Super Bowl XLV: The Commercials

While we have another thread for the game, this one is for discussing the commercials. Let us know which ones you liked and those you didn't care for.

One commercial about the NFL featured clips of various sitcoms in 'football related' situations sorta speak. There was a quick split-second shot of Ernie inviting some animals over to his apartment "for the game". Not sure what SS skit that it's taken from though.

Saw that one Alf was on it too but Ernie moment really made me Happy

of course i loved the bumblebee dealer ship one too

You can watch the commercials here...

The NFL spot with Ernie is called "NFL: Brand American" and by far our favorite spot of the night.

Let us know what you think of the commercials from this year's Super Bowl.

That's neat. A lot of cool TV clips there. Thanks for pointing that out.

Cool!

Great to see some new and old Muppet ads.

I will use some of these on my Facebook site - "Muppet Friday!" which you must all join up with asap!

Keep up the good work guys!

Apparently a while back someone shared a contest entry of theirs, in which a Cookie Monster parody puppet was eating Doritos, and the puppeteer stops feeding the puppet and feeds himself... it pulls out and there's a guy dressed like Frank Oz and a guy like Jim Henson, and the Jim Henson guy says cut it out or something like that.

It's a shame that one didn't win. Apparently it lost to someone sucking someone else's finger in an "awkward office" setting.

Wow! I didn't know it was 2005 again.

The only commercial I actually recall watching was the Doritos one (bringing things back to life). I saw the one with Ernie online and I liked it.

Saw the one with the various TV characters gathering to watch the Super Bowl. Some pretty clever and convincing editing there, too (such as Fonz hitting an edited-in big screen).
