I didn't want to dilute the "most hated" thread. I generally dislike commercials, but every once in a while, one will knock my socks off.
This is hands-down my all time fave - the Tide "talking stain" superbowl ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2cs8gnb42A
I could watch that all day - whoever did the gibberish is a freaking genius!

It's certainly doing something for me 
However, some of them are sadly a bit too flat for my tastes. |

Also, the newish M&S ad, Oh Bouy indeed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-h1pdP4cQlE

Could only ever remember the characters and what the ad looked like, never what it advertised.

| | | I do have to admit that I like this commercial featuring "Skippy" from the television show "Family Ties". I have no idea what is being advertised but it has farting in it so therefore I think it is funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iApaITRQ9XU
