Girl's Costume Warehouse

As much as I love that Mike's Marbleopolis commercial, this one captures the kooky local ad vibe even better. It's out of season, but I don't wanna wait seven months to share it.

Mobble Collums

A while back, I mentioned how much I love low-budget local commercials, and the SNL "Marble Column" parody commercial with Fred Armisen and Scarlett Johansson came up in the comments. Turns out it's called "Mike's Marbleopolis," and here it is. (There's probably a 15-second (genuine) ad in front of it.)

Two Blocks Away From Jay & Silent Bob's Secret Stash

I can't help it. I lurrrve local commercials, with their cheesy special effects, oddball sense of humor, and accents you don't hear anywhere else on TV. I saw a truncated (30-second) version of this one (for a somewhat local hobby shop) during tonight's Countdown and had to rewind it twice to make sure my eyes and ears weren't deceiving me. Glorious insanity.



She's holding the train right in front of her eyes! I can't get over that!
