Banana Joe Wins at the Westminster Dog Show
Banana Joe is a painfully cute black affenpinscher, a Dutch breed known for perfectly engineered fluffiness. He's been compared to an Ewok, a teddy bear and is being called a "monkey dog." At five-years-old, Joe is a veteran of shows like this, and his win at the Westminster Dog Show is his 86th (!) time achieving a Best in Show title.
The Best GIFs From the 2013 Grammy Awards
No event can be declared a success unless it is immediately followed by the mass production of memes and GIFs regarding said event. The Grammys this year look to have been dominated by Taylor Swift's unrestrained excitement (she cannot stop dancing), Justin Timberlake, Prince's swagger and the odd way Jay-Z seems to be presiding over the whole affair.
Prudential’s 2013 Super Bowl Commercial Charts Your Lifespan
The Prudential life insurance company offered a somewhat chilling look at the inevitability of age and mortality in their Super Bowl 2013 commercial. But fret not! While becoming old and infirm is unavoidable, Prudential can help you soften the blow by ensuring that you're not old, infirm and destitute.
Skechers’ 2013 GoRun 2 Super Bowl Commercial Teaches You to Outrun a Cheetah
Skechers' 2013 Super Bowl commercial for the GoRun 2 running shoes features an adrenalin rush-inducing chase: a gazelle flees from a cheetah, who in turn is run down by a man wearing Skechers' magic footwear.
Tracy Morgan is Mio (un)Fit In Hilarious Super Bowl 2013 Commercial
Mio Fit's Super Bowl commercial features Tracy Morgan advocating the American knack for change, a move that effectively makes the whole situation absurd. Also, we find Tracy to be an interesting choice--since it is in fact a "sports" drink, maybe they should've made some kind of nod towards athleticism other than stuffing the former Tracy Jordan into a tracksuit...
‘The Lone Ranger’ Commercial Rides Into Super Bowl 2013
A trailer for the long-awaited action Western 'The Lone Ranger' starring Armie Hammer, Johnny Depp and (no surprise here) Helena Bonham Carter aired during the Super Bowl.
This new take on the masked lawman is brought to us by the people responsible for 'The Pirates of the Caribbean' and it looks like Johnny Depp's Tonto might become just as iconic as his Jack Sparrow...
See the Power Go Out During Super Bowl XLVII
A power surge at the Superdome in New Orleans knocked out a number of the lights causing play to be disrupted (sabotage by the 49ers perhaps?). The delay is expected to be up to a half hour long. Let's hope the break doesn't mess with anyone's focus.
Will Doritos’ Killer Goat Win the 2013 Doritos Crash the Super Bowl Commercial Contest?
This contender in Doritos' Crash the Super Bowl commercial contest features a goat that just can't get enough of that nacho cheese taste.
Is Oreo Whisper Fight the Funniest Super Bowl 2013 Commercial?
Oreo's Super Bowl 2013 commercial features a "whisper fight" in a library that breaks out over whether the cream or the cookie is the best part of the glorious whole that is the Oreo. It's nice to see that even having such strong feelings on the issue, every single person involved is mindful of keeping it down in the library.
E-Trade Babies Are Back (Again) for a 2013 Super Bowl Commercial
E-Trade returns to Super Bowl 2013 with the now familiar E-Trade baby, who is apparently trapped in some sort of anomaly in the time continuum that prevents him from aging.
Watch the Taco Bell Ad That Was Banned for Upsetting Vegans
Taco Bell was forced to retract its anti-vegetable commercial for promoting its 12-pack of tacos. The ad opens with the narrator deriding vegetables, saying "Veggies on game day is like punting on fourth and one — it's a cop out."
Kate Upton Gets Soapy in Mercedes’ 2013 Super Bowl Commercial Teaser
Mercedes Benz has graced us with not one, but four teasers for their Super Bowl production. All we know is to expect something sinister, mysterious and hot enough to break dishes and ruin a little girl's ice cream, all set to the Rolling Stones' 'Sympathy For the Devil.' Oh, and a teaser featuring Kate Upton lets us know she'll be washing a car in slow motion. No explanation needed there, really.
