For me, it was almost a tie. The talking stain won out though. My seccond choice was the giant pidgeons.

I liked Hank the Bud horse with the Rocky theme song. I did not see it on your list.

I laughed the hardest at the Justin Timberlake one, so it got my vote. Several close seconds, though.

My favorite Superbowl commercial was a Fedex one from 1998. All it showed was a blank blue screen, and white letters scrolling across it explaining that they had spent months of time and million dollars creating the best ad ever, but some idiot in the mail room forgot to send it Fedex.

My favourite was the old Diet Pepsi one, with scenes overdubbed, like Marty Schottenheimer pumping up his players:

"No-one comes to our house and DOESNT BRING DIET PEPSI! NOBODY!"

Default game good, commercials bad

Good Superbowl, bad Superbowl commercials. I sort of figured that the writers' strike must have had something to do with it. No vote, probably won't be the last time this year that I have nothing good to vote for.

That was a repeat so I didn't post. Doritos sucked this year what was with the girl singing.

Yeah. 99% of the commercials were just plain dumb and lacking this year. The talking stain was the only one that had me in stitches. The Justin Timberlake one I thought was just plain dumb... (Aside from the point when he gets his crotch rammed into the sign post repeatedly. I could watch that part replay over and over again for hours.. but just that part).
The one with Shaq on the horse is REALLY starting to get annoying around here. I now can't turn on a TV, or go to a website without seeing Shaq dressed up like a horse jockey with a mean looking face.
