The TV commercials in the 2000s were largely marked by repetitive, earworm jingles and songs, tongue-in-cheek, often ironic or absurdist humor, brightly saturated colors, and overall a high energy style remnant of the late ‘90s before it. They were a little edgy and a whole lot of memorable, often both pulling from pop culture and inspiring the zeitgeist. And many of them were weird — like, really weird — but that only made them that much more unforgettable, even with the passing of time and trends.

“Don’t you wanna?” For Millennials growing up in the early 2000s, the colorful Fantanas — Fanta’s sexy, fruit-themed quartet of spokesmodels-turned-dancers — presented a glamorous promise of refreshment and fun whenever they popped up on TV screens, typically partying in some snazzy, humid locale. “Wanna Fanta?” they asked, before bursting into the brand’s catchy, fast-paced tropical pop jingle. It always got stuck in my head. And honestly, yeah, it kinda made me wanna Fanta.

Dirty mouth? Clean it up. Orbit’s most iconic commercial of the era famously featured a charming British woman cheekily offering a seemingly potty-mouthed trio Orbit gum during an explosive argument. Though no actual curse words were used (this aired on TV, after all), impassioned, not-so-offensive exclamations such as “lint licker” and “What the French toast?” always made me feel a little naughty, while the effervescent British woman’s catchphrase — “Fabulous! For a good clean feeling, no matter what…” — never failed to stick.

Long before Charli XCX and hyperpop, there was the omnipresent Education Connection jingle-turned-meme.

The girl with the bob studying on her swivel chair had us all going on the “in-ter-net” to pursue our own higher education.

There was nothing more exciting than heading to Six Flags with your friends during summer break in the 2000s, and the company’s iconic commercials starring a goofy old man dancing spiritedly to Vengaboys’ 1998 Eurodance anthem perfectly captured that thrill. It was impossible to avoid Mr. Six — who wasn’t really an old guy, but rather a young professional choreographer wearing heavy prosthetics — while watching TV during the decade. The advertising mascot is so iconic that he was even parodied during an episode of Saturday Night Live in 2022, nearly two decades after he made his high-energy commercial debut.

Candy commercials were notably unhinged in the ’90s, but the 2000s weren’t any less wacky. In 2007, Starburst had us all glued to our screens when they debuted their absurd commercial featuring Little Lad.

It was weird, but it was unforgettable, which is probably why it went viral again in 2021.

They exchange glances. She seems nervous; a little too excited. He smirks and looks away. There’s a strange tension in the air before their parents walk in and Folgers’ iconic jingle plays.

Geico has long been known for their memorable advertising. It’s probably why their mascot, the Geico Gecko (his actual name is Martin, by the way), is one of the most famous commercial mascots.

Based on their “it’s so easy, a caveman could do it” slogan advertising their user-friendly online insurance quote system, one of the company’s funniest spots debuted in 2006. It saw a sophisticated, traveling caveman do a double-take after encountering the slogan on a poster at the airport. His indignation coupled with Röyksopp’s breezy “Remind Me” playing in the background was pure comedy.

In 2008, Subway’s “$5 Footlong” campaign introduced one of the modern era’s most famous and recognizable jingles alongside a fun series of commercials featuring various characters such as a gorilla, football referee, and generic movie star.

The deal was so ubiquitous with the brand that I was recently shocked to learn you definitely can’t order a $f 12-inch sandwich at the chain anymore.

Rotten Tomatoes Score: 57

John Woo followed upFace/Offwith another operatic thriller about a heroic government agent squaring off with his nefarious opposite. There’s even a repeated monologue about the legend of Bellerophon and Chimera, which are used here as the names for a super-virus and its antidote, and how every hero “requires” a villain, as if, in typical Woo fashion, both sides of the law are locked in an endless, symbiotic dance. This film’s Bellerophon and Chimera, like Face/Off’s Sean Archer and Castor Troy, also possess the ability to wear each others faces and trick people into thinking they are actually their mortal enemy.

That’sM:I-2. And today people are like, “Oh yeahFace/Off? Immortal ’90s classic.Mission: Impossible II? Laughable disaster!” I don’t get it! It might be the weakest Mission: Impossible, but in any other franchise it would be a solid, middle-of-the-pack entry.
