What happened to Hershel Gelber? Has he been replaced with the two dudes that keep popping up on the screen in between play?

I seriously miss the Filet-o-fish and I know the guys love the girls with the side boobs and you deserve them after a long day at work.

My new favorite is the Hockey video game.."Oh, the good 'ole hockey game...." The whole family sings it...we're dorks.

Nothing too terribly annoying though...yet.

I miss veinsveinsveins and excessive sweating. Well, the commercials, not the condition.

I hated the Hershel Gelber commercials. I'm very pleased that they're gone.

Hockey Night in Buffalo

Every now and again those still come on. I can hear Maria Genero from a mile away.

I miss The Most Interesting Man In The World commercials for Dos Equis already! Those were sheer brilliance!

I thought Celino and/or Barnes was in Jail or had been kicked off the Bar....

Nah, Cellino was just suspended temporarily.

Celino was dis-barred for a time for lending money to clients and taking it back from their legal awards I believe. He was essentially "suspended" for a time in NY state, then allowed to practice law again after the time period was up. Just going by what my parents told me because all this happened while I was living in PDX.

BTW, those "two dudes who keep popping up on the screen" were littering the airwaves with ads long before I had ever even heard the name Hershel Gelber. The skylines of WNY have long been filled with images of Celino and Barnes' faces and a single word:

INJURED?

Can you believe they actually changed their number?! The jingle is RUINED!

Well, since I don't live in Buffalo, I have been denied the privilege of the billboards.

However...

has Billy Fuccillo made his way to the Buffalo car lots and your TVs? That, I'm afraid, is a product of the North Country and I humbly apologize for his presence on the networks of Western NY. I know he's made his way to Rochester...its only a matter of time before you get the HUUUUUUJYA! commercials. I've learned to tune him out.

Rob, I totally forgot the Saturday biting fish. I loved them. But I recall getting annoyed by around April or so...

The way I hear it, his cocaine habit is just as huge as his dealer chain's business

we have ads here in metro detroit for a family of lawyers, the bernstein family. maybe you got them out there, i dont know. anyways, the ad is of the whole family, and one of his kids is blind, i guess. this is the family portrate they keep showing through out the commercial is this:



WHERE IS HE LOOKIN?!

anyways, its large source of comedy for us michiganders.

the ad for HSBC where the lady claims it took her three months to love her child... thats terrible.

We went there to look at used minivans a few years ago. They guy going over our finances had a REALLY lazy eye...Igor-like. We left and I asked my husband, "Was he looking at me or you?"

Those commercials, though...they are just intolerable. I think he was sick for a while, though, because the other lounge-lizard looking guy was doing the ads by himself.

Now THAT is classic! LOL

The one with the baby...I remember watching Robie talking in between periods and the jumbotron was in the shot behind him. That commercial was on and the way is was set up, that baby just kept popping up next to Robie with that goofy look on his face...then he'd go away, then he'd be back again...I almost wet my pants. It was funny.

Definitely a Classic



But the best, The Labatts bear commercials.

Once when I was in the 10th grade, my friend Ryan gave his number to this super-stupid annoying girl (but it was actually Cellino and Barnes's number). She didn't realize that it wasn't really his phone number until two hours later when somebody TOLD her that it wasn't really Ryan's number. She was like, "oh I thought there was something funny about it". But I think she still called anyway to make sure.
