Top 10 TV Commercials of 2010
Since television first became available to Americans (circa 1947), people have been able to relax in the comfort of their own homes to watch a variety of programs – sitcoms, soap operas, sports, made-for-TV movies, variety shows, dramas, talk shows, games shows, reality shows ... well, you get the picture.

The one thing all of these programs have in common? Ugh! Commercials. But wait, hold the phone. Some aren't so bad and actually quite often serve a purpose. They use creative concepts to grab our attention, all while telling us why we should buy their car insurance, apply for their credit cards or watch their upcoming movies. Some commercials actually give us some comedy relief to go with our head cold or heartburn.

1. I like the Peggy one(s)
Now that I mainly do customer service I have this urge to answer the phone with "This is Peggy, than you for calling"

2. They forget the Snickers "Diva" ad! Still, great choices all
but they could have filled the entire list with GEICO commercials and I wouldn't quibble a bit.
