Aside from the Saints' historic victory in their first Super Bowl appearance, everyone's talking about the top Super Bowl commercials. Traditionally, the Super Bowl is when the companies which can afford to do so will trot out their flashiest ads. These tend to be either huge hits or colossal failures. The Betty White Superbowl commercial was probably my favorite, but these are presented in no particular order. So, with no further ado, my four top Super Bowl Commercials for 2010 are:

Green Police (Audi) Green shorts, and that COPS-style video quality.
Betty White (Snickers) "That's not what your girlfriend said": throwaway line sells the whole thing. Also, Abe Vigoda taking a huge hit.
Lost (Budweiser) Including this one for subject matter alone. Sorry.
Punchdub (Volkswagen) The Stevie Wonder/Tracy Morgan bit almost ruins a simple and effective series of VW-is-everywhere scenes.

Interestingly, these are ads for products which I either don't use or don't like. They aren't, in this case, successful as ads, but as tiny bites of random entertainment.

Betty White rocks! And Abe too. Get rid of all the female hating commercialsBridgestone - throw out you wife rather than you tiresBud light - screw up your wife's book club and that is okDodge - do household chores (somehow this is not something men are responsibility for) and get your carDon't remember the product - grow a spine, something about shopping with a womanand on and onguess they don't want women watching the superbowl
