Favorite TV commercials



EDEN cheese - it starts out in a classroom of maybe 3rd graders. It's work ed class and the students made friendship bracelets. Before dismissal, the teacher said they should give what they made to their best friend. All but one proceeds to tie said bracelet on the wrist of one or other classmate. But one girl pauses to think, smiles, and rushes out to the playground where her mom has her lunchbox ready. She gets the cheese sandwich and then ties the bracelet in her mother's wrist -- the unspoken message here is that her mom is her best friend. How touching. each time I see it, I can't help but smile.

NEOZEP - I find this so bizarre but my son seriously thinks it's an intelligent commercial because it's so stupid people will tend to remember it. It has become a series of sorts where the housegirl and the son of the matron of the house fell in love in the first of the series. By the nth installment, the maid and her master who have since been married, are in a party, but not together. The houseboy/gardener sneezes and talks to the ex-maid. then from out of the bushes, the master appears and looks like he's about to hit the houseboy. The master shouts, "Aha" and proceeds to accost the houseboy. No, not to shout at him, but to give him a sheet of Neozep tablets. Then the three of them walk off together smiling. No enmity there.
