The little kids asleep, I was just surfing the net, with the TV on in the background, when the Viva Viagra commercial came on. Each time I've seen it, I'm just flabbergasted. It's just too weird. Do guys really sit around singing about Viagra? Don't answer that; I don't want to know. But then I started thinking about other commercials that are memorable in some way or another.
Most annoying commercial: I think it might be a Cheerios commericial, but it's so annoying I switch channels when it plays. It's a family, at the breakfast table, tapping out some lame rhythm on their breakfast bowls, table, etc.,--a la Stomp. Not clever; annoying.
Cutest commercial with kids: the Bandaid commercial where two little kids (a boy and a girl) are singing, "I am stuck on Bandaid brand." The kids seem sweet without being cutesy.
Commercical most in need of Emily Post: the Texas PSA urging immunizations for whooping cough. Coughing into someone's ear and saying, "Pass it on" bothers me. Cover your mouth when you cough!
Commercials with the best announcer: The Whataburger commercials. "Whataburger. Just like you like it."
Favorite commercial currently (although a little creepy): the Jerry Jones/Papa Jones commercial. Any commerical where there's a rap song for an old guy can't be all bad. OK, I'll admit I laugh almost every time.

Aw, I like the Band-aid commercial too, that song is catchy! But the Whataburger commercial bothers me because they are not wearing gloves while they make the hamburgers. It just creeeeeeeps me out! Yuck!
I just like the voice of the Whataburger announcer. I hadn't notice the lack of gloves. Do they wear really wear gloves in the restauarant? I try not to think too hard about these things.
Didn't it used to be just "BaindAid" instead of "BandAid brand"? It's like they were so worried that people wouldn't differentiate between their brand and generic bandages that they changed the song. That sort of cheapens it for me. I can just see them yelling "No! Stupid kid! It's BandAid BRAND! SING IT!! BRAND!!!".
