If I hadn't verified it via this Youtube video, I would've assumed the commercial I just saw on TV was something I imagined in a bad dream.
 
But it's here, it's real, and it's sensational.  Dead

Oh. My. God. Shocked Cry  If anyone had the ability to videotape a nightmare, this would be it.  What ad exec, in their right mind, would use the MACARENA as a song to butcher in an ad?  I mean, the song came out in 1995, and it was banned at the time from many radio stations nationwide due to how annoying it was...yet the Snuggie Corporation felt it was appropriate for a brand new 2010 ad?! Unhappy  All I can say is that I'm happy that a much newer song wasn't butchered and ruined instead.  This one was already bastardized from the get-go.

And Dead, I love animals just like the next person, but I hate hate HATE when they show an animal (in this case, the dog) trying to join in the festivities by jumping all around when it was really trying to jump for a dog biscuit.  Angry No Snuggie, you aren't fooling anyone with that dog.  It does NOT want to dance with the other idiots!

When our troops capture members of the taliban, they should lock them in a cell wrap them in a snuggie and show them this commercial over and over and over and over and over....Wacko

A co-worker's status on facebook said that this commercial has to go and I don't blame him. Who thought of combining the macarena and snuggies?

I have to admit that the actual Macarena video is one of my favorite videos of all time (as in favorite worst videos of all time).  I haven't decided if this commercial, though, will achieve that dubious distinction.  Time will tell.

Well...
 
1.  I think the Taliban goes commando (in both senses of the word).
2.  The Snuggie is open in the back.
3.  This is how they pray:
     
 
 
So, no thanks.  That would be cruel to our troops.  LOL

I like that one too. Mainly because of that sexy, slinky chick with the blue (or was it pink?) hair.
 
She's hot & I want to do things to her.
 
 
As far as this ad is concerned.... When I saw the thread title, I was expecting the song to be that old Bow Wow Wow song "Baby, Oh No!", which I wish they would've used. THAT woulda been f**kin COOL!!!
 
 
"You're my Snuggie, Oh No!....
 
You make me lose my self control...
 
I'll go crazy, whoa-o-o....
 
If Snuggie oh no doesn't show..."
 
 
 
Or maybe they coulda done "I Want Snuggie!!"

For a trip down memory lane, and for the benefit of the young people who may not have been conscious yet when the song/video came out, here it is:
 
 
There's enough eye candy for everyone in this video.  For the guys, there's about a dozen beautiful international babes.  And for the women, there's...

I'd seriously like to know what magazine on Earth would have a Snuggie centerfold! Shocked  I tell you, it is one thing to prance around with a Snuggie on like you are an idiot, but it is just wrong to liken a Snuggie to something a guy would pin up on his bedroom wall (or hide with his Playboys!) LOL

Just be thankful he wasn't doing what a lot of guys do while they're oggling a centerfold..... 
 
 
.....and holding up the magazine with one hand... Shocked

Maybe it wasn't a centerfold after all. It was a full page "spread" of the new Octomom snuggie.

This commercial just should not be! The singing! The Snuggie Cult doing their ritual dance! The dog! The guy with the Snuggie centerfold was the worst part. I'll bet he'll be all aflutter when next month's issue comes out with the centerfold wearing a *gasp!* leopard print Snuggie! Whoa baby! Someone get him some Jergens and some Kleenex!

They might have to call it something else---perhaps "Seigguns" or "bathrobe".
