commercials kept it light and funny and Usher delivered an energetic halftime performance.

pop sensation Taylor Swift, the ad experts agreed that they didn’t see much Swift influence in the commercials — except maybe in the tone of the ads that are trying to catch viewers’ attention.

Ben Affleck starred in Dunkin’s first Super Bowl commercial, and the coffee company has released outtakes showing the star’s hilarious behind-the-scenes moments.In the commercial, Affleck works a Dunkin’ drive-thru window in Medford, Mass., serving donuts and coffee to unsuspected customers while sporting an employee uniform with a headset, black visor and an “America Runs on Dunkin’” shirt.The “Good Will Hunting” star shows off his silly side and his struggles working behind the register in the bloopers.The outtakes show Affleck, 50, rapidly reciting a very complicated breakfast order, causing the customer to question, “Are you alright this morning?” — unaware that on the other side of the headset is the “Argo” star.“I’m struggling,” Affleck says in one blooper, moments before he accidentally knocks over a coffee in a customer’s car.“I can’t make it function — malfunction!” the Academy Award winner exclaims. “Not as easy as it looks operating this apparatus.”The Massachusetts native even gets personal with the people in the drive-thru, asking one how his mother and father are doing before sending him off with his order.At one point, Affleck trolls a customer, telling him they’re out of both donuts and coffee and the only thing they got is water, to which the patron replies, “You’re s- -tting me.”“I’m trying to compensate with comedy for my ineptitude,” the actor admits.And if one outtake video wasn’t enough, Dunkin’ released an even further extended version of this particular scene where Affleck continues to tell this customer, “We got no sandwiches and no muffins.

Fox charged up to $7 million for a 30-second slotand big brands splashed the cash in the hopes of creating TV gold. But while a captivating commercial can be an invaluable investment, it’s hard to pull off given that around 100 million Americans are watching critically and closely.

Super Bowl broadcast wasn’t just about football — with many viewers tuning in to simply see the TV commercials that aired in between the on-field action. NBC expected 100 million Americans to watch the event, meaning they were able to charge close to $7 million for a 30-second ad slot.

in the 60-second commercial, which aired during the second quarter of Sunday evening’s game. “The Sopranos” showrunner David Chase directed the ambitious ad, which recreates the iconic opening of the original show and rewrites its famously ambiguous final episode.

One particular scene from “Legally Blonde 2” — in which star Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods rocked a very patriotic look — Jennifer Coolidge’s character Paulette enthusiastically remarks on her red-white-and-blue ensemble: “Oh my God — you look like the Fourth of July! Makes me want a hot dog real bad.”The line’s legacy lives on nearly two decades later, and Coolidge, 60, recently admitted that in its wake she was actually offered to do a hot dog ad — but it turned down. “It was a hot dog company that just did the meat hot dog, and I eat these amazing plant-based hot dogs,” the “White Lotus” star recently told People.

Super Bowl LVI ad takes the reins on all of our emotions.Titled “A Clydesdale’s Journey,” it’s the minute-long story of a wounded horse who finds the will to run in a tale more hard-hitting than a 12-pack of the brand’s lagers.Directed by Oscar winner Chloé Zhao of “Nomadland,” the horse is shown enduring a painful fall into barbed wire along with the crushing sadness the hurt equine felt while confined to its stable, unable to run.After what appeared to be a long and hard winter, the horse — with motivation from Budweiser’s iconic retriever dog — manages a heartfelt recovery to a slowed-down tune of the “Star-Spangled Banner” as its owners look on in awe as the Clydesdale takes off at full speed through their ranch.“This Super Bowl we have one message for America: In the home of the brave, down never means out,” the beer brand captioned the commercial.The inspirational tale that follows one of the brand’s beloved Clydesdales is meant to be a metaphor for what the nation has been enduring, said Daniel Blake, Budweiser’s vice president of marketing.“The Clydesdales are, for many people, a symbol of America, a symbol of hope, of strength, of resilience,” Blake told USA TODAY Sports of the “comeback story.”The move to pull on the nation’s heartstrings comes after Budweiser opted to not run any ads during last year’s Super Bowl, instead putting the money toward vaccine education.“For us to come back, with a symbol of America but also a story of injury, the road to recovery and ultimately, this triumph, I think is a really important message for the country to hear right now and one that really, only Budweiser can tell in this way,” Blake added, predicting the spot will hit people “kind of deep in their core.”The moving

pricey television advertising.The 30-second spot opens with a visibly upset employee storming into her boss’s office and declaring: “Miss Davis, Tommy just brought me into his office and whipped out his opinion.”“I didn’t just whip it out — she was into it,” Tommy blurts out in his defense. “Plus, I have a pretty big opinion.”The blond boss lady — a self-professed fan of “margaritas” — then interjects: “Tommy, not everyone in this office wants your opinion,” prompting Tommy to bring up a prior shared happy hour “when you begged me for my opinion?”The ad ends with a narrated voiceover: “We can’t protect your opinion — but we can protect your car.”Social-media justice warriors were swift in their condemnation: “Wow.
