I was expecting a Gilbert Arenas commercial. Huge disappointment.

I'm in Chicago and it's driving me nuts...i bet it can be linked to the isiah situation

So not only do I have to hear this commercial constantly, but now I have to see it on the first page of the Knicks board. Good job, how much did Toyota pay you?

The Knicks franchise has been saved by giving Isiah Thomas _____ responsibility.

This is one of the most annoying commercials ever made by man. Every time I hear it I scramble to change the channel. WTF were they thinking?

I don't know -- this one is certainly plenty annoying, but I think Mazda's "zoom zoom" campaign is still king, if only for the fact that it's been going for like 5 years now.

They want it to annoy you so it gets stuck in your head. So, they were actually thinking damn well.

I think the cablevision Spanish cable commercial is just as bad
In The Knick of Time/Knickal for your thoughts.

THIS... Thank god they dont show it often or at all anymore but over the summer, that damn commercial was on every time. In every channel... you could not escape it. It was like a virus...

That James Dolan sure has a way of making god awful commercials. Because then the folks at cablevision gave us THIS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yEVpfOTXWU which was even WORSE [if thats even possible] with the old lady dancing around with a muffin in her hand.

And now we're getting puppets. F*ck you James Dolan. F*ck you.

I love that song, even though the commercial doesn't use the original.
I was at a club once in the West Village, I can't remember the name, it was huge and it was on like 4th Street a block off Sixth Ave.
Anyway, the Fixx just happened to be playing a reunion show there and they were great.
