Whenever I see any of these commercials I immediately change the channel....just find them creepy, not funny.

I'd like to see him dressed as one of his brat pack characters. I wonder what an older Soda Pop Curtis would look like now. (The Outsiders)

I find these commercials hilarious! Rob Lowe has always shown a good sense of humor. How about a Surfer Dude - Slacker RL that has cable? Or Really Cheap Penny Pinching Gazillionaire RL with cable?

I don't find the commercials creepy, but I am tiring of them. As for his poor decisions, I say, welcome to the human condition.

All I know is he is aging well.

Rob Lowe shot a movie in my home town long ago in his wild days when he was engaged to Melissa Gilbert. He was standoffish in our town but I have grown to really like him. He has cleaned his act up very well and by all accounts he is a good family man so I respect that. I think those commercials are funny and he is the perfect character to poke fun at himself.

wasn't he part of the ""brat pack"" of young stars that were known for their wild life style? if so he has certainly turned himself around as opposed to Charlie Sheen who I think was also a member.

I thought he played a young Robert Wagner perfectly in Austin Powers but have no use for him other than that.

He can really get into some of the characters he plays. A couple of times I didn't even recognize him.

I like the creativity and variety; it's better than watching the exact same commercial over and over. At least they are all tongue in cheek and not stupidly written as many other commercials. How about "Shoe Fetish Rob Lowe" ( we'll get to see a lot of pretty shoes!) or a "Christian Grey SM Rob Lowe" ( tame, not too risqué for TV, more silly than anything real)?

I loved him in, 'Behind the Candelabra'.

I forgot about that. I agree he was good in that.

I like the commercials. I like how he can poke fun at himself.

I'm thinking it was Charlie's brother, Emilio Estevez, who was one of the brat pack, but I could be wrong.

I also loved him in 'Behind The Candelabra'. He is so awesome at playing super creepy characters!

I rather like the commercials. I also agree that it's nice he can poke fun at himself like this. They are definitely kind of creepy but they are somewhat humorous.

He played a couple of other real people in some Lifetime movies and was pretty good! That Peterson guy (cop and wife-killer in Illinois) movie was very good with him as the lead character. (sorry I forgot which Peterson it was - there were three different ones and I get the first names mixed up)

I like him too. I think he is a good actor and respect him for turning his life around. But when those commercials come on , I can't change the channel fast enough. Doesn't he have enough money without doing silly, creepy, dumb commercials?
