The Geico caveman commercials are hilarious.

Both of these rule. It took me like 10 times to realize that the tiny house one was for Geico, and not an actual preview. I was looking forward to that shit ;)

There's also a commercial for Gebco Auto Insurance around here that features Jonathan Ogden dancing with a bunch of second rate Fly Girls.

I don't know why, but the "You put de lime in de coke, you nut!" commercial for the lime-flavored Coke is hilarious to me.

I love the Toys "R" Us/Gran Turismo commercial where the mom brings the kids Gran Turismo, and the dad jumps off the stair case and breaks the shelf. That one cracks me up every time.

Sentimental, I know, but...
The animated United Airlines commercial that has a guy acing a job interview, and picking up a rose you assume is for his girlfriend. He protects it all the way home, and then hands it to his mom. "Rhapsody In Blue" is the background music.

It's just very well done and actually tells a little story. Nice.

I like the VISA joint in which the repo men sympathize for the guy who comes to pick up his car which was impounded because he "didn't see the sign".

"You didn't see the sign? I mean, you hear about it, but when it actually happens ... "

The commercial based on Lionel Richies video for "Hello" where the boy builds a bust of the girl he has a crush on, out of Starburst, and while describing it to her, he gets so worked up, he bites off the Starburst nose...

best commercial I have seen in a while.
