Nichole’s Superbowl ad scorecard

  • House made of beer: Not funny.
  • Betty White playing football: Mildly funny. I like Betty White.
  • Doritos, anti-barking collar: Not funny, with a streak of meanness.
  • “Robin Hood”: Not funny. But I don’t suppose it was supposed to be. I love the Robin Hood story, but I’m not sure I’m going to watch this one. Russell Crowe is on my boycott list. Rockford says, “Kinda want to see that. Kinda.”
  • Doritos, “Keep your hands off my mama”: Not funny.
  • Bud Light asteroid: Not funny.
  • “NCIS” head slap: Amusing, even though I’ve ever watched the show.
  • “Simpsons” Coke ad: I’ve always loved Mr. Burns, and his Warhol was lovely. Splendid ad.
  • Go Daddy, Danica massage: These ads annoy me greatly.
  • Doritos, funeral: Ridiculous.
  • Bud Light, voice modulator thing: Made me laugh a little. That T-Pain is a hoot.
  • Monster.com, fiddling beaver: Funnyish, I guess.
  • “The Wolfman”: I so will not be watching that.
  • Bridgestone, killer whale: Ha.
  • Shape-ups from Sketchers: My mom dated a guy who carried around a prototype for a shoe he had invented that was supposed to do something like Shape-ups. I wonder if he’s the force behind these.
  • Cars.com genius kid: Seemed to be an attempt to emulate Wes Anderson, but not very successfully.
  • I don’t know how much longer I’m going to keep this up. I’m pretty sure I know how much longer you’d like me to keep it up, though. Don’t worry. I’ll lose steam and interest soon.
