So far not overwhelmed with the commercials.
Got to say I am very proud of my city!

I agree about the commercials. Lady Gaga was entertaining though. Pretty great show. And I did like the Genius commercial with "Einstein" playing the violin.

I liked the pee wee football commercial with Cam Newton. I think it was a Buick commercial.

That was a good one. Overall, I found the commercials disappointing this year. Not as much fun or funny and not as many exceptionally good ones.
Though I will say again that Lady Gaga gave a great show at halftime. Spectacular stunts and staging and she actually sang!

I'm wondering if a lot of companies didn't want to spend the money this year.
I miss the Clysdales. I wish they would bring them back.

BTW ... the Airblades used in Lady Gaga's show were tossed by Houston based Cypress Independent World Colorguard. Being an old band/guard geek mom, I thought that was really cool.

Highlight for me was once again not watching the halftime show. None of those lead "artists" and usually a hollywood hypocrite will ever interest me.

I hope I don't get booed out of the thread for this. The commercial that I thought blow all of these away was during the puppy bowl on Animal Planet channel.

It's the third one down called windshield wiper. The other 4 are great too--I liked this one the best because I laughed the hardest.

Makes sense. The dogs in the Subaru commercials are new for sure---I watched them last night during the puppy bowl.

I was going to mention the Airblades too. But FSQ beat me to it. Loved seeing the Marching Arts represented so well. And kudos to Lady Gaga and her crew for recognizing the talent and hard work that goes into it!
I originally planned to cook my dinner through halftime. Luckily, I was detained and ended up really enjoying her show.

I watched Lady Gag's press conference when she arrived here. I had been a sort of fan - liked her music, thought she was crazy! LOL But after watching the press conference, i became a fan. She was so well spoken, so kind to everyone who asked questions and you could tell she made an effort to get to know Houston because of some of the comments she made. Simone Biles asked a question and after the answer, Gaga says 'btw...i just wanted to say how much I admire all the work you do for foster kids'. It was just a lovely excnahge.

It can be hard to tell with celebrities but I agree that she seems to be a nice person who makes a real effort to care about people and her fans.
