"The commercials aren't that good this year anyway.."

[Saving Hawaii]

Damnit Obama. Stop sending me annoying text messages. Got something cool to say? Say it. But don't tell me that the Superbowl commercials suck.

[physioex]

1. Yep....

They did overhype the wittiness.....

[The Wielding Truth]

2. I just saw the FIAT commercial. Loved it! GM, you know.

3. Fiat/Dodge/Chyrsler

Not GM

19. I was going by this.

{GM and Chrysler are operating on a combined $17.4 billion in government loans approved by the Bush administration in December. They had until March 31 to prove they were viable to qualify for more loans. The two automakers have asked for another $21.6 billion.

The president's auto task force said Chrysler needs to partner with the Italian car company Fiat, which has "committed to building new fuel-efficient cars and engines right here in the United States," Obama said in a speech at the White House.

"Fiat is prepared to transfer its cutting-edge technology to Chrysler," he said.

He gave Fiat and Chrysler 30 days to reach an agreement and said the government will provide Chrysler with "adequate capital" to operate in the meantime.

Later, on Chrysler's website, Chairman and CEO Bob Nardelli said Chrysler and its parent, Cerberus Capital, have "reached agreement on the framework of a global alliance" with Fiat.

Obama spoke as GM Chairman Rick Wagoner resigned at the behest of the White House. Obama said the decision is not "a condemnation" of Wagoner, but rather "a recognition that it will take a new vision and new direction to create the GM of the future."http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/2009-03-30-bailout-wagoner_N.htm}

8. I was admiring one parked on the street today.

West 76th street in Manhattan.

Looks not unlike the Fiat 850 that sold here in the early 70s.

Bigger than a Smart Car but smaller than a vw bug.

20. Fiat / Abarth Commercial

One Hot Commercial

4. The best so far ...

[Bozita]

5. Yup, by a mile!

[Bozita]

14. #2: Here Wego! (Bud Light/shelter dogs promo)

Man's best friends!

[customerserviceguy]

22. I don't drink Bud

but that was a great commercial. They usually have at least one every Super Bowl worth talking about the next day at work.

6. Some should take their own advice.

[Smarmie Doofus]

7. Not as vulgar and violent as usual.

The woman head-butting the guy in the face to get some yogurt......that's supposed to be funny?...... that would be the most notable exception.

So far.

[Peregrine Took]

9. Agreed. n/t

[deutsey]

10. Pretty bland except for the Eastwood one n/t

[dhill926]

11. agreed.....

very lame this year. Seinfeld ok. Eastwood good. Otherwise.....sheesh.....not at all what was promised. At least they put a bunch of folks to work here in LA.

[dflprincess]

12. I really liked the Matthew Broderick commercial

but I will confess to watching that on line a couple days ago. I'm not watching the game so I have no idea if it ran yet.

[JSnuffy]

13. They do suck...

...

I am pulling out the highlights for my wife in a different time zone and frankly it is slim pickings.

[Tx4obama]

15. Here's a link that has most of the VIDEO ads embedded in one place

[Brickbat]

16. They were shitty, that's for sure.

[Honeycombe8]

17. Why do you get text messages from Obama? But I thought the ads were better than usual.

I loved them. I didn't see all of them, since I didn't watch the game...just spot checked for score.

The polar bears/Coca Cola....I always love those, and this time didn't disappoint. Clint Eastwood & Detroit...excellent.

[Johnny Noshoes]

18. The company I used to work for...

was a media monitoring company and the Monday after the game was our Black Monday. Well they went bankrupt last August and this year is the first time since 1980 that I don't have to deal with Super Bowl commercial reels or uploads of the ads. Do I miss my job - yeah. Will I miss "Super Bowl Monday" - hell no. The Eastwood ad was great.

Great game - YEAH BIG BLUE!

[shanti]

21. you mean

people actually watch commercials? that's what DVR/Tivo's are for.
