Yes, it’s yet another “Is that (fill in name of actor) in a (fill in brand name) commercial?” post. I can’t help it if every C-list actor out there is trying to cash in by becoming a corporate whore. I would do the same!

Anyway, actress Sherri Saum, who I know as the devious Holland in Gossip Girl (the woman who lives downstairs from Lily and pretended to have an affair with Rufus), is the new face of Kohl’s. I don’t know if my first choice for spokesperson would be a woman who, at least in this role, is synonymous with being a bitchy skank. But why not? Even slutty downstairs neighbors need someplace to shop. Kohl’s: The Homewrecker Store.

P.S. I don’t know what the YouTube video poster was smoking when they thought that was Flo from the Progressive ads opposite Sherri.

As a major Lost fan, I was shocked to see what looked like Dr. Pierre Chang (aka actor François Chau), the mysterious Dharma Initiative video narrator and father of Miles, starring in a commercial for Bud Light. He’s still playing a scientist with that John O’Hurley-ish dry wit, so it’s even more Lost-seeming.

If you’re like me, you’re counting the weeks until HBO’s True Blood returns from its hiatus, and these teasing posters don’t make the wait any easier! You can click on the images below to go to each poster’s merchandise store page, if you’re so inclined.

I have been trying to track down this commercial for a while, and success is finally mine! Okay, it was a pretty stupid ad to begin with, but I still feel a sense of satisfaction in having achieved my goal. Presenting….the Spongetech SpongeBob Sponge.

Stephen Colbert presented a brilliant imitation ad the other day on his fine comedy news show, The Colbert Report. He was complaining about the cool, youthful approach Miracle Whip is using in their commercials of late, and he made his own awesome version, entitled “The Mayolution Will Not Be Televised.”

This is the original Miracle Whip ad in question. It’s pretty dumb. The ad slogan, “Don’t be so mayo,” also sounds suspiciously like a ripoff of Baskin-Robbins’ “Don’t be so vanilla” campaign, which I discussed a while back.

I like Stephen’s version better.

The website of the new Comedy Central series “Secret Girlfriend” says that the show is for single dudes in their early- to mid-20s, but from the look of these promos, they really mean 14 year old boys. I mean, pitching a tent? A cat and a rooster? Plus, they’re confusing as all hell. Is this a sketch comedy show, a sitcom, or MANswers-like infotainment? What is it???

Anyway, you can check out all of the punbearable clips at the official website, but here are just a couple to get you hot and bothered (dammit, now they’ve gotten to me too).
