Saturday

CBS: Letterman and Oprah

An ad worthy of a Superbowl placement.  Not necessarily the greatest ad ever, but... given the pairing, it's not a surprise that it generated as much chatter as it did.



Friday

Head On: "Apply Directly to the Forehead"

So damned annoying... which is what makes it so good. Ten years ago, before the Internet, it would've been just a crappy add. But now it's the subject of all kinds of chatter, parody, and other net-age phenomena that has made the brand awareness spread like wildfire.

Saturday

"Casino" Trailer

You know, I enjoyed the film, but kept thinking it was a poor man's Goodfellas. Good flick, don't get me wrong, but... Goodfellas was a GREAT flick, and this was basically the same cast.

But when it comes to the trailer... A+ all the way.

Thursday

Winston Cigarettes: "Flintstones"

Yeah, there's no doubt that this is from an era long, long, long ago. This doesn't so much get "best" recognition for the quality itself, but more from the pure, unadulturated "holy s***" reaction most people will have from watching it.

Monday

Pro-Line: "Because Anything Can Happen"

I'm not even sure what the hell this is actually for (some kind of lottery, I suppose), but... the commercial really is a hoot.
