I think this might be one of the best commercials ever. It is definitely a Super Bowl quality commercial. However, I am not sure the target demographic it is going for.

You aren't sure about the demographic - Why?

Do women not like epic films all of a sudden? Don't they have a sense of humour?

Because I thought the intro was a video game commercial. Something like Sid Meiers Civilization VI. I figure most women would have stopped watching and walked out of the room/changed the channel before they get to the end.

This one (actually this is only one of several for the product) is doing the online facebook/forum circuit. It's viral. I think a LOT more women are seeing this online than on TV. Massively smart ad campaign.

I figured that SLO. I caught it on Hulu.com not tv.

I like both of those commercials.

Boy, they really blew the budget on that time machine in the second ad!

This is my favorite commercial, though it's been out for a long time and you've probably all seen it before, the Ford Ka and the kitten.

I watched the first one, and can't wait to check the others!
My favorite from about a year ago:
