Most people cannot stand commercials, but many of them have been very creative lately, so they seem to get a lot more attention.
One commercial that came to my mind was a Stride Gum commercial, where the guy is talking on the phone, smacking a piece of gum in his mouth (I assumed it was a phone commercial at first) and suddenly a ram comes out of no where as he is crossing the street and plunges the guy in the stomach, forcing him to spit out his gum. Then the Stride people are saying to get a new piece already, and this van drives up next to the guy, takes the gum and then speeds off. Haha. It's brilliant.
So, while a commercial break is on, what is your favorite commercial you hope comes on?

im from the Philippines and i guess you wouldn't know about this current Colgate commercial. there's nothing special about it, it's just that my 3-month old daughter perks up when she hears the commercial tune which goes a little something like chiki-chiki-chik. i always hope it comes on especially when she's crying because it is guaranteed to make her stop (of course she resumes crying when the commercial's over but what can yo expect from a 3-month-old. hee hee)

I guess the best one for me is for some car insurance company and I don't know what company it is for but there are 2 squirrels hanging out by the side of the road and a car is coming, one of the squirrels runs out into the road and you can hear tires squealing then the other squirrel joins his friend and gives him a high five. I laugh everytime.
