tinkerbell Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I didn't have time to watch the Superbowl but I've watched some of the commercials online. The only ones that stood out to me were the Google one, the Doritos kid slapping the date, and the Griswolds. Oh and the "I wear no pants" one but that's mostly because some of the guys in my building have decided to make it their theme song and have been singing it nonstop (while wearing no pants I might add). I agree with whoever else already said it: enough with the talking babies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParkTrips Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm just waiting for the year when we don't hear "this year wasn't as good as prior years".. we hype the Super bowl commercials up way too much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netdvn Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 ^ People tend to have high expectations for Super Bowl commercials because they're so expensive so we expect them to be good. Most of the commercials this year were local commercials and commercials for CBS shows so none of them really stood out IMO. Anyway... IMO the best commercials this year were... - Get yo hands of my momma and get yo hands off my Doritos - KIA - Dante's Inferno - Simpson's Coke - Green Police - Doritos Samurai - Denny's Grand Slam Breakfast - Budweiser Clydesdales - Emerald Nuts - Boost Mobile I missed some of the other commercials because I had homework to do...

larrygator Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 The number of tune-in "commercials" (this year for CBS shows since they broadcast the game) does not vary significantly year over year. Also, there were not more minutes of commercial time sold locally versus last year. The networks are obligated to give a set number of commercials minutes each hour to the local affiliates to sell, that does not change each year. I'm not sure of the exact time, but let's say each affiliate station gets 2 minutes of commercials to sell locally each hour of the broadcast. In larger markets, nationally advertisers try to buy that inventory to run their "national" ads in local markets. However, if you live in a smaller city the local commerical time might not be purchased by a national advertiser and you are more apt to see an ad for a local retailer. So those living in larger cities are not seing ads for local retailers. It all depends on where you live. I remember the commercial environment watching the Super Bowl in small town Gainesville being quite different than watching it in New York. Burger King, Coors, Pespi or Ford might buy the local inventory in New York (and other major cities) to supplement existing media schedules and counter the major sponsors of the game. In small towns like Gainesville the inventory was sold to Sonny's Real Pit BBQ or The Oaks Mall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
testtrack321 Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Letterman commercial. That was my personal favorite.

SharkTums Posted February 9, 2010 Author Share Posted February 9, 2010 ^That's VERY interesting. I really would have thought since he always seemed like the 'better man' in this whole late night fiasco that he would have jumped at that. Must be more we don't know about.

STR8FXXXINEDGE Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I saw this a couple weeks ago but it was still my favorite from last night: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rsEnwKrsvc This is one of my favorite commercials ever. EVER! I keep replaying it and I laugh every time. I tell everyone that I talk to about it and if they haven't seen it, I whip out my Blackberry and make them watch it. That's interesting. Maybe I guess it might have to do with NBC's clause of him not being on TV for 6 months? I'm also very surprised that Conan turned down doing that commercial with Oprah, Leno, & Letterman. I didn't think the clause had anything to do with him not being able to be on TV for 6 months, though. I thought it was just that he couldn't "host" a show for 6 months. I remember Conan talking about that, cause he said that doesn't mean that Andy Richter couldn't host a show and then Conan could be his sidekick.

cooksta77 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 For me, Likes: Get your hands off my Doritos Simpson's Coke Letterman Betty White Google Stevie Wonder part in VW commercial. Dislikes: Boost Mobile Shuffle (Um what the .... was that? Cheetah Print thong) E-Trade Budweiser Bridge (Just dumb) Why would Miller High Life not do the commercials after they advertised before the Game?

astroworldfan1 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I could really care less about the commercials. Honestly, none were funny and they were a waste of time. They'd show two seconds of football coverage and then jump over to two minutes of crappy commercials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjune4991 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 The only one I really enjoyed was the Doritos commercial with the best line: "Keep your hands off my mama, and keep your hands off my Doritos" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calicoasters Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) ^ Same here, There was too much noise and alcohol for me to catch all the commercials, but this one stood out! Edited February 11, 2010 by Calicoasters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek_lentz Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 My favorite was definitely when the kid B**** Slapped the boyfriend for taking his Dorito My other favorites included Betty White - Snickers & Puxatawney Polamolu I really could not stand the two back to back people in underwear commercials.
