25 TV Commercial Characters We’ll Never Forget

A look at some of the greatest characters to spawn from television commercials.

     Television commercials, like it or not, have become as much a part of our popular culture as the shows they split into segments.  The Super Bowl is the biggest televised spectacle in the world year after year, and it hasn’t been just about the football game in decades.  companies shell out obscene ammounts of money to spend 30 seconds trying to leave an indelible mark on our subconscious minds in the name of their product.

     Invariably, the characters from these spots will, at times, take on a life of their own.  At times, they become cultural icons in their own right;  characters that we, the consumer, still remember years later.  Let’s take a trip back, and look at some of the characters who have etched themselves into our memories over the years…
