The Super Bowl is consistently the most watched television event in America. Aside from the fact that football is awesomely entertaining, there’s the halftime show and the commercials. Ah, the wonderful commercials! Normally, people go out of their way to avoid them, but on that glorious Sunday each year, people look forward to seeing some of the best TV ads the year has to offer. We’ve got a little sneak peek for you of a few commercials to expect this Sunday while you’re munching on wings and nachos.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I used to love “Full House.” It was a staple in my TV lineup, and I’m often nostalgic for the TV shows from that era. Well, as many of you know, Dannon Oikos yogurt uses John Stamos (Uncle Jesse) as their spokesperson. So, in this cute ad, they decide to reunite him with former co-stars Bob Saget and Dave Coulier (Danny Tanner and Uncle Joey, respectively).
Remember all the hoopla about the Cheerios ad that featured an interracial couple and their daughter? Well, Cheerios decided to send a virtual “You Mad Bro?” with their new Super Bowl ad that features the same family … and they’re having another baby. Suck on that bigots!
Very few people can resist the cuteness of a puppy. Budweiser is banking on that logic with their newest Super Bowl ad. Budweiser has a history of being one of top contenders in the commercial game, so this one is sure to be another hit. I dare you to watch it and not say “Aww.”
This is actually one of my faves. It’s a bit on the long side, but very funny. Anna Kendrick proceeds to have a monologue about being “hot,” but not “beer girl hot,” railing on Newcastle for losing funding and generally being hilarious.
Terry Crews stars in a commercial for Toyota Highlander featuring The Muppets. When their bus breaks down and he offers to help, Terry gets caught up in a groovy Muppets tune.
I, for one, am a huge fan of “Ellen.” So I don’t need much convincing to watch her commercial. But in case you do, it’s a really cute ad featuring Ellen as Goldilocks and dancing intensely. Enjoy.
