D's Top 5 Commercials (Week ending 3/31)

What's going on folks? I've decided to do a column on my top commercials.  I hope to do this every week, at least 5, maybe 3, we'll see how it goes.  There's way to many good commercials on the tube and I feel it's right to show them some love.  So here we go w/ the top five for this week.  If you're viewing this on a mobile device I have left you the links just in case the video isn't embedded.

5) The Gecko's Chicago Accent - GEICO
(link: http://youtu.be/hhEUaoeHn9M)

Nicely done, it started the week being the funniest but with so many more commercial it got knocked down to 5 but nevertheless, very funny, I like how his accent and how they added in "Da Bears" at the end.  If anybody has every done the Chicago accent they've always ended it with that.  Good Stuff!

4) Pass Out Cat- Cat's Pride Fresh and Light

Oh man, the first time I saw this I was with my mother and she cracked up the whole commercial. I thought it was great.  If you have or have had cats before I'm sure it's probably funnier.  I know I've wondered if they've thought of the smell that could come from the litter box.  Nicely done commercial with great animation.  Definitely a top 5 commercial and would have been higher if I had started this column earlier.

3) Vlasic Pickles - "Nobody brings the bite like Vlasic"

Quick Commercial but man is it hilarious!  Very well done on the message.  Even at a funeral it has so much  bite that this man yelled his excitement.  What puts it over is everybody's reaction to it and then he realizes where he is again.  A very late entry as I saw it for the first time March 29th but a good one nonetheless.

 

2) Coffeehouse #Fail (Door) - International Delight Iced Coffee
(link: http://youtu.be/I6Nbx7Gs3xU)

This is the longer version then the one currently shown on the TV but nevertheless, still very funny.  How many times have you seen this before? I just like how  everybody else is having there issues w/ the door and this lady just runs right into is.  Ouch.  Another commercial that gets me laughing every time I see it.  I love how it's from a surveillance camera too, classic. 

1) Official Liquid-Plumr Double Impact Commercial
(link: http://youtu.be/Z7fz0jpuLkM)

Just like with number 2 this is the full version of this commercial but regardless the version you watch it's hilarious.  The lady in this commercial is spot on with her facial expressions and all.  She plays the part well and sells the product from beginning to end.  There's not much more really needed to be said but ENJOY IT! 

So this concludes the debut edition of this Top 5 Commercials list.  I hope you liked the commercials I chose and please feel free to comment at will on any and all of the commercials.  Feel free to tell me if I should be on the look out to any commercials as well.  You can find me on twitter at: devebx.  Thanks again and stay tuned next week for another edition of "D's Top 5 Commercials" and lets see who stays on top.

PAST-US STAT-US!!!

The Full Playlist...



Hey there, this is just a little something I've been working on and want to share with you. I call it "Past-Us Stat-Us" (PUSU), and we are 14 episodes in to this series. PUSU is basically where I take the 10 best statuses that stand out from my news feed on Facebook and share them w/ you. Most of the times there funny, but sometimes they do deliver a message and I usually end w/ a "Tip of the Week".

Everything is done by me w/ the exception of the statuses themselves. I try to make sure all statuses are original and haven't been copied from somewhere else, but other then that this whole production is done by one person and that is me.

Please, feel free to take a look, if you don't have time to see all of them I'd suggest you really start around Episode 10. Thank you and If you do enjoy feel free to also "Like" the Official Facebook Page of Past-Us Stat-Us.

Thank You and see you next time.....
