You must be very annoying to out-annoy Dane Cook.

Andy K, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 01:00 (eighteen years ago)

frank caliendo is looking good in that department.

gr8080, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 01:03 (eighteen years ago)

i vote frank tv.

omar little, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 01:04 (eighteen years ago)

The sonic commercials suck but those guys do a live improv show in Chicago that is A+++

gr8080, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 01:05 (eighteen years ago)

AGAIN MUCH LIKE THAT YANQUI POLL YOU FORGOT "ALL" AS AN OPTION.

hstencil, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 01:18 (eighteen years ago)

THIS IS OUUUUUR COUNTRY

Brent, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 02:26 (eighteen years ago)

Dammit! The imposter is back.

And the Sonic guys are awesome.

boldbury, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 03:04 (eighteen years ago)

The thing that makes me weep about the fucking Mellencap song is that it made its debut last year during the playoffs AND IT WONT FUCKING DIE.

mayor jingleberries, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 04:43 (eighteen years ago)

I hope it never does

gabbneb, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 14:55 (eighteen years ago)

peter king declared that frank caliendo is the funniest man alive, funnier than john belushi even!

polyphonic, Tuesday, 9 October 2007 19:57 (eighteen years ago)

i like the high life guy.

gr8080, Friday, 12 October 2007 02:23 (eighteen years ago)

i like the show but that office commercial is really REALLY annoying.

Jordan Sargent, Friday, 12 October 2007 05:29 (eighteen years ago)

that shirt dane cook is wearing is funny ;_;

Jordan Sargent, Friday, 12 October 2007 05:30 (eighteen years ago)

also caliendo looks like early 2000s jay mariotti in that pic.

Jordan Sargent, Friday, 12 October 2007 05:30 (eighteen years ago)

ban Jordane Cook

am0n, Friday, 12 October 2007 13:21 (eighteen years ago)

i had to vote for dane cook cause hes the worst ever but the other two are certainly deserving as well.

jhøshea, Friday, 12 October 2007 13:24 (eighteen years ago)

i like the high life guy.

omg, jolly corpulent black man pulls Miller out of too-tony nightclub = pernicious bullshit

Dr Morbius, Friday, 12 October 2007 13:40 (eighteen years ago)

I mean as if that restaurant would serve High Life to begin with.

I giggled a bit when Caliendo's GWB said that Saturday was for western wear, and then I hated myself for it on principle.

polyphonic, Friday, 12 October 2007 16:26 (eighteen years ago)

high life dude is a douche.

Jordan Sargent, Friday, 12 October 2007 18:30 (eighteen years ago)

that frank tv guy is an impressive mimic but judging from the commercials there doesnt seem to be anything funny or good abt him

jhøshea, Friday, 12 October 2007 19:17 (eighteen years ago)

I've always wondered what it would be like if someone did an impression of Jack Nicholson.

Pleasant Plains, Friday, 12 October 2007 19:30 (eighteen years ago)

it would be like: hilarious. obv.

jhøshea, Friday, 12 October 2007 19:32 (eighteen years ago)

Dane Cook, because he would get assaulted by slam poets in the parking lot with a tire iron after delivering those crap lines.

Dimension 5ive, Friday, 12 October 2007 20:01 (eighteen years ago)

kinda dig the richard edson risk insurance one

am0n, Saturday, 13 October 2007 00:57 (eighteen years ago)

<i>i like the high life guy. </i>

Is that the same guy as the Dr. Pepper Touchdown Dance Guy?

boldbury, Saturday, 13 October 2007 02:05 (eighteen years ago)

snl just did an amusing dane cook parody

Michael F Gill, Sunday, 14 October 2007 04:02 (eighteen years ago)

miller masala's pretty bad, but not as annoying as dane cook. who isn't as annoying as "the captain" dudes. that shit must be stopped.

clooney is my favorite, of course. and i kinda like frank.

gabbneb, Monday, 15 October 2007 01:54 (eighteen years ago)

what do ppl think of the [CONTROVERSIAL MODERATOR EDIT] ads?

gabbneb, Monday, 15 October 2007 01:54 (eighteen years ago)

I must admit, the Sonic ads make me chuckle. MEAT RAGE LOL.

FrankTV gets my vote.

Belisarius, Monday, 15 October 2007 18:45 (eighteen years ago)

ELEVEN DOLLARS FOR A HAMBURGER?????

Mr. Que, Monday, 15 October 2007 20:08 (eighteen years ago)

i want to change my vote as Dane Cook just gets worse and worse.

mizzell, Monday, 15 October 2007 20:39 (eighteen years ago)

Rob Neyer: (12:33 AM ET ) Gee, I'd rather watch a funny guy than a beer commercial every time. If you just don't like impressions, fine. But the guy's really good at what he does.

polyphonic, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:26 (eighteen years ago)

Impressionists are the worst.

polyphonic, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:48 (eighteen years ago)

Not worse than ventriloquists and prop comedians.

Pleasant Plains, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 22:06 (eighteen years ago)

ok new MOST ANNOYING COMMERCIAL: the taco bell one where the guy lays down the rules for his brother or whatever he is

am0n, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 01:14 (eighteen years ago)

WAIT

They used the whole ELEVEN DOLLARS FOR A CAN OF TUNA joke on the 2nd High Life commercial?????? AAAAGGH

Mr. Que, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 01:21 (eighteen years ago)

the one High Life commercial when dude gets up on stage and yells "AAA!!" into the mic is pretty fucking funny though.

Stormy Davis, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 01:44 (eighteen years ago)

"Frank" was initially driving me fucking nuts, but it looks like they've toned it down a little now, Thank god.

so yeah, it'd have to be "THERE'S ONLY ONE OCTOBER" douche. Not to be all "I don't even own a TV" but honestly until I read this thread I had no idea who Dane Cook even was .. it was just one of those names i'd read. I just assumed the guy on the commercials was some douche who needed to comb his hair. but yeah he needs to die.

Stormy Davis, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 01:48 (eighteen years ago)

also quickly rising up the hatred scale: black dude from the Washington Mutual commercials who brainwashes children into being good little future car drivers.

Stormy Davis, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 01:52 (eighteen years ago)

those damn charles schwab commercials with that 'a scanner darkly' effect.
"i know my broker has bigger fish to fry, but does he have to be so obvious?" KILL YUORSELF.

Jordan Sargent, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 01:57 (eighteen years ago)

ok new MOST ANNOYING COMMERCIAL: the taco bell one where the guy lays down the rules for his brother or whatever he is

I can deal with that one because the girlfriend is hot, and also because I am a huge sucker for the ol' "1:, 2:, c:" joke.

polyphonic, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 05:22 (eighteen years ago)

confession: frank's GWB has made me lol a few times.

gr8080, Wednesday, 17 October 2007 06:05 (eighteen years ago)

dane cook isnt doing spots this year is he??

♪☺♫☻ (gr8080), Thursday, 2 October 2008 05:54 (seventeen years ago)

This time they got real live baseball players and... "bloggers" (?) instead?

Andy K, Thursday, 2 October 2008 11:52 (seventeen years ago)

omg THAT WAS SPOSED TO BE McCAIN!!!

I do think his Pacino armwaves are funny. Has anyone ever seen his show? not me.

Dr Morbius, Monday, 6 October 2008 16:05 (seventeen years ago)

am i bad person if i kinda like the bon jovi song?

mizzell, Monday, 6 October 2008 19:34 (seventeen years ago)

The Bon Jovi song is really not too bad, especially compared to something like "Have a Nice Day." As much as I'd love to listen to Flying Lotus coming out of the break, I'll take Bon Jovi over some shitty nu-rock band.

Frank TV is like one of the sketches on Mad TV that really, really don't work, spread laboriously over a half-hour. The commercials are much funnier than the sketches, and the commercials are awful.

Anyone here who doesn't have a DVR should really think about getting one. I've had one for about a month, and there is something really satisfying about skipping commercials during a sporting event.

polyphonic, Monday, 6 October 2008 20:16 (seventeen years ago)

It made watching last night's Sox / Angels tilt about 500 times easier (esp. wrt skipping over Chipper's spirited play-by-play).

David R., Monday, 6 October 2008 20:28 (seventeen years ago)

I usually flicked over to Turner Classic Movies every break, which made me think Barbara Stanwyck was a LOOGY.

little known fact: theres not actually a "show" called frank tv - or more specifically the commercials are the whole show - its part of the new "show within a sporting event" phenomenon thats sweeping the airwaves

joe six pak (ice crӕm), Monday, 6 October 2008 20:33 (seventeen years ago)

Caliendo plays CARNEGIE HALL next week.

In the DirecTV "poltergeist" spot, that's Craig T Nelson and footage w/ the little dead blond actress, right? Sick.

Dr Morbius, Friday, 17 October 2008 19:51 (seventeen years ago)

he's on letterman tonite

♪☺♫☻ (gr8080), Friday, 17 October 2008 19:52 (seventeen years ago)

Yeah, the DirecTV one's fucked up.

The "Poltergeist" one makes me mad. It doesn't even make sense!

polyphonic, Saturday, 18 October 2008 18:34 (seventeen years ago)

none of the directv ones make sense

eman, Saturday, 18 October 2008 23:21 (seventeen years ago)

Christie Brinkley having been preserved in amber for 25 years makes sense

Dr Morbius, Friday, 24 October 2008 15:18 (seventeen years ago)

Compared to the others, that Vacation one is the fakiest looking.

funky house skeptic (polyphonic), Saturday, 9 October 2010 17:20 (fifteen years ago)

In that Liberty Mutual commercial, the first lady does a good deed, which inspires another guy to do a good deed, which sets off a chain reaction that results in the original lady doing the exact same good deed she did in the first place, which suggests to me that we live outside of chronological time itself maybe.

ugh, yes, it's like they're all proud of being part of a banaka-style hivemind. Yuck. But then again, most commercials are "our product is so powerful awesome it will turn you into a gibbering veg" these days.
