SUPER BOWL OF COMMERCIALS

Ramsey Seikaly

Los Angeles -- Whoever said television shows are a break between commercials was right on the money.  Even so called sponsored television programming has a plug of some sorts.  Mostly, however,  it is commercial television that takes the trophy for the most creative and innovative product pitch.  These are so good that you wonder sometimes whether you are watching just to catch a glimpse of your favorite ad instead of your favorite show.

Case in point.  The Super-Bowl commercial.  This is the pinnacle platform for a Madison Avenue Ad Agency, creating the right pitch and hook for their client.  If you make the 30 second cut on Super Bowl Sunday you just wrote your ticket on easy street until the next sports extravaganza.  Other than the World Series, the Olympics and the World Cup no other sporting event garners such a massive viewer response than the Super Bowl.  

So here is a compilation of some of the top Super Bowl spots as well as 2013's in honor of thee sporting event of the year (excluding the Soshi Winter Olympic Games) between the Seattle Sea Hawks and Denver Broncos at XLVIII Super Bowl.
