OK, settle down people. The Saints came marching in and Mardi Gras started early in the French Quarter. And you! Drunk dude! Stop firing your gun in the air. You hit three of your fellow revelers. Not cool.
Like many, I watched for the commercials. They were so-so. Especially the ones with political/moral intent/hype. The pro-life commercial with Time Tebow and Mom was much ado about nothing. Sweet, and not even close to the ~scandal~ pro-abortion peeps played it.
The Green Police commercial gave me a LOL as I drank from my plastic bottle, which I then threw away in the regular trash that was full of orange peels and coffee grinds. I have a feeling the folks who were responsible for writing it wanted to offer their preachy greeny message with humor, but you can bet they are dead serious about making you "save" the planet through all means they parodied.
Oh, that reminds me, I need to pick up some incandescence light bulbs, non-rechargeable batteries, and Styrofoam coffee cups. And I'll carry them all home in a plastic bag before I throw them away with my plastic bottles and compostables. Why? To piss off the morality green police, that's why.
The best commercials, again, featured the e-trade babies.
Pant-load. New catch phrase that we can use in reference to Washington!
How about this one?
OwowOOOOOOOOOOOwwwwwww! This line was mascot approved.
But here's my fav, maybe off all time.
Betty White, I want to be just like you when I'm old(er).

Patti, The green commercial was the classic example of a bad ad. It was interesting and memorable, BUT it struck the worst possibel chord for the product it was selling. During the whole ad we were all laughing, saying, "yeah, how are are we going to let this enviro-nazi-crap go?" Then they tried to sell a "green" car at the end of that ad? Give me a break.
andrew: you hit the nail on the head. it was an epic FAIL.
