Blockbuster Online Fake Mouse
Blockbuster is tired of eating NetFlix’s dust, but that’s no excuse for this piece of crap. Sure, it’s a cute idea, but CG talking animals are so 2006, don’t you think?
Plus, as laptop sales surpassed desktop sales last year for the first time, they could have made touchpad jokes. But, no, they went with the mouse, way too easy, in our book.
That being said, the Blockbuster Online service is a decent competitor to the almighty NetFlix, and they even have games, you nerd. – Hickey

We’re not actually going to talk about that SalesGenie.com abortion. – Blake
Go Daddy
Go Daddy is trying hard for domain dominance. Its commercial was pretty lackluster but it pulled the sex appeal deliberately enough that it could sway some toward its product.
View it here. – Blake
Grab Your Garmin
Garmin Nuvi commercial with a Starman theme was awesome. Evil map-o-zaurus! Epic battle.
Grab your Garmin and take on the world. I love it. – Blake
Dear Career Builder Dot Com:
I haven’t played Lemmings in years. And I was OK with that. Thanks for making me want to break out the 386. I’m not sure what the message of your ad was, but I didn’t get it. instead, I saw pasty 30-something men shirtless, dirty, and in a jungle. Were that what I wanted, I know how to get to Florida on my own.
Thanks! – Hickey
Sprint’s Manly Problem
Do you suffer from connectile dysfunction? If so, please consult your local wireless specialist for information about how you can cure yourself of slow, or worse no, wireless broadband.
Side effects may include draconian contract terms, spotty coverage, unreasonable cash payouts, bluetooth atrophy and rickets. – Blake
Vapid Update
I’m not sure what Charles Barkley has to do with that T-Mobile commercial, but if I had his number, he’d be in my Top 5 Faves. That is a fact.
It was good, but no K-Fed showing off Britney’s money. And yes, Federline, I would like fries with that. – Hickey
Hewlitt-Packard Rides to Live, Lives to Ride
When I think of powerful processors, like the the new quad-core monsters HP’s pushing, I think of tattoos, motorcycles, and dragons. That’s why I’m glad the processors were introduced using the Orange County Choppers dudes. Nice, HP, nice. Now I wanna ride my hog and upgrade.
What’s really great is the tagline, “Computers are personal again”, because nothing says “personal” like a moustached, hulking biker. – Hickey
All Good Things
So the underdog Colts defeated the mighty Bears, 29-17. I’m not sure which of the two were most noticably absent: decent commercials or Chicago’s defense. But we’re done, so it’s time to kick back and switch our HDTV to Rome on HBO. Won’t you join us? – Hickey
The Godaddy commercial is live on their website – http://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/media/lounge.htm?ci=7880&tab=sbcom

hey, I’m live blogging too. Good coverage. Do you have the link to the salesgenie bit?
Sorry Jeremiah, we’ve been looking but they haven’t posted it yet. :(
Jeremiah,
I just linked to it in the post.
I’ve linked to this resource of on demand ads, CBS is posting them in real time. They player doesn’t seem to be working well for some reason.

So absolutely no Apple commercial? :(
Not a one.
Apple > fanboy. Pwnage.
Oh by the way, didn’t you guys see all the Budweiser commercials? Like Rock beats Paper? those were great.
The best commercial was Letterman and Oprah..which goes to show how sad the commercials was this year. IMAO
@ Jon Lee
i thought the same thing, the Buds were the best, but P/S/Rock was the best one, imo. :)
I’m still pouting about the Bears second half – thanks for rooting for the underdog, Blake.
The Nationwide ad got way more press than it deserved on K-Fed, btw.
Favorite was also the Letterman-Oprah commercial.
