So far, there have been a couple duds and a few good ones.

Kim K. - dud

Couric/Gumbel - I thought this one was funny.


Which ones have you liked or disliked?

Any ad with Gumbel in it should lead to a boycott of the advertiser, I change my wife's TV station when he comes on.

Normally, I would agree, but he didn't get to veer from the script in this one and it used footage from a couple decades ago with the two of them. As with many of these commercials, the content had little to do with the product being advertised. I still thought the premise was funny.

My favorite is, as usual, the Budweiser Clydesdale & little dog commercial. That one spoke to me. :cheers2:

Been watching it streaming live on NBC from my laptop to my Apple TV. What we are seeing has most of the ads blocked, and there's just a superbowl "screensaver" during the commercials.

I turn the channel during all football games, especially the Super Bowl, during commercials. if I don't want my kids seeing it, then I don't want to see it either.

I watched the game with the TV on mute and off during half time.

Doesn't matter to me if he followed the script, he still needs to be muzzled. Yes, he has a right to free speech, but not inflammatory stuff like he is responsible for, he has insulted me directly, as a member of the NRA, and deserves to be censured.

What game, what commercials? It is Katy Perry that rocked the show.
Seriously, I enjoyed the game and I was a fan for the Patriots, I am glad they won.

I understand what you're saying and that's why I'm pointing out that he didn't speak freely, which you say he has a right to do. The powers that be also probably didn't want him speaking freely after the barrage of complaints they've received over that other nutbag going on his anti-2A rant a couple years ago.
