This ad is completely ridonkulous on every level. So ridonkulous that the accompanying mariachi jingle is actually the least nonsensical thing about it. It features a hotdog and a bottle of French’s mustard on a date at a restaurant....

Late last night, as we were suffering from a bout of insomnia, we were greeted by a television spot for this little number—the Trojan Vibrating Touch. A battery-powered vibrator you wear on your finger. We were struck by it...

. We never watch ESPN, like, ever. So it’s no surprise that we just saw this spot for the first time last night. It’s called “Bounce” and it’s aimed at the late night crowd at Burger King. It was...

Watching American Idol for the first time last night allowed us to discover a side of America that we find more disturbing than a John Waters film. Like this Guitar Hero spot that features our little mormon boy dancing...

Not content to endlessly annoy solely English-speaking audiences, the Energizer has decided to add a “Latin beat” to its iconic bunny’s constant, brain-numbing drumming: Energizer Holdings Inc. of Town and Country has a new campaign to connect Spanish-speaking consumers...

An ill-placed ad for Chevy Silverados, the truck used by a character in the primetime drama “Cane,” gave away a major plot point during the show: When he took off, Jamie drove the Chevy into the family cane fields,...
