It goes "glen....glen, glen, glen......glen, glen, glen....glen, glen, gleeennnnn" to the Eye of the Tiger music and the group (Survivor) is walking along side of "Glen" while he's getting ready for work, they're playing their instruments and he's shaving, etc. and all the words are changed to express how glen's the man at his job......it's hilarious.
Okay, and I know it's radio, not TV but I love the Budweiser real men of genius advertisements.
You may have seen that Lending Tree commercial with a happy-go-lucky guy named Stanley Johnson, who brags about his big house, his new car and how "I even belong to the local golf club. How do I do it?" he continues with a big, dumb smile, "I'm in debt up to my eyeballs." Lowering his voice, but still smiling, he adds, "I can barely pay my finance charges." The smile doesn't leave his face as he drives a riding lawn mower, saying, "Somebody help me."...LOL
My favorite would have to be the Staples commercial that they play before school starts back up. It uses the background music of "It's the most wonderful time of the year" and you think it's a Christmas commercial but it shows a father pushing a cart through the back-to-school aisles at the store. He's so happy and doing a little dance while his little kids aren't amused and have angry looks on their faces due to the impending school year starting soon. Hilarious and it's been shown the past few years!
My current fave is that one for Petsmart that has the bulldog being introduced to his new sister and he pushes his big soft red bone across the floor to make her feel welcome. Then they go to Petsmart and buy sis one that is her size. Those doggies are just adorable!
I'd have to say the Axe Body spray commercials are pretty good. As well as the Captain Morgan's Rum commercials.
The new Smirnoff Ice...guy sez: ''great pool party, whats with the trident?"...monster-sized squid tentacles come lashing out, runs to subdue it ...now they got another one: "great pool party, whats with the catapult?"...huge retriever comes busting thru the fence, guy slashes tie of catapult, sending big tennis ball flying; which makes the doggie run to chase it."...good ads.
The shampoo commercial where the "after" scene of the bouncy curls, glorious shine and all that crap..... is this big burly DUDE !!
And the Petsmart/Petco one about the big dog getting a new litle bro/sis. So he nudges that HUGE chew toy to the puppy.

Reason: Sorry redrover. Didn't see your post about the dogs.
I love the Comcast ones, theyre pretty clever. My fave is with the Slowski's when he's out in the yard, pushing his laptop around. hahaha "you push it! Push it real good!"
Man I hope someone has seen that one... Id feel strange if noone saw it.
Bill Slowski commercials are hilarious. Every last one of them. Like; "it's true, his middle name is slow...." , "My middle name is Matthew.."
The Captain Morgan commercial with the guy who's wife calls thinking he's sick and the entire bar starts acting, pretending to be changing tv channels.
Oh and also... one of those cell phone commericals... I honestly don't even know which one it is...
But the girl calls her husband and tells him they're pregnant and right before the husband starts yelling with excitement the phone cuts out... she gets pissed and says "way to step up there rick"
So funny.
