I don't routinely watch commercials, but occasionally one comes on that has me in fits and giggles.

I actually saw some of these when we had the free preview of the NHL Center Ice package. I can't stand the Viagra commercials in the states! Funny thing - I work in TV and mentioned these spots to one of our sales reps. I was telling him these were the funniest things I had seen in a while.

The antiquing commercial won at the 2009 Cannes Lion Festival. That's the advertising equivalent to The Oscars.

I can't stand the Viagra or equivalent ads either. But they really hit on something with the concept in these commercials.
Actually, I just browsed that site. Three of the Viagra commercials have taken Gold at that festival in 2009.

Over the past 2 months, this one
has become sort of a "beloved commercial" here in the NY area

People on YouTube have been wracking their brains trying to figure out the female singer's name. I suspect it's some unknown hired by the NY Lottery.
Overall, it's more cute than funny but it's plain great. Very creative and great if you like rabbits.

I like the one for Deadly Women on Discovery ID channel, though they play it to death (pun intended). The show itself is very serious, but the commercial is kinda morbidly funny. It shows a group of housewives, sitting around one's dining room table. They ask each other what they've been up to; 1 says she made her cherry pie for Bill last weekened (you hear the voice over as you see the actress serving Bill the pie, then raising a rolling pin at his head behind him): "Was it yummy?" "To die for!"
Sometimes, the commercials are funnier than the shows! My fave was a few years ago, for Snickers candy. The catch line was soemthing regarding it being a quick snack. You see a line of people waiting to get into Heaven; St. Peter is questioning someone when someone at the back of the line says, "Hey! When's this line moving?!?" St. Peter opens a trap door in the clouds, the guy falls through, and St. Peter says, "It's movin' now!"
