Worst Super Bowl commercials 2025

 

    Some Super Bowl commercials are considered memorable, but why does this year's batch feel forgettable to me? The best thing was the Eagles winning the Super Bowl. I can't believe that even happened and I'm happy about that more than these commercials. I'll give you the worst bunch before I pick one that I liked.

Pringles- I don't understand Pringles ads these days. I stopped eating those chips, although sometimes I do get a little craving, and I say little for the reason that I think other chips are tastier. This ad had Nick Offerman losing his mustache. He ain't the only one. Andy Reid, LeBron James and a few others as someone places their mouth into a pringles and hollers. I don't get it. How does this sell chips. It freaked me out.

Bud Light- I'm not a beer drinker, but I think most soda and beer companies go heavy with their super bowl ads. This one had Post Malone, Shane Gills and Payton Manning getting everyone to a backyard barbecue to make it the best as they serve bud light. I don't even give a shit anymore with ads that have too many celebrity endorsements. Good for them I guess, but didn't give a shit. 

HexGlad Cookware- I love Gordon Ramsay. He shows off some space age pan to some people, mostly aliens, and it was...fine. Not great, but I love Gordon and even he thinks Pete Davidson as an alien is a little...strange. Although, then again, he could be. I never use the products, so I would say...hit and miss. This commercial was not horrible, but forgettable.

Hellmann's- Ever seen the movie: When Harry Met Sally, well, I guess they wanted to relive the orgasm at the diner scene using Hellmann's mayonnaise. Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal are in this commercial reliving the diner experience. Having Hellmann's mayo in her sandwich. The you-know-what happens and well.... I won't have what she's having.

Totino's- I'll put this in the not bad category. Ever seen E.T.? I have...this pizza roll commercial has this alienlike creature hang out with Tim Robbins, Sam Richardson and a few kids as he starts to go home. The doors close...on him and he dies. The kids scream bloody murder as one of the father's says, "That's what happens." Or something like that. How does this show off the pizza roll? I felt like I watched Mac and Me with no tragedy.

Dunkin- Dunkin Donuts or whatever you wanna call it, has been pulling Ben Affleck into their commercials. He has his brother, Casey as well as few other people, mostly Bostonians as they're called into their ads. Jay and Silent Bob make an appearance. What do I think about this ad?  Stupid. I don't even drink coffee.

Somewhat Honorable mentions: 

  Stella Artois- I'm guessing this is a drink commercial that has Matt Damon and David Beckham in it that think they're long-lost brothers. LOL. How does this promote the drink? I guess I'm putting it in this category because it wasn't bad. Not good either; I like Matt Damon and well I don't drink this drink. Guessing it's alcohol. I feel this commercial was fine.

  Budweiser- I thought this commercial was one of my favorites. I never drank beer. Never will, but just like Bud Light and all the other ads, Budweiser is one of the tops in beer sales when it comes to Super Bowl commercials. This one had a tiny Clydesdale using all his might to deliver one small kegger of beer to his master who dropped it without realizing it. Bringing it all the way to him. Not a bad ad at all. One of my favorites.

    

Michelob Ultra- Another beer ad that I thought was pretty good. Two actors from the Beetlejuice movie, Catherine O'Hara and Willem DeFoe decide to play pickleball with random strangers for the Michelob beer. They win and challenge others. They would lose as well. I never knew both of them were good at pickleball. Then again, it is a beer ad, and I bet they wanted the beer pretty badly.

Booking.com- Booking. com is a site to find places to book. Like Airbnb, but stranger. I don't know there are so many sites now to blook places it's getting out of hand. This one has the Muppets. It's...passible. I love the Muppets, well...I used to. They're still around and in this ad, they try to find a place to stay. Miss Piggy all draped in pink, Kermit and Fozzie finding a place. Gonzo on a rocket. All that. This is fine, I just don't use that site at all.

Little Caesars- The pizzeria that's trying to be Dominos or Pizza Hut, this ad has Eugene Levy with his eyebrows all happy for eating a small bite-size pizza puff they have in Little Caesars. Not as creepy as the Pringles one, this was ok. I love Eugene Levy and well...the pizza place is ok. I haven't had it in years. Would I try it because of this ad? Do I fear my eyebrows will do that? We'll see, but mostly no.

THE ONE TO GIVE YOU NIGHTMARES:

Mountain Dew- First off... Seal is a seal. Well, they used computers to digitally place his face on a seal. He sings 'Kiss from a Lime' from his original song, 'kiss from a rose' He tries to open a Mountain Dew with a twist of lime, but he's a fuckin' seal. I don't think it'll open. It also had...I think Jason Mamoma or an impersonator driving a boat and everyone enjoying the Mountain Dew in question. My eyes almost bled after seeing that. I would not try the product after seeing that.

   There were so many ads. And yet, why did they not feel special this year? Maybe I was more focused on the game, or maybe I don't know I just felt they weren't as special as the rest. Glen Powell driving a Ram truck, Bill Murry in a Yahoo ad, Shaboozy eating Nerds and many more. Even Bad Bunny, Michael Shannon and Aubrey Plaza eating Ritz wasn't that popular. These ads were trying to get their product out the door and into people's homes. That's what all ads do. This year....it might have for some people, but not for me. I was happy for the Philadelphia Eagles winning the Super Bowl this year.
