According to the USA Today Ad Meter, here were the Top 3 "best" ads from the Super Bowl, with their average ratings attached:

1. Hyundai: "First Date" (6.9/10)
2. Heinz "Weiner Stampede" (6.63/10)
3. Dortios: "Ultrasound" (6.6/10)

And now the worst:

1. Valeant: "Jublia" (3.22/10)
2. Valeant: "Xifaxin" (3.3/10)
3. Persil ProClean: "The Professional" (3.32/10)

So, now I want to ask, what were your favorite and least favorite commercials from Super Bowl 50? My favorites were the Hyundai ad mentioned above, and the T-Mobile Steve Harvey ad. For the worst, the drug commercials obviously, and the Puppymonkeybaby abomination.

Here were the full Ad Meter results: http://admeter.usatoday.com/results/2016

all the ads about people banging and having kids 9 months after the superbowl were bad

All the "Football is family" ones were pretty bad too. Why do you need to advertise yourself? During your playoff championship? Weird.

monkey puppy baby was abhorrent. the "3 coolest things in one" - yeah what 25-35 year old dude doesn't want a baby around with a diaper, ugh

Walken was OK

Drake (T-Mobile), Shock Top, and Steve Harvey (T-Mobile) were the best imo. Kevin Hart's one was decent - I can take him in small doses, but too much and he gets annoying.

Can't believe Doritos paid $5MM to advertise the baby one, their dog one was much better. They had all year to think about it and the baby one was just dumb.
