I remember the alkaseltzer ads. I thought they were pretty good.

I haven't seen the llama one yet. I liked the guy at the office desk, everything he touched turned to skittles, poor guy!

I also like the Orkin ones where a giant insect comes knocking at the front door with a pizza box and then says Oh is that oak as he sees the foyer floor...I like watching him drive away in a car too.

I like the one for the Kia Soul where all the hamsters are going to work on their hamster wheels, and this car pulls up to one at a red light. The hamsters inside the car are listening to music and tapping their "hands" and bobbing their heads. Just too cute!

LOL - I didn't realize there were two pages to this thread. I posted mine at the end of page 1 before I read Wendy's!

Sammi, I think those Old Navy commercials are genius. Think of the money they are saving on actors and photo models for their print ads! All they have to do is dress up the mannequins and provide a voice-over for TV ads. It's a gimmick but they made it work for them.

I like the commercial for the movie UP. With the dog and him seeing a squirrel. Reminds me of our hunting dog. He looses all commen sense when he sees a squirrel. He went thru my screen in my front door because of a squirrel. I laugh ever time I see that commercial.

Barbszy, My dd works for Old Navy and she says the modelkins are kind of creepy in person. They even put an engagement ring on the modelkin who got engaged. they have different ads running throughout the store that are not on tv as well. And the employees are supposed to know each modelkin's story and relationships etc. I think the commercials are soooo funny. And you are right - it must save a ton of money.

Sammi, I think they're kind of creepy in the ads, too. But it is still a genius marketing move.
