My Surmise

My Favorite 5 commercials of Super Bowl 44:

1. Snickers - Betty White Plays Football (above)
2. Doritos - Kid Slaps Man
3. E*TRADE - Babies and the Ladies
4. CareerBuilder.com - Casual Fridays
5. Doritos - Tim's Locker

An honorable mention to KGB's Sumo Texting ad. It was very funny and I had trouble eliminating it.

Bud Light really disappointed me this year. For the last two years one of their ads had been my favorite, but this year they didn't even make the top 5.

I thought it was very interesting that Google placed an ad in this years super bowl. Not the funniest ad, but I though it was interesting and effective.

Something was definitely missing with Pepsi's decision to not run any ads and instead focus on their social media campaign. Hope they choose to advertise next year.

Had a wtf? moment when I saw the Sketchers Shape-Ups ad, which even aired twice. Those things look absolutely ridiculous! I also question how effective those can really be at getting you into shape.

Overall a good year for super bowl commercials, I had some trouble limiting my list down to just 5.
