Topper Toy Sixfinger Commercial

I remember wanting this toy. A secret weapon that no one will ever know you have! Because it's "flesh" colored... too bad if you don't have "flesh colored" skin.

Dr. Dove TV commercial

I'm not sure this would make kids want to go to the dentist. And the treasure chest? You know it's got floss and toothbrushes in it.

Extreme Sheep LED Art

This viral video for Samsung electronics is all over the webs right now, but if you haven't seen it yet... here ya go! Good editing and computer effects have created a heated "real vs. fake" discussion. In reality, it's a real fake.

Larry Bird vs. Michael Jordan McDonalds commercial

This first ran in the 1993 Super Bowl. One of the best commercials ever, with two of the greatest basketball players ever, ending on top of one of the tallest buildings ever.

You too can be a videogame, um, worker!

This commercial is so pathetic. Tighten up the graphics? What does that mean? What do they teach you at this place? And why can't they do business in Texas or Massachusetts... were they banned from those states first and now are hitting the other 48?
