Carl's Jr. has a Philly Cheesesteak Burger which combines thinly sliced steak and the usual Philly Cheesesteak toppings with one of their Thickburgers. In order to promote this artery clogger, Carl's Jr. called on a man despised in Philly - Terrell Owens.  The result is a commercial with a few laughs and some major boobage.  http://youtube.com/watch?v=o0EzeStwP5I?rel=0 […]

Coors Light commercials weren't always about a speeding silver bullet train randomly bursting through city landscapes.

Kmart's ads are almost bipolar. We've praised the Ship My Pants, Big Gas Savings and Yo Mama commercials, but then we've been forced to ridicule the store's bizarre and completely humorless holiday GIF commercials.  After their spectacular holiday flop, Kmart decided to call on and old, yet successful strategy: Shipping pants.

We've given Kmart a lot of praise over the last several months. With commercials based around "yo mamma" jokes and pronunciation humor, we believed the retailer had raised the bar for traditionally boring, humorless commercials from big-box stores.  That belief has been shattered. Kmart rolled out this…thing…which depicts a grandma acting crazy. In reality, it's […]

Tidy Cats created a new lightweight cat litter. It's actually a pretty brilliant idea considering how bulky and heavy a container of cat litter can be, but unfortunately the marketing around the new product isn't as intelligent.  "Hey!
