The Super Bowl is over. The Saints won. Peyton Manning sucks. Nothing new. The real entertainment comes from the infamous commercials, and other than a lackluster showing by the beer companies,  this year’s ads stole the show once again.

Cell Phones
By far the funniest cell phone commerical was the Motorola Megan Fox ad. And to make things even better, she’s not wearing any clothes the whole thing. I don’t even remember if there were any other cell phone commercials but this was one of the few ads during the entire game that I could actually pay attention to for all 30 seconds.

Food
The McDonalds commercial with Dwight Howard and LeBron James’ wins this category. It was decently funny, but the dunks were also just filthy (even though they probably weren’t real). Honorable mention goes to Coke for their African Safari commercial, although Coke loses points for its stupid Simpsons commercial.

Beer
An absolute disappointment from the beer companies. Normally the funniest out of all the commercials, we were stuck watching stupid Lost parodies and T-Pain references. Bud Light wins the category, but only for their Book Club commercial where the girl asks the guy if he likes Little Women and he says “I’m not picky.” No honorable mentions because just about all the rest were terrible

Car
The Audi Green Police ad was the funniest, although it was really more of an environment ad than a car ad. Honorable Mentions go to the Volkswagen SlugBug commercial with Tracy Jordan and Stevie Wonder, and the Brett Favre 2020 MVP Hyundai Sonata commercial, because nobody likes Brett Favre.

Website
Normally I don’t like their stupid baby commercials, but the E-Trade commercials on Sunday were actually pretty funny. Personal favorites were the Milkaholic commercial with the little baby booty call (Milkawhat?) and the Airplane commercial. Honorable mention goes to Monster for the commercial with the beaver violinist.

Overall
Despite disappointments from many sides, this year’s Doritos commercials made up for any poor showings from other companies. The Samurai one and the House Rules one (“keep yo hands off mah momma, keep yo hands off mah Doritos”) were easily the funniest of the whole game, and were definitely my personal favorites. These commercials were by far the high point of the Super Bowl.
