I just watch channel CBS and I get them fine.  Apparently anywhere east of Halifax gets them worry free.

Nobody I know ever knew there was an FCC regulation in place until you told me about it last year.

East of Halifax eh?  That doesn't leave a whole lot of prime Super Bowl commercial space in the great white north.   *pouts*

It's actually not a FCC regulation, but a CRTC regulation, Canada's version of the FCC.   But they make an excellent point, nobody would watch the thousand dollar canadian commercials on Global, when they could watch the million dollar commercials on CBS/FOX/ABC/etc.

For the Canadians, if you watch Sportsnet News now, they'll be replaying the best Super Bowl commercials of today. They used the farting horse one in the bumper.

I was watching the rebroadcast... and no, no great commercials. I did see the Donkey-"I wanna be a Clydesdale" commercial, and the Bud-Ref's Explanations ones, but otherwise, not much other than a couple of boring Nissan commercials.

i need to get a Caddi so i can break the speed of sound.

it's really funny how all the car commercials were of speeding, powersliding, and other bad things the DMV and police don't prefer you to do (but we do anyway, haha!).

OK... someone explain this to me.. why does ANYONE like the clydesdale one? It was dumb as P to the L to the O to the P

Recap:

I'm a donkey. I wanna be a clydesdale, because they are huge and awesome. I dress like a clydesdale, and try to walk like them. I get to to meet them. I say "heeehawwwwwnk" and now, i get to help pull the sled. Huh?

Dumb.

Another fun site to check out is Super Bowl Ads.com. They have results on commercials from the past six years, including poll results on which ones were the best.

All of the freakin' Cadillac commercials were TERRIBLE. Like that one advertising the new convertible with the three cars meeting at the intersection, flying towards each other surrounded by WATER? WTF? It's like they hired some French indy film director to make these. I say, good for them though. Ugly cars deserve horrible commercials so no one will buy them.

The only ones I really cared for at all were the AOL/Chopper commercials. No one's trying anymore.

I thought the farting horse one was the funniest, and half the people at the party I attended (myself included) shouted  "Beefareno!" in response.

Frankly, my favorite commercial was the IBM ad featuring Muhammad Ali.  My wife can attest to the fact that I had goosebumps.

I'm in favor of saying NO REPEATS on the superbowl. If it has EVER aired bfore, no go for the SB. buy two ad slots? make two ads. Don't play it again.

In Calgary you can get a US feed for all the major networks, so you get all the Super bowl commercials just fine
