Mayhem—like him




I don’t watch much TV, but when I do I really don’t like commercials.  That’s what a DVR is for right?  Most of the time commercials are just a waste of time.  The only time (and I know I’m not alone) I watch TV strictly for the commercials is during the Super bowl when advertisers make an effort to make their commercials creative and fun to watch.

Every so often, though, a commercial comes along that breaks the boring rule, and it’s actually better than the program one is trying to watch.  Remember the “Where’s the Beef?” commercials…. oops I’m showing my age here. 

If I could I would like to give a Crystal Clear award for the best commercials.  My fave right now is the Allstate Mayhem guy.  If you don’t have it where you live, you are missing a group of fun advertising magic.

    There are very few commercials I enjoy, either. And I record almost everything I watch anymore so I can FF through them--but I do get a kick out of the mayhem ones, too. I love the new dog one with the shock collar--LOL! ;)

    I love my DVR! Sometimes I forget to skip through the commercials, anyway. I do like the Mayhem guy. There are actually a lot of car insurance commercials out there that I like.
