Planet of the Commercials

The Nostalgia Critic has been under a lot of controversy lately since the whole change the channel thing last year and his recently panned review of "The Wall". But I put that all aside to see his latest video on the commercials and well, I liked it. I laughed a lot more than I'd like to admit which proves that despite all odds, there's still SOME good writing going on behind the scenes (or something).

If Critic did more things like this where he simply "reacts" to the media he's reviewing in his own way, I'd probably be watching him more often than I currently do. If you aren't dissuaded by all the controversy, I can certainly recommend this video. It was certainly funny at many points.

I always look forward to watching Critic's commercial specials every November as they're very funny, and this year's special was no exception. I always get a kick out of how he reacts to some of the more disturbing ones, and he had some good ones to react to this year. The intimidating Panda Cheese ads, that creepy Gainomax Ring monkey and of course that messed up Irish speeding PSA towards the end. I really agree with what he had to say about that last one and I feel bad for any kid that happened to see that one on TV. And that recurring gag with the Flintstones Vitamins composer was pure gold, especially when we find out who he really was at the end. (Plus, me not knowing who the guy was at the time just benefits the gag.)

Overall, Planet Of The Commercials was very funny, but one question remains. WHO'S GONNA BE THE NEW IRELAND?!
