OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial

[Erin]

I happen to like the commercials. They where made for humor reasons only and to catch peoples attention. It obviously worked since soo many people are talking about it. I laughed so hard I almost cried. It is a different, crazy, one of a kind commercial, and I am hoping they make even more out going ones in the furture.

I think Quiznos took these off the air...

I haven't seen one on TV for almost a month now.

Hopefully they make a few more.

No they're still on but not as freqently. There is a third one that appeared a few weeks ago.

HA! I was here for sixty, I was here for seventy and now I'm here for the big eighty! Think we can get this to "90", "100", "150"!?

Ohh, ohh, they live near a nuke plant, and some radiation escapes, they mutate into larger versions . . .

George Kennedy plays the plant operator who accidentally releases the radiation.

Come on -- it looks seriously like the "riggers" to me -- pretty stuck in the old position.  If they aren't "dead" than whats with the strange foot position?  What rodent do you know that has it's feet all stuck on one side of their body and strategically placed close together -- HOW DO THEY WALK?  Dead is the only explanation to those questions

I have no idea what those things are, (some people say monkeys, I personally don't see it, orgerbils or hamsters). Either way, I have friggin' nightmares about those things. I can watch every single scary movie known to man, but I have never had a nightmare about anything I watched...until now. The Quizno dead monkey/hamster/gerbil is a sin against God himself and must be stopped. Before they run amok and start eating us.

My boyfriend just loves this commercial. He sings it all the time. Whatever they are, they have really caught his attention.

over the weekend.  Had a meatball sandwich.  The sandwich was pretty good, the prices comparable to Subway, and the store itself seemed nicer that Subway.

Wow - i go away for a couple of weeks and come back to 85 msg's for the quizno rats? c'mon!

[Irrational Exuberance]

Yayyyyy, new commercial according to the Quizno's web site, big joy is in my heart!  But I haven't seen it even though they have another commercial going for the same deal

I love this commercial!   I think the things' bodies are hamsters but where did they get those teeth...and the Napoleon hat!  I notice that the 'normal' Quizno commercial is shown on network. I've only seen this one on Comedy Central.
I would patronize Quizno's solely based on them having the guts to do this spot.

I LOVE that comercial!!! it is hilarious in a creepy way!  it also has a radio that i have memorized "we could be rats we could be gerbals but we look like singing roadkill!" *splat* its hilarious!! i love quiznos but it kinda creeps me out when i saw the rat/hamster/gerbal/road kill was singing in the oven CREEPY yet HILARIOUS
