30 seconds of commercial time this year cost $4 million, tying the record set last year.

Which were your favorites?

2011, 2012, 2013

I loved the "America the Beautiful" ad but then I went onto the internet and found out that only English-speaking caucasian people are allowed to love America. :(

Yeah, one of my politically volatile, ultra-conservative Facebook friends was not happy about that one either. >_> I don't understand why people can't just lighten up.

I, for one, loved it. As a future translator/linguist, I think that commercial is perfect. :inlove:

I found this a very disappointing year in the commercial area. Just a few stuck out to me.


This one was my favorite; not surprising that it was from Doritos as they’ve been a star here for a while:




Also this one:




Others I liked:
This one made me laugh:




As did these:




And Tebow’s were funny:

Overall I agree that these definitely were not as good as in past years, but there were still some I really liked.

My two favorites were the "America the Beautiful" and the "British Villains Rendezvous." (I may or may not have squeaked repeatedly when I saw Tom Hiddleston. :- )



My other highlights:
Both Doritos commercials were good, I thought.










I confess I enjoyed the David Beckham commercial, and I had to laugh at the Oikos yogurt one. I'm not posting either of those, though lol.
