A brief recap of Superbowl commercials

First of all, I hope we can all appreciate the humor of having an ad before a commercial. It makes me think the folks at Hulu are geniuses!

Anyway, based on the little bit of chatter I’ve heard around The Nerdery, the Doritos crystal ball commercial was a big hit.

My favorite was the Coke ad with all the bugs. It’s a very pretty commercial.

And even though Go Daddy tried really hard to have the most overtly sexist commercial, I think Pepsi Max wins the award with their diet pop that’s good enough for men (though I have to admit until the tagline, the commercial did make me laugh. What is it about people getting hurt that’s so funny? Reminds me of the famous saying: comedy is you falling down a manhole, tragedy is me stubbing my toe). Bleh.

You can vote for your favorite commercial on Hulu.

However, I hope we all can agree that the best part of all the Superbowl hoopla was Bruce’s slide into the camera man:

    I appreciate your ability to have me relive The Boss smooshing his knuckles into the face of an intern.

    We, at The Nerdery, aim to please. My favorite part about the clip is the oopsie face he has after he peels himself off the camera.
