so many time and it always makes laugh! "Oh mamma, too hot? too Spicy?" then he runs away but not before shouting "Hot! Hot!"

I love that commercial glad to see I'm not the only who still finds it funny!!  [smiley=laugh4.gif]  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

Annoying they may be, but you gotta love the ads for local Boston firms.  Bernie & Phyl now have their grownup kids in on the act.  The sons and daughter are shown touting all kinds of deals on furniture and it ends with the daughter saying "But don't tell Bernie" (grins at Dad).
And now there's Ernie Boch Jr. selling cars just like Dad.  He doesn't have the llama anymore though.
Jordan's Furniture ads aren't as good anymore, since one of the brothers (Barry or Elliot?) dropped out.

the burger king ad  with  a famous race car driver  (I don't know him)  teaching actors  how to endorse their  product and Erick Estrada  has the  sunglasses with estrada across the shades  part!! .. haven't laughed at a commercial  in  a while.. I like the way he can poke fun at himself..  ;D

I like the one for the Happy Egg Co, where the hen is riding around on the back of the farmer's ATV.

Those BT ads with that utter sop of a bloke and his pudding bowl haired girlfriend annoy me beyond all reason.  She's a cow.  He's a numpty.  Please get them both off the air.

I'll even do their next ad. 

It can be her bratty kids, phoning his folks.  'We've got some news' and then cut to a clip of the sop and pudding bowl in a car shortly before it explodes dramatically.

Then kids saying, 'We get her life insurance, you get his'.

The new Guitar Hero commercial with Hugh Heffner and the girls is kind of amusing.  Probably helps that the song doesn't do my head in.  :-\\\\

I like the ad for Dell computers with the factory workers singing "Lollipop."  It cheers me up. 
On s'envolera du même quai
Les yeux dans les mêmes reflets,
Pour cette vie et celle d'après
Tu seras mon unique projet.

Je t'aimais, je t'aime, et je t'aimerai.

There's a Brennan's bread ad on here. People are walking through the town but there are wheatfields growing in the streets. The ad isn't anything special, but I really like the song.
