These 11 Super Bowl LIX Commercials Should Just Be TV Shows
From Glen Powell as Goldilocks to Harrison Ford as America's dad, these 30-second spots need to be series

Super Bowl airtime doesnât come cheap. In fact, this year companies spent $8 million for 30 seconds of screen time at a Super Bowl most people will only remember for Kendrick Lamarâs unprecedented rap beef victory lap. There were commercials about Meg Ryan having orgasms at a restaurant with Billy Crystal (a la When Harry Met Sally), Gordon Ramsay and Pete Davidson hanging with alien cookware, and Post Malone drinking beer while acting like...Post Malone. My argument is: If brands are willing to spend an NFL playerâs salary on a blink-and-youâll-miss-it commercial, then why not fork over $40 million more and produce some high quality TV?
From Matthew McConaughey spouting âfoodballâ-related conspiracy theories to Michael Shannon and Aubrey Plaza being unimpressed by everything in life, here are the 11 Super Bowl LIX commercials that need to become TV shows.
Ram Trucks Super Bowl commercial with Glen Powell
Ram Trucks | 2025 Big Game | Goldilocks and the Three Trucks feat. Glen Powell | :60You could put Glen Powell in a jet (Top Gun: Maverick), the path of a tornado (Twisters), or a lethal relationship (Hit Man), and heâs going to make you want to watch all of it. So, him donning a blonde wig as the most adrenaline-fueled version of Goldilocks ever in the Ram Trucks Super Bowl commercial was a thrill ride I didnât want to end. What if he had a lighthearted but high-stakes anthology series where heâs a dad trying to connect with the children he has in the commercial by retelling classic childrenâs stories with him as the action hero? If heâs dodging dragons and riding over volcanoes as Goldilocks, you could easily fill 15 episodes of him saving Hansel and Gretel from that cannibalistic old witch with an AK-47, or dressing up as one of the three little pigs to interrogate the captured wolf in order to find out the location of his fellow wolves so they can exact revenge. CBS, put this show on after Tracker.
RITZ commercial with Michael Shannon, Bad Bunny, and Aubrey Plaza
A smile in the RITZ Salty Club? Not happening.Michael Shannon and Aubrey Plaza are a match made in sarcastic heaven as they try to stop delicious RITZ crackers from breaking their veneer of perpetual dissatisfaction. While the concept gets a couple of chuckles for the adâs 31 seconds, Iâd love to see Plaza and Shannon in a TV series where they realize life is too short to hate everything, so they employ Bad Bunny to try to introduce them to things to make them happy, and despite his best efforts, he fails more often than he succeeds. Imagine Shannon and Plazaâs stone-faced reactions to skydiving, an ayahuasca retreat, and front row seats at a Bad Bunny concert. Cut the check, RITZ.
Jeep commercial with Harrison Ford
JeepÂź | Big Game | Harrison Ford x Jeep | Ownerâs ManualWhen Harrison Ford talks, I listen. This Jeep Super Bowl commercial was simply 120 seconds of Ford exuding enough captivating cool to be able to speak to America about understanding the cost of freedom like heâs our father. Honestly, thatâs the show. Ford living on a farm, riding trucks, and looking directly into our souls every episode as he explains life lessons about the benefits of taking the road less traveled, why we pay taxes, and how to cook eggs when you only have a chicken and sunlight in the woods. Think of it like Mr. Rogersâ Neighborhood if it was in the Yellowstone universe.
Hellmannâs commercial with Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal
When Sally Met Hellmannâs :30 - Super Bowl Commercial 2025Nostalgia is always in style, especially when it involves a sequel to one of the greatest romantic comedies of all time. This Super Bowl LIX commercial revisited When Harry Met Sallyâs iconic scene in which Sally (Meg Ryan) proves to Harry (Billy Crystal) that men canât tell when women are faking orgasms by imitating an orgasm so convincingly in a restaurant full of people that someone famously says, âIâll have what sheâs having.â The only difference is this time, it appears Hellmannâs mayonnaise is actually that pleasurable. The 1989 classic ends with the pair getting married. If, 36 years later, theyâve gotten to the point where some store-bought mayonnaise is the highlight of their night, there could be comedic gold in uncovering the ways this longtime couple tries to keep things spicy, even if itâs just arguing over condiments.
HexClad commercial with Gordon Ramsay and Pete Davidson
âUnidentified Frying Objectâ | HexClad Super Bowl (Full Commercial)People often wonder what they would say or do if they ever met aliens. This HexClad commercial proposes the idea that Gordon Ramsay would be introduced to out-of-this-world cookware, some of which heâs already used. This could be a really limited series (Iâm talking four episodes, tops) of Ramsay berating alien chefs who cook intergalactic meals heâs never heard of but can nevertheless judge because his taste is the best in the universe. Unfortunately, with Pete Davidson as the alien ambassador, something is surely going to blow up in Ramsayâs face.
Uber Eats commercial with Matthew McConaughey
A Century of Cravsings - Extended Cut | Uber EatsA good mockumentary will always make for good TV. The Uber Eats commercial stars Matthew McConaughey as an executive revealing all the ways in which football is a âconspiracy to make us hungry.â Only, plot twist: itâs actually about McConaughey playing himself and pitching Greta Gerwig on a movie about this conspiracy. A movie with McConaughey acting as a zany version of himself, pursuing the making of this passion project and going to great lengths to break down this NFL conspiracy, could be a comedy hit. As ridiculous as some of the claims are (Football being played on Sundays because of ice cream sundaes?), it would be interesting to see what new and wacky coincidences they can come up with while using McConaugheyâs hypnotic charm to make them seem somewhat real. Honestly, why else would the Green Bay Packersâ fanbase be known as Cheese Heads?
Bud Light ad with Post Malone and Shane Gillis
2025 BUD LIGHT SUPER BOWL COMMERCIAL | BIG MEN ON CUL-DE-SAC | EASY TO DRINK, EASY TO ENJOY :60Post Malone and irreverent comedian Shane Gillis being drunk and disorderly troublemakers in a cul-de-sac is a funny enough premise for a Bud Light Super Bowl commerical and a Workaholics-style raunchy comedy. Can you imagine Post Malone day-drinking and playing acoustic versions of Kendrick Lamarâs âNot Like Usâ while Peyton Manning, living next door, is trying to enjoy the silence of retirement? Add in Shane Gills teaching the neighborhood kids how to safely do a keg stand, and youâve got three seasons of an HBO series.
Booking.com commercial with Muppets
Get your stay ridiculously right â Booking.com 2025 Big Game AdI wouldnât say Booking.comâs Muppet-filled Super Bowl LIX commercial was the best of the night, but itâs probably the most TV-series-ready of them all. The Muppets bouncing around the world trying to find the right vacation spot is cool for a 30-second commercial, but it really makes me want a White Lotus-style comedy. Kermit and Miss Piggy convincing the rest of the gang to spend their summer at an all-inclusive resort, only to find out thereâs some shady activities happening right under their noses, is must-see TV. If Bert and Ernieâs Great Adventures can get 52 episodes, The Muppets: White Lotus can get at least enough for a summer.
Instacart commercial with brand mascots
âWeâre Hereâ Big Game Spot I InstacartSure, Instacart gathered the mascots of some of the most popular consumer brands in the world to entice people watching the Super Bowl to get their groceries from them. What they unintentionally did was show us what a cross between Toy Story and Night at the Museum could look like. The same excitement you get from seeing how characters from disparate video game franchises might interact in a Super Smash Bros.-style duel can be achieved by seeing what happens when the Kool-Aid Man bursts through a wall and messes up a floor that Mr. Clean spent all day polishing. But, honestly, I just want to see peopleâs reactions when their groceries go on strike and move away.
Dunkin commercial with Ben Affleck, Casey Affleck, and Jeremy Strong
DunKings 2: Super Bowl Commercial ft. Ben & Casey Affleck, Jeremy Strong, Bill Belichick, & DruskiLetâs be clear: Dunkinâs Super Bowl commerical is very stupid (borderline insultingly stupid). But then, thatâs what makes the sight of Ben and Casey Affleck and Jeremy Strong doing battle with other coffee brands a car wreck of a commercial you donât want to look away from. As a TV show, the Affleck brothers running multiple Dunkinâ locations while trying to ward off competitors has the same absurdist foundation that made Eastbound and Down irresistible. With guest appearances from Super Bowl-winning coach Bill Belichick, Druski, possibly Matt Damon, and a bunch of others joining the fight, this could be a great late-night binge for the stoner crowd.
GoDaddy commerical with Walton Goggins
Act Like You Know :60 | GoDaddy Super Bowl Commercial 2025Anything Walton Goggins does deserves to be on TV, even if itâs just him breaking the fourth wall for a GoDaddy commerical. But, while the man who made a relatable antihero out of a human mutated by radiation in Fallout spends the ad joking about how actors rarely know anything about the professions they pretend to do, I wouldnât mind a TV show that puts him in an alternate reality where thereâs no difference between who you are on TV and who you are in your normal life. People would run up to him to help them stop bank robbers because he played a cop on The Shield, only for those same bank robbers to ask him for help since he also played a thief in Justified. There could be some sentimental overarching message about him having the potential to be anything, or some societal critique on our obsession with stars. Either way, I need Apple TV and the Severance creators to get the scripts going for this one.
