GEICO has some great spots right now...I like the "Tiny House" one even more so the CAVEMAN one. Those who have seen it know what I'm talking about...

I saw a Bud Light one during the championship game with the steamroll driver, "Those things pretty much drive themselves".

If I was at my house and opened the window to find that guy standing there with a sandwich, I'd freak out and attack him. I'm never eating at Burger King again.


I couldn't stop laughing when I read this post. My wife said the same thing. The second commercial, with the "king" out in the yard, then the guy looks away and when he looks back that psycho is right at the door... that is some freaky smack. I almost jump every time I see it. Maybe its just me, I was also freaked out by Steve Kings "It" when it came out on tv. The "Burger King" reminds me of that stupid clown. I hate that smile. :twisted:


PENNYWISE! i couldnt even look at a clown for about 10 years after that movie. oh wait, the 10 years isnt up yet......

....and Bentiss beat me to it. i havent laughed at commercial in a while until i saw the "Tiny House" spot from Geico. the last commercials that really tripped me out were Super bowl commercials. do you remember "Terry Tate: Office Linebacker" or the one from this year where the horse farted and blew up the people in the sled behind him. was that Budweiser?
peace.

the best part was he came to Boston for marathon monday and was handing out fake tattoos and t-shirts with some slogan that went along with the commercial

The tiny house should be a real TV show, itd be pretty funny for the first few weeks.

Terry Tate was the man, they should bring those back during the season coming up. "Here comes the pain train!! WHOOO WHOOO!!"

It's sad to say, I own that movie on DVD. Everyone who watches thinks its great, once they get over what's actually going on. I couldn't believe it, one of my sophomores actually owns the movie Red Dawn on DVD.... and he loves it.

I think Everyone would watch Tiny House.

The first time I saw the Tiny House commercial I actually thought they were making a real show. It didn't seem too outrageous these days. When I realized it was a Geico commercial I thought it was hilarious, but started thinking that could be a real show. It would be great, can't be any worse than any of the other reality programs.

I saw that once in a store and couldn't stop laughing. Also bad, after they made The Substitute, the came out with The Substitute 2: School's Out, which featured a totally new cast. Then a couple years ago, I was at home for Christmas and turn on Cinemax late at night to find The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All which was the same people as in 2. Then last year, I turn on Cinemax again to find out there is a The Substitute 4: Failure Is Not an Option which features a whole new cast. Talk about pure crap.
