I have to say Capital One's commercials are the best, because there is no doubt about what they're selling, you remember the name, and they are funny enough to have people talking about them like we are. Aflac commercials are great, because EVERYbody knows the name. They fall down in that it's not clear what they are selling. I have a pretty good idea, but I'm still not sure. Geico's commercials are great. I used to insure with Geico before Warren Buffet got them. I liked the Netscape Geeks debating between Netscape and Netzero, explaining the advantages of Netscape, and one of the Geeks switches to Netscape while they are talking and says "I'm a Netscape Guy." I like this commercial because it tells you everything you need to know, is clever and funny, and leaves no doubt about the advantages of its sponsor. I appreciate good commercials and hate poor ones. I have quite a list of poor ones, but they are so poor I can't remember them right now.
