Correct me if I’m wrong, but this ad from 1982 was aired right around that time that AIDS (the disease) was becoming a global crisis.  I’m not sure how they didn’t see this as the “worst possible name for a diet pill,” at the time.  That’s like naming a tobacco product canzer.

It’s Game Time, Baby

This brilliant commercial used to run between every commercial break during the 2007 NBA playoffs. This guy knows how to save the day, and save his friend’s ass, by bringing the hors d’oeuvres to the party, and boy does he bring it big time with the double quarter pounder (with cheese). He uses common sense: Who doesn’t want to eat cheeseburgers whilst watching the big game? After that, they had the best time at his party.

MaaacDonald’s knows how to connect with America’s young adults.

It’s game time, baby, come on now.

With cheese.
