There's so many awful comercials it's hard to pick a worst one.
Certainly that current 'Gas-X' ad, with people puffing up like blowfish, is repulsive. Denny's infamous "One ninety nine, are ya outta yer mind!?" slogan was memorably obnoxious (I'm sure that's the point.) And the local 'Bob's Furniture' spots give my channel-change button a lot of usage (the fact that they're *deliberately* amateurish doesn't make 'em any more watchable.)

Best: A lot fewer candidates for that title.
I recall a couple old ads for Miss Clairol and Kodak that had wonderful background music ('She Wakes Up The Morning' and 'Come Saturday Morning', respectively.) More recently, I found the 'Jerry Seinfield Conversing with Superman' one amusing. And if you count promos, CN used to regularly turn out great ones (who could forget what the Powerpuff Girls said to Wonder Woman?)

Wow to post all of them would take a life-time...so lets take the big ones

Best- Most bank commercials are in my liking....wierd but true. Also the recent pepsi commercial with that rapper walking looked interesting with its graphics. The marvel superheroes commercial was fun.

Worst- I hated that ozzy commercial for pepsi. Walgreens commercials with the perfect city was soo annoying. That horrible coke commercial with the people on the rooftop was soo bad I couldnt take them trying to get a 80's coke commercial turned into a modern one...horrible idea.

the bad:
though they were beloved by alot of people the quinzno "spongemonkey' ads which were somehow supposed to give you an appetite for food by looking at mutant roadkill

the really bad:
jared:mad: ...waiting for ronald mcdonald to walk in and ***** slap him during one of those mcdonald's bashing ads

the worst:
six words... 'can you hear me now??.......good.'

a great one that i always loved seeing was the yahoo ad with the man discovering an island paradise and a dolphin swims up to him and says 'how'd you find this place' and the man replies 'yahoo' he then asks the dolphin 'how did u learn to talk? *dolphin pauses............'yahoo' :D ..lol classic
