This year's mixed bag of Super Bowl commercials included some cute, funny ones and others that were baffling, bad or downright offensive. Seriously, how did the SalesGenie panda spot make it on TV at all? It's just wrong.

After a while, all of the lists of greatest Super Bowl commercials start to look the same — the Michael Jordan vs. Larry Bird "nothin' but net" ad, Apple's 1984 spot, etc. At least CBS is doing something (slightly) different this year.
