    It's stuff like this that makes commercials tolerable to watch.

    Just saw this commercial on tv and laughed my ass off. I'm seriously happy that they let this air.

    You know, I think what made this so great was all the small bits of acting in there. The looks the guys in the audience got, the way the brunette smiled knowingly, the man with the blue balls...

    All those little touches made this fucking awesome.

    I thought the funniest part was the old lady in the audience clapping and mouthing, "Me too!" after the host says she "could play with these balls all day." And the old man's deflated balls, of course.

    Nice find. Axe may be a joke, but at least the people in charge don't take themselves too seriously.

    I can't believe I watched the whole thing o_O. Weird. And funny in a disturbing and sick sort of way.
    Can someone get the sale stats for this ... um ... product?

    Commercials like this are the reason I sometimes regret not watching TV. That was almost Old Spice Man/Dos Equis levels of epic.

    Alcohol companies have always been on the ball, and now bodycare product companies finally got the picture. Those dumbshit infographics that show the (supposed) percentage of germs that their product kills in comparison to other soaps were boring, and the fastest way to get a channel change. Old Spice could be slinging scented water, but their campaign is brilliant enough that I honestly feel guilty for not buying their products - since they give enough of a damn to catch my attention.

    AXE has always had fairly interesting commercials, but this was clearly a step up response to Old Spice. I wouldn't be surprised if those two women (who're legitimately hot, btw) had a flood of YouTube viral videos in the works.

    Dunno who the host-chick is, but the "ex-tennis phenom" is Jaime Pressly, a pretty talented actress. And she has a great ass.

    Actually Blaise, didn't Herbel Essence start this body-care fad with the women moaning in the shower like two decades ago?

    I thought that was her. And yes, her ass is OM NOM NOM NOM NOMMY.

    Lol, I dunno about two decades ago, but that's true. Though I'd argue that there's was nothing about those commercials that appealed to both genders, despite the product's obvious demographic, which is why they got kinda stale after a while. You can only see but so many different chicks moaning, and I don't know many guys that would be caught pretending to O-face while showering.

    Everything in that Axe commercial I could see men and women talking about. They also had the fairly recent "Bow chicka wah wah" campaign, which was hella funny as well. Old Spice has always had characters worth quoting (Terry Crews, Bruce Campbell), but the single-take commercial followed by YouTube videos will set the bar. I can't see Axe not going the same route with this.

    (Orrrrr maybe I'm just hoping it gets more Jaime-Pressly-massaging-balls screentime.)

    You forgot LL Cool J. Now look at me - Nice!
    God, I had to watch the Old Spice Swagger and Dr. Pepper Cherry commercials so many times during the MLG breaks, they somehow even became funny at 4 AM.
