15 Best and Worst Super Bowl 51 Commercials
TVGuide

A lot of people watch the Super Bowl. In fact, it's one of the most watched things every year. How many people actually watch it for the football, though? The commercials are where it's at. Companies use their best creators and advertisers to create the best and most interactive, funny or heartfelt messages that people talk about for weeks. They use the best because it costs the most money to advertise during the Super Bowl because a ton of people watch it! Here are the best and worst commercials of 2017!

Best:

Ford Go Further | Ford


This commercial really didn’t have much to do with Fords, but it was really cool to see that everyone fails. Everyone struggles in life. It was the perfect blend of funny and adorable.

The Internet Wants You | GoDaddy Big Game Commercial


Combined examples of everything Internet in the past few years. From the ice bucket challenge, the controversy over “The Dress” and Rick Rolling, this commercial shows everything popular on the internet.

Honda CR-V 2017 Big Game Commercial - Yearbooks


This is the definition of glow up for these stars and celebrities. They CGI-ed yearbook photos of tons of stars talking about their futures and encouraging people to follow their dreams.

Super Bowl Baby Legends | Who’s Next? | Football is Family


I guess this commercial is promoting the NFL? It’s basically babies dressed up as different stars in NFL history. The kids are so cute.

Mr. Clean | New Super Bowl Ad | Cleaner of Your Dreams


Who knew you could be so attracted to an animated character? The high energy feel of this commercial makes it very likable. Dancing is always a good idea.

2017 Kia Niro | “Hero’s Journey” Starring Melissa McCarthy


This commercial pokes fun at all the people that are trying to do everything to save the world. While this may be good in theory, but not one person can do it all. But Melissa McCarthy makes this commercial hilarious.

The Walking Dead Season 7 "Football Season Is Over" Teaser Promo


Very simple, and it caught you off guard. Perfect for people sick of Sunday nights being consumed by football.

We Accept| Airbnb


This commercial quickly started trending as a “smack in the face to our president” by saying that we all belong, no matter who we love or where we’re from. A very simple commercial, with a very important message.

Not all the commercials were good though. Here are some of the misses...

Worst:

Brady Everyday | Tom Brady | Intel


Just because he won the Super Bowl and MVP, again, doesn't mean he needs to star in a commercial. Not everything his does is epic.

#UnlimitedMoves with Justin Bieber | T-Mobile Commercial


This commercial had promise, and with the kid’s dancing and sassy comment, it looked like a winner. Its downfall was when Justin Bieber decided to comment on his own dancing…

Febreze 2017 Super Bowl Commercial | Halftime #BathroomBreak


I don’t think I’ve ever heard of the Halftime bathroom break and neither had anyone else. I guess it was timely placed into the commercial lineup, but not well executed.

Persil Super Bowl Commercial 2017 Ft. Bill Nye


Good job to an unknown laundry detergent company getting a Superbowl commercial slot. This had potential, but the acting was so poor. It wasn’t funny-bad either, just plain bad. Good try, but no.

Wix.com Big Game First Spot with Jason Statham & Gal Gadot


Throwing celebrities into them doesn’t create a good commercial. Why does Jason Statham belong in a Wix commercial?

Turkish Airlines - Morgan Freeman Super Bowl Commercial (2017)


Again, Morgan Freeman? Turkish Airlines isn’t a relevant company, how did they get him? How much did that cost?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
