Funny TV Commercials

What are some funny commercials you have seen?

The funniest commercial I've seen lately is for a lawyer here in Connecticut named "Carter Mario." His motto is "Get Carter." Their latest commercial says "The following is a parody of Big Insurance." It starts off with the Geico Lizard with a bag over most of his body asking the receptionist to speak to "Get Carter." She asks him "Why the bag over your head?" He replies "My employer wouldn't like it if they knew I was here." The receptionist responds "Don't worry we get that a lot." The camera then pans over to the waiting area and it shows The Geico Caveman with his arm in a cast and The Geico Pig reading a pamphlet, trying to hide himself. The commercial ends with the Aflac Duck saying "Excuse Me."
 
If we can do local commercials, there's a group of commercials here for Morris Jenkins, which fixes heating and air condtioning, even at night. In one, Mr. Jenkins and his sidekick Bobby are sitting in the truck at night. Bobby doesn't seem too bright, saying, "Mr. Jenkins, where do you think the sun goes at night?" Then Mr. Jenkins gets a call from NASA, and Bobby says, "I told you not to call me here!" Then he gives them some complicated-sounding advice. Mr. Jenkins says, "Bobby, who ARE you?"

In another commercial Bobby sounds like tech support, giving a caller complex directions on how to solve the problem himself, making it sound really simple. Though wouldn't that sort of defeat the purpose, since they don't make any money that time?
 
I like the Geico commercial with Old MacDonald who fails to spell "cow" right. It's funny!
