    I was pretty disappointed in the whole collection...

    I guess it's been so hyped for so many years, at some point, people just run out of new and entertaining ideas...

        I liked the Budweiser human bridge best, but also thought most of the Doritos and Bud Light commercials were funny.

            I second that. We almost fell off the couch laughing at that one.

              For some reason my girls thought this one was hysterical and replayed it half a dozen times.

                  I guess the ads were okay but they kept interrupting them with that game. I finally turned it off at halftime; I just couldn't take it anymore. Hope they don't ruin the Olympics by breaking every minute and half for more ads. I know they have to pay for it but at some point enough is too much.

                  PS I agree with Pappy - loved the dog collar.

                      the surprise for me was Letterman, Leno and Winfrey.
                      Never in 100 years expected that one. Low key humor.
                      Apparently they're still good friends and they did this mostly for fun. or at least I'm having trouble who stands to gain much from it. From what I've read, CBS donated 15 seconds for the spot, No money exchanged hands and NBC flew Leno on the Co. jet to NYC.
                      Winfrey and Leno snuck in in diguise to Letterman's Ed Sullivan Theater at the end of the daily taping, then made the spot after the audience left.

                        Jay was saying last night that an NBC exec came running up a week ago in a panic about the secret taping that Letterman did. Jay never wised him up.

                          Ah I didn't really like any of them. Perhaps they should hire these guys If you don't speak the language, it's basically a guy who goes to the office of his insurance company to file a claim.

                            Loring, that was a great spot and a total suprise to me. I was also unaware that Dave and Oprah did something similar last year. Another part of the story was this was all planned before NBC created the late night mess. Dave wanted Conan there too, but things didn't work out. That was before the fallout also, not because of it.

                              I thought the "Green Police" commercial was funny on so many levels.
