With 2015 coming to a close sooner than you think, let us look back at the television commercials that made us laugh and put a smile on our little faces, as well as the atrocities of the advertising world, animated or not. So, which ones stuck out to you as a favorite, and which ones would you consider so horrible, you can't describe HOW horrible they are?

My favorites-

I love the Rankin-Bass TV specials, and I was charmed by this series of ads for A.T.&T.

My dad worked for Hasbro, and this commercial, along with others in this series, really tickled his and my fancies.

Only seen this little gem a few times, but the 2D animation is what draws me into it.

Really love the design of these two ads. Whoever produced these two spots, I congratulate them on making these diamonds in the rough.

Like the Casper ads, what sells this spot for me is the design.

It's just... odd seeing this inflatable world.

I... have no idea what to say about these rotten eggs.

All the ads FlexSeal has done are just awful. Phil Swift doesn't even come close to Billy Mays as best pitchman of all times.

Quoth Mr. Stubborn from "The Mr. Men Show"- "These ads are CHEAP!" The first one has just some clipart talking, along with some stock footage, whilst the other two merely have stock footage and a fake doctor. The kinds of stuff Mr. Krabs would make had he ventured into the knee brace business.

Another cheap one. Just some words in various colors being typed out like an old typewriter, with an announcer reading them. Just horrible.

If you have too many favorites or least favorites, just give us 3-5 for each.
 
Oh my gosh. You made this topic at the perfect time. Back in 2012, the PA lottery ended its commercials using their mascot, Gus the Groundhog. People had mixed feelings about him-some thought he was creepy, and some liked him. He was one of my favorite mascots. But as I watched TV last night, by some miracle...they brought him back! :whoo: And it was my favorite commercial of his, too. Made my day. The actual ad isn't online anywhere but here is another ad featuring him:

I also enjoyed this Peanuts commercial:

I also enjoyed the Rudolph AT&T ads.

I'd assume you'd know why at this point.
 
Worst: SNACKEEZ. It is so bad that I don't even want to put a video up.
 
we have a local knee brace ad kinda like those
"CATCH ME IF YOU CAN KIDDO"

I'm stunned he hasn't shown up yet, actually.

Anyway, for my worst: the Mazda commercials they've been coming out with this year. The narrator is just completely craptastic and annoying to listen to..sounds more like he's reading a bedtime story to a two-year-old then talking about cars.
 
Okay, you guys may be expecting me to say my favorite commercials of this year since I love commercials, but the only favorite I can think of is the Snickers Brady Bunch commercial. :P
 
For me it goes like this

I love that one! And Steve Buscemi in the end is like the cherry on top.
 
Oh yes. I could I forgot the Ty Peek a boo ad? Encouraging more 4 year olds to want cell phones since 2015. Keep it classy, guys.
