Well, we've had the appalling adverts - and there's plenty to choose from. How about adverts you enjoy, ones that make you laugh etc. Personally I hate adverts, but there are exceptions to every rule and two for me are:

-The Cravendale Milk ads. "MIIILK!! MIIILK!!"

-Those sweet adverts - "BRING ON THE TRUMPETS!!"

I guess they just appeal to my peurile sense of humour, but I love 'em! thumbup

the carling 'you know who your mates are' ads are pretty amusing..

there are also several viral ads that don't make it to tv for various reasons that are a giggle:

Volume up...

This one does it for me. Depending on how much I've had to drink, I can get quite emotional!

Anyway that aside, it makes me consider selling family members / bodyparts to buy one, so it must work!

Also like the Lynx / Cadbury ones.

Bring on the trumpets makes me smile, but my favourite at the moment is the Berocca one - I love the music, and I can't stop watching the bloke in the suit! 100% commitment, he is really going for it! biggrin

The old shell one where the C130 refuels the F1 Ferrari brilliant.
The 205 GTi one where he's chased by a helicopter.
The cravendale ones 'the cows want it back' hehe

Nice but a complete rip off of this music vid - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv5zWaTEVkI&fea... - which was done in one take - awesome.

I always enjoyed the last Virgin Atlantic ad (25 years...) aswell as the John Smiths "Ave it" campaign!

Who watches TV adverts in this day and age anyway?

I hate it when people talk about TV ads as I don't have a clue what they're on about.

Yet you still choose to come on a thread titled 'adverts you actually enjoy?' to tell us all...
