Anybody remember the Duracell commercials with the battery people? The ads themselves are clever, but the characters are pretty creepy.

Just remembered another one. The guy who wakes up with that butt ugly Burger King in his bed. Even the voice over is creepy.

Those of us living in or around Cleveland will be familiar with the notorious commercials for Norton Furniture. For those who haven't, I'd like to introduce you to the source of my nightmares. Words cannot describe them, so I'd suggest you just watch.
That dude creeps me out! The guy sounds like Peter Lorrie! I seen one of those woman lamps at the Volo antique museum.

I'd forgotten that one.

Creepy just barely begins to describe it.

Prolly about the same time as June telling Ward while she (Tossed A Salad as she always did) "Ward weren't you a little rough on the Beaver last night?"

GEICO. Any company that's trying this hard to win your business can't be trusted.

The Burger "King" as previously mentioned is the creepiest I've seen to date.

I can't see myself ever buying anything from a guy that creepy. Those are just plain bad.

The Norton ads are funny as hell to me. Like that Go See Cal themesong, the chimp on roller skates is interesting. In Indiana there have been the Don at Don's Guns commercials for a couple decades or so. I was so sheltered as a kid I wasn't even phased by Don sporting the latest barely legal hand cannon inbetween reruns of Who's the Boss or whatever.
