A friend's son helped produce that ad. I have several out-takes of it on VHS. I've been threatening to put on disc, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

A bit fuzzy right now, which one is that?

You can see it on the Malibu website, it's basically a woman working the door at a Caribbean bar/dance hall like a New York disco, telling all the people in line why she won't let them in.

Am I the only one who likes those Miller Lite "Man Law" commercials?

Burt Reynolds: "From now on we touch bottoms."
Cowboy: "No thanks, Hollywood. I ain't into that."
Burt: "BOTTLES!"

My favorite commercial right now is a local one for an Indian casino.

It has a young man and woman getting married and the groom is distracted by one of the bridesmaids who is blowing kisses at him.

The priest says, "If anyone has any reason why these two should not be married, speak now or forever hold your peace!"

An elderly woman in the back jumps up holding a $100 bill saying, "I bet a hundred dollars they won't last a year!"

Everyone in the chapel gasps loudly.

Then the priest says, "Hmmmmm.... I'd like to get a piece of that!" as he starts counting out money from his bankroll.

It made me laugh out loud when I first saw it.

Most annoying/irritating

Any commercial with Carl Edwards in it.

Kudos to your friend. That ad was cool.

Would really like to see the bloopers version.

Plus, shows great reverence and respect to the people who helped tame the land beyond the Appalachians.

Dr. Z sucks. He has made it his lifelong mission to keep Art Monk out of the Hall of Fame. I'd take the German Dr. Z over him.

By the response this thread has gotten, I think there were a lot of us who needed a bit of much needed relief from the worldly goings-on. Thanks for starting it!

Find Dr. Z to be one of the most pompous asses on TV. IMO, he is still better than the Videoprofessor guy, John Sherer and Matthew Lesko (the patron saint of parasites as FReeper Axenolith termed him).

Chrysler is insistent on continuing these bizarre Dr. Z ads (http://www.autoblog.com/2006/08/17/chrysler-dr-z-is-here-to-stay/)

Some background info on Dr. Z:

That is bordering on child pornography. It is very sick.

Yup, that's the sickest crap I've seen yet.

Cool. Will watch. Thank you! :)

The next movie should have lots of JAmaicans. IT will be a blockbuster.

(In my best Chiffon Margarine voice over imitation...after all this is a commercial thread:

Its not nice to fool with PennsylvaniaMom!!!

But seriously...look at the King. Paper crown; resin face; demented eyes; lace collar (I'm not going there) and FUR trim!!! Btw, where is PETA when you need them?;
