The first television commercial was broadcasted in 1941. Ever since then they have been around for years. Some are funny, some are sad, and others are just simply boring. Of course commercial producers want to promote their product so they pick a show or channel that would have an abundance of viewers. There is not a better place to go for a lot of viewers than the Super Bowl.
In 2011, the Super Bowl was the most watched program to ever be shown on television. In 2011 alone, 111 million people sat down on Super Bowl Sunday to watch the Packers and the Steelers fight for the title of Super Bowl Champion 2011. 111 million viewers blew away the 106.5 viewers that had watched the Super Bowl in 2010.
The commercials were ready to be aired on February 4, 2012. They went on all night long. Some would blow people’s mind and others would walk away for a bathroom break or to get some food.
There were four commercials that stood out over all the others. They were the Chrysler Clint Eastwood Commercial, both of the Doritos commercials, and the LMFAO M&M’s commercial.
The Clint Eastwood commercial was very serious. It pulled in everyone’s attention really quickly. Chrysler knew what they wanted to show in the commercial and they got it. The commercial was a big hit and a lot of people really like it.
One of the Doritos commercials had a baby that was flung at a little boy and the baby stole the Doritos. It was very humors and made multiple people laugh. The other Doritos commercial had a dog and a lost cat. The dog kept giving his owner Doritos so he would say he didn’t see anything involving the cat. It was a big hit.
The last commercial was the M&M’s commercial. They had an M&M dance to LMFAO’s song "I’m sexy and I know it". It was a really funny commercial and numerous people really enjoyed it.
Overall the commercials of Super Bowl XLVI were pretty good. The company’s worked really hard on producing the commercials and it really shows.
