I vote yearbooks over the Kia ad...though the link to the product was weak. The Kia ad was much better for the product, but I like the yearbook as a concept better.

How did the Walking Dead commercial not make the cut?
Brilliant!

The Humpty Dumpty and Spud McKenzie ghost spots were painfully weird but there they are at #15 and #19. I call shenanigans on the ratings system.

I thought the Audi commercial would have been better with a mom or maybe both parents.

Much as I despise "Snoop Dog", or whatever the hell he's calling himself these days, I thought the ad with him and Martha Stewart was funny.

The one with Mike & Molly where Molly kept searching for Mike but couldn't ever find him was the best. Looked like all that running around looking for Mike helped Molly drop a few pounds, too.

84 Lumber (which they were too chicken to show properly) was the best.

The Full Journey (5min 44 secs)

I heard they had to trim it to be acceptable for airing on that channel.

I can't imagine there would be a time slot lasting 4:55 to show the whole video. Isn't 30 seconds costing 3 million $? Plus, isn't the "watch the whole video" a tactic to get people to go to the site? Seems to have worked.
