JONATHAN'S BLOG: Top 10 Funny Super Bowl Commercials
Jonathan McKee Nielsen just released a blog featuring the 10 "best liked" Super Bowl commercials from the last five years. A fun watch!

Super Bowl commercials are always some of the best of the year, so these 10 were pretty fun to view... the best of the best. Interesting that hardly any of these "most liked" commercials dipped into the realm of racy or dirty (something I talked about last week in my blog about GoDaddy).

My favorite is definitely this one:
