Dough Boy - Pillsbury dough boy
My favorite has always been and still is the Pillsbury dough boy. You don't see many commercials anymore with him in them, but I still like him the most. There are other good ones too, but he is the cutest I have ever seen.

I like the energizer bunny. The bunny just keep on druming while it walks on every corner.

Oh yea, I forgot about Chester Cheetos. I like him too but the gnome is still my favorite. In fact I got a little Travelocity gnome from a hotel that I stayed at in Los Angeles. Their front office manager said that their Travelocity rep. comes by every so often and drops off gifts. It is about 6 inches tall and is pretty cool.

I love the M & M dudes. It could be just because I love M & M's but I think it's because the commercials are a trip. Speaking of commercial icons, did nayone else get freaked out with the Burger King commercials? They were just plain scary! LOL

The M&M characters are awesome. Each new commercial that comes out with them become funnier and funnier. As for the Burger King commercials....they are kind of strange but I think that they are sooooo cool!! I love them.

Mine would have to be the Energizer Bunny b/c he's so cute and the Koolaid Man b/c I grew up with him. They both bring back great memories. "COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS" **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

There were so many great ones listed here, the Travelocity Gnome, the Energizer Bunny, etc. but my favorite has got to be the Aflac Duck. I can't help it, I just love that duck! Also, does anyone remember Morris the Cat? He was such a beautiful kitty and he was rescued from a shelter where he was about to be put down. He was the epitomy of the finicky cat, plus he had that smug "attitude" about him that all cats have. Ooh, and I almost forgot to mention that gorgeous Fancy Feast Persian cat! Annie
