Does anyone else miss those innocent days before YouTube? Back when we had to wait for the actual Super Bowl to watch our beloved Super Bowl commercials?
Nowadays, there’s pretty much no reason whatsoever to watch the game.
Let’s take a look at the commercials, in alphabetical order by automaker.

When you look at yearbooks of people who graduated before you they still look older than you even when you're in your 40s or 50s. And Ford didn't help that cat get the box off it's head. #fail
No interest in watching. Think I'll instead go into the garage and work on my Jeep.
I'll probably watch some of the game, but once "Mercy Street", "Victoria" and "Six Wives of Henry the Eighth" come on I'm switching over to PBS. Since The Cheaters are playing (and the Steelers aren't) I have absolutely no interest in what happens on the field Enjoyed the Kia ad, always get a giggle when you can have fun with political correctness. Peter Fonda and Mercedes got a good laugh out of me - it's more accurate than you'd think. Otherwise, meh. Nothing even comes close to Audi's "Starman" ad from last year's Super Bowl. Which I consider one of the two or three greatest car commercials ever done.
In part because I'm almost 60 years old I too hate how Buick sh.ts all over and denigrates their older cars. God forbid anything is marketed for someone other than Taylor Swift or Beyoncé fans.
