I love Charles Barkley, and just seeing him goof around cracks me up. The Pepsi Max commercial not only wasn't funny. It actually made me mad. I don't know who thought it up, but stealing from SNL is pretty lame to begin with. Stealing from an SNL skit that's at least 10 years old (and of questionable quality to begin with) is just desperate. Geez. My favorite was the “Hey Chuck” commercial.

Pepsi Max: What is Love? — Wasn’t funny, and the “punchline” was weak." I agree that the idea was weak, but somewhere in the execution, it got funny. If you could tune out that annoying song, the bit with Joe Buck nodding off on Aikman, and then Aikman's face when Buck starts with the head bop -- hoowee. That's priceless. LOVED the talking stain. (Probably because I could stain my shirt eating a slice of white bread...) “2. Pepsi Max: What is Love? — Wasn’t funny, and the “punchline” was weak.”
