Super Bowl commercials

This one's not bad.

This Kate Upton commercial was banned, but only after CBS executives watched it 75 times before making a decision.

Why don't they simply put all women in potato sacks if they're so worried about "offending" somebody.

At $4 million for 30 seconds, I'm a little surprised Carl's Jr. can afford that anyway

If it's me, I'm making a commercial that's essentially porn. It's going to get banned. It's going to end up in circulation for days after the SB every time someone runs a "Too hot for prime time" segment. Don't have to pay the $4 million but get loads of exposure.

I'm all worked up for a Southwest Patty Melt right now. Only at Carls Jr!

Exactly. If I had an extra $8 million to blow, I'd put straight up porn on a 60 second commercial.

Like Brewster's Millions when he bought prime time TV to announce his candidacy for Mayor.

Can they actually ban something you are willing to pay for? I suppose they could if they find someone else to pay for the same spot with a more "tasteful" ad, I guess. I'd offer to pay more just to get it on the TV. If everyone knew it was coming up, how many people on the planet would be watching?

Carl's Jr has this down perfectly.

Make a controversial ad with the exact intention of getting rejected. As expected, get rejected by network. Major buzz, goes viral, OMG LOOK AT {insert whatever is controversial}. Tons of comments, forwards, shares, articles on blogs, Ad Age, etc. And, don't have to pay the outrageous costs of actually running on the Super Bowl.

I love seeing smart marketing. In a crowded and not all that differentiated segment, they've created tons of buzz and awareness. All for the cost of talent and production - which is mice nuts compared to the costs of the media buys. Getting that kind of awareness without a massive broadcast campaign used to be impossible, and honestly, still is amazingly difficult.

I've been on a healthy eating kick for the past few years (after 50), but damn I want one of those Carl's Jr/Hardee's Southwest Patty Melts.

This one is my favorite

there was a burger in that commercial?

Duh!!!! Multiple burgers.

Other than a few times I watched the SB at a party I have never seen a commercial, IMO that is why God created the clicker. There is always something else on another channel or something to do for those couple of minutes.

I never understood why anyone would subject themselves to ads for something they are not interested in. My policy is just not for the SB but all tv watching or radio listening. I toss out junk mail, political ads etc, why not tv commercials?

Yep, which is why you do the sexual full court press with Kate Upton. Burger = sex bomb pussy. They know the demographic, including the response of their demographic to the manufactured controversy. They create a brand loyalty all while running a serious T&A spot that will be watched for spank bank material for years to come. They do all of this without dropping coin based on the hoopla of Super Bowl commercials itself.

This commercial is from last year. I saw it countless times on tv, so it wasn't banned, though it was eventually edited/shortened to remove some of the risque stuff

I'm suddenly hungry for potatoes.

George Carlin telling Bill Hick's this is how legends tell a story.

Full disclosure!!!! It's George Carlin. Language alert!

I expect Go Daddy to have a few racy ones this year. But, they may have tamed theirs down a little recently.

A little less Danica will help.

I can't believe that an X4 member is in a Super Bowl ad today.

Our very own computer nerd FEDYA, gets kissed by Bar Refaeli on a GO Daddy ad.

Read that this commercial took 65 takes to get it right. I wonder how many times the nerk messed it up on purpose?

Go Daddy commercial

nerk? I like it, a nerd who is being a jerk. Hey, that sounds like my whole chess club when I was in high school. They used to pick on me all the time.

Leon Sandcastle

That Go Daddy commercial was just gross.

I thought the Oreo commercial was the funniest...

It's kind of like the god stuff, pablum that caters to certain idiots.

Watching that Kate Upton commercial makes one realize just how lucky Justin Verlander really is as he is the guy with the hose putting her fire out and cooling her down.

Thought the Paul Harvey/Dodge/Farmers commercial was pretty good.

Anyone going to change their buying habits or purchase a product because of any one of these commercials?

I'm going to stop having meaningless sex with Clydesdales, obviously they have feelings too.

liar

The really hard part is getting this over his... err... her horseshoe.
