I'm loving the Cadbury Olympic advert for Stars v Stripes. I love all the sea creatures!  ;D

I think this commercial is quite funny!!  ;D  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

The new IKEA advert with all the kitty-cats makes me feel all squishy inside  :) :) [smiley=smitten.gif] [smiley=smitten.gif]

I'm not the only one in our house who likes the Ikea cat commercial our Siamese loves it as well he sits as close to the TV as he can an watches it sometimes he is quite vocal when it comes on it's really adorable watching him watching it. ;D  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

I love the advertisement with the pound-puppy promoting himself to the prospective adoptive couple by showing a video of himself doing all sorts of amazing stuff.  ;D

I enjoy the pound puppy commercial as well.  ;D  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

There's a new commercial here for some credit card (Discover?) where some guy (with a different card) is phoning customer service, which is of course outsourced overseas. It shows the call center in a little hut somewhere in ... Lappland, Siberia??? and the call is taken by this little gnomish guy with beard and big woolly jumper. He answers -- thick accent -- saying "This is Peggy"  Guy in US says "Peggy? Whatever ..." and proceeds to tell his problem. "Yes" Peggy says repeatedly until guy susses that is the extent of his/her vocabulary.  :) There's another one where Peggy puts everybody on hold.

I <3 the Harvey commercial!!!!

I don't like the lame LG ones, though. And they're always during Smallville! grr! Thank goodness for the DVR, because we get to fast forward thru the adverts.

If I see that annoying Sky ad (this is what it's all about) I'm gonna scream.  It is so loud and distracting.  I always lose my place in my crocheting.

I love the Compare the Market/ Compare the Meerkat commercials, they are brilliant. 

These are probably my favorite ones.  My fiance does an excellent meerkat impression for me that always gives me giggling fits.

Everyone hates him.  I've come up with alternative words to his annoying song.  :-X

Hehheeh my BF says he absolutely refuses to use that website to compare car insurance for the very fact that he's so annoying.  I tend to agree!

The "Genius Bread" ad with the Albert Einstein look alike creeps me out. I really don't know why...it just does.
