Favorite TV Commercials (70s, opening, on tv, shows)

[NYLIER]

Oh, and I forgot, the commercial with the guy singing with the squirrel and some birds. The the coyote jumps in, grabs the bird and then spits it out and starts singing along. I think it is a car commercial.

The California cows lost me when they started making fun of Wisconsin. So over on the Wisconsin forums they thought up some ideas for retaliatory commercials, such as:

• Cows running from wildfires.
• Cows sliding in landslides.
• Cows falling in crack from earthquake.
• Cows crossing road and being hit by Britney Spears/Lindsey Lohan/whoever is the latest debutart who can't drive.
• Cows being benched by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
• Cows passing out from heatstroke.
• Cows brains melting from hearing surfers talk.
• Cows getting lost in smog.

This may give away my age, but the Oscar Myer sing-a-long commercial of the '70's.
Coke sing-a-long early '70's (I was a tot then!)

I love this! Someone needs to produce these.

I'd have to say I like all of the Liberty Mutual commercials because whoever created them decided to show people in a positive light. It's refreshing.

After those, you gotta love the Geico dancing caveman and I never knew a Fruit of the Loom commercial I didn't like. Comcast's office war isn't bad either.

If those are the ones where people watch each other doing nice things and pass it on, I like those too. It's good to see with cynicism being presented so often.

- the Jack Links ones with the pranks on Bigfoot
- the new Denny's commercials with Paulie from the Sopranos ("Thats not real money, sir." "Well that ain't a real breakfast!")
- any IBM commercial
- can't forget the Keystone bitter beer face ones
- those new DirectTV commercials with the guys from Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, etc. (they're all at a board meeting for a cable company)
