Kick-Ass Commercials (Super Bowl XXXVI)

February 5, 2002

Two more great ones from the Super Bowl:

Visa CheckCard
Kevin Bacon tries to make a purchase, the clerk asks for ID.
Kevin: "Wait a minute."
[Various shots of Kevin rounding people up and returning to the store.]
Kevin: "I was in a movie with [some name] as an extra, ...."
[Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon -- I'm sorry, I just can't remember it all]
Kevin: ".... and she used to go out with you. So you see, we're practically brothers."
[Clerk stares blankly at Kevin]

Bud Light
Wife: "Honey, I've got the black teddy on."
Husband [watching TV]: "Yeah, uh-huh."
[Ed. note: No TV show has ever been that good.]
Wife: "I put the satin sheets on the bed."
Husband: [non-committal grunt]
Wife: "I've got Bud Light."
[Husband jumps up, charges up the stairs, runs into the bedroom, jumps onto the bed, slides across the satin sheets and goes out the window.]
[Cut to exterior shot, Wife looking out window. A pair of boxers is hanging from a tree branch.]
Wife: "Honey, are you OK?"
