Okay, here’s one for the lighter side.
The only thing I miss about not having TV is great commercials. But with YouTube, no problem.
This is my absolute, all-time favorite SuperBowl spot (other than the incomparable “1984”, of course). From 2007, I believe.
On the other hand, I never saw this one until this afternoon. But it could really be my second favorite. From SuperBowl 1999 …
Have you seen “green police” ad? Ain’t it our worst nightmare and very possible near future?
Yep, I’ve seen the “green police” ad. I didn’t know whether to think of it as satire or what. But definitely, it creeped me out. Unlike the old “1984” ad where the brutish police are clearly agents of Big Brother, the nasty “green cops” in that ad could be seen as good guys. In one hell of a twisted way. I dunno. Mostly I thought it was just plain bizarre. Watched it once. Never want to see it again.
The Wall Street Journal has a page where you can watch all the SB XLIV ads and vote on the best and the worst. The Audi commercial was leading BOTH categories.
