What TV commercials make you laugh?

Some commercials catch your attention because they're so funny. What are some of your funny favorites?

I like the Kohler fixture commercial where the guy is in the fancy shower, testing out all the settings. Then he goes downstairs and tells the people that their shower is all ready. His hair is still wet and he's tucking in his shirt.

I don't think that I've seen that one, Barb.

The Aflac commercials still make me laugh. I'm sure there's more but that's all I can think of right now.

I forgot about the Aflac commericals. I agree they are funny. I'll have to make a note when I see one I like.

Barbszy, I love that commercial too. I also like the mac/pc commercials, the verizon fios guy vs cable guy commercials, and the new super manequins commercials that Old Navy has on. My dd hates those manequins and says they are creepy (she works for Old Navy) but I think they are funny. Apparently they all come to the stores with names and bios.

I love the Geico commercials with that little lizard - The one with the little tiny suit & the other where he used that old guys 1st dollar to buy himself some chips from the vending machine!!! 1 commercial doesn't make me laugh, but it sure makes me think - It's an insurance commercial where folks see other people doing things for others which inspires them to do for others - I think that's awesome & a practice we should use every day.

How about the doritoes one that played during the superbowl: what's that? a crystal ball, (its a =snowglobe) it tells the future, are we gonna have free doritoes at lunch today? and he tosses it at the vending machine, then free doritoes come out of the machine - this is one my dd likes.

I like all the others you all listed, does anyone remember the alkaseltzer ones? I liked those too.

I like the Doritos ads, too. The story behind the commercial and the guys who made it was pretty good, too. I thought that it was one of the best ads during the Superbowl.
