08.Feb.2010 The Best and Worst Commercials of Superbowl XLIV - Will

Another Superbowl has come and gone. For NFL fans and advertising junkies alike, it is one of the most anticipated and  entertaining days of the year. For the most part, this year’s Superbowl spots returned to humor and comedic violence. From deadly doritos to punch buggy no punch backs, there were more than enough slap-stick gags to go around.

Two commercials stood out in particular- the first being Monster.com’s “Fiddling Beaver” commercial.

In a recent Wall Street Journal analysis of this year’s Superbowl ads, this fiddling beaver was quoted to be “the Susan Boyle of beavers.” Interestingly enough, Susan Boyle looks remarkably like a beaver.

For those of you who used the commercial breaks to go refill your beers, you can watch all of the Superbowl ads at your convenience online here. All of them except one: Tim Tebow’s much anticipated “Focus on the Family” ad. Why? Probably because it is so lame that Focus on the Family is doing everything within its power to keep it off the internet so it can’t be ridiculed by people like us.

Thankfully we live in 2010- an age where there are about 5 million camcorders sold annually in the US, and every second there are ten seconds of footage being uploaded to youtube.

A little background research on this “organization” reveals some troubling information. It appears that Timmy is not only trying to single handedly stiff arm the gays of America, but also advocating domestic violence against women with this commercial.

What do you think about this year’s Superbowl commercials?

Is there an inverse relationship between beauty and musical talent?

Do you think we will see more of Tim Tebow in pro-life advertising to come?
