THE CONSERVATIVE HIPSTERS

The Globe has a piece on Canada's Top 10 TV Commericals of all time.

Pretty sad. They ain't no "Waaaasuuuup", that's for sure. I think I've seen better ones on "World's Funniest TV Commericals". And that show's lame as hell.

Here they are:

TOP 10 TELEVISION COMMERCIALS

1967 - Do you Eat the Red Ones Last? for Nestle Canada's Smarties
1973 - Mona Lisa for Cadbury Chocolate Canada Inc.'s Caramilk
1973 - Milk Moustache for Ontario Milk Marketing Board
1975 - The Road for A&W Food Services of Canada
1980 - Atlas Ketchup for H.J. Heinz Co.
1985 - It Tastes Awful. And It Works for W.K. Buckley Ltd.'s Buckley's Mixture
1990 - Bike Story for Canadian Tire Corp.
1996 - Stuck for Fruit of the Loom underwear
2001 - The Rant for Molson Canada's

I like "The Rant". Other than that, I guess if the criteria is longetivity, then some of them definitely deserve to be on the list. If its entertainment value, then the list needs some work.

But hey, at least they didn't put that stupid-ass "Want Milk" hip-hop or skater music video spot on the list. Then I would have really lost it.
