The Folgers coffee Holiday commercial has me shaking my head...an open robe daughter in law finds her soaped up father in law in the shower & they stare at each other while a group of singers stand around them singing the jingle. There's a long version that's even more awkward. What the...? Nothing like naked to say Happy Holidays.

What Folgers is doing is making parody commercials that make fun of the sappy coffee comercials.

Hate the emu commercials, as well as the commercial (Liberty?) with the young male wannabe actor who can't speak the lines.  Dumb!

I change the channel immediately. This commercial is just plain creepy.

@Annabellethecat66: I, too, love the commercial about the dogs trained to stop their owner from using their cellphones while driving. It's hilarious! Smiley LOL

I hate all commercials.  I mute them when they are on and unmute when they are done.

Wow, I've never seen that one.  I wonder if they only play certain commercials in certain parts of the country.  I hate ALL the Chevy commercials with fake people telling you how much they love their Chevy cars and trucks.  I do love the Subaru commercials with the Golden Retrievers, but I'm a sucker for animals.  I've grown to love the Limu Emu.  I HATE the one where the husband buys a truck and an suv and the wife runs out to the truck and says. "I love it" in a way that tells him she's going to have her way and the husband looks at the suv and says, "I like red."  It was great the first few times, but now I can't stand it.  Both of them whine and he even sounds like he's clearing his throat as if he's going to throw up.  

 

P.S. - After reading what I wrote, I think I watch too much tv and get way too invested in commercials - LOLOLOL.

I dislike all the Liquor commercials. Wish they would get rid of them like they did all Cigarette Commercials. More people are killed from DUI's then from being killed from someone smoking a Cigarette in a car.

My favorite lately has been the one with the dog at the shelter (?) who looks like Chewbacca and the boy is after his dad for them to adopt him.  I love the boy’s persistence, the dad’s expression when he first says no, and the end. It makes me smile every time. 

 

I think it’s for a phone...Samsung?


@esmerelda 

I like that commercial too....one of the FEW!!! 

And since the Chewbacca dog is adopted by someone else, the kid's eyes turn to the "darth vader" cat....which looks like one of my cats....Cat LOL
