If you were part of the 100 million viewers who tuned in to CBS to watch the Super Bowl this year, ask yourself this: Who was the advertiser you saw the most? It’s likely that CBS definitely ranks high in your memory. Not only did CBS receive honors for having the highest-rated ad during the Super Bowl (its Person of Interest ad that aired at 10:31 p.m. EST won a household rating of 47.4, according to Kantar Media), but the network also significantly increased its advertising efforts since the Super Bowl of 2012, with 13 ads for its own programming between kickoff and the first half, compared to last year’s six.

A quick survey/poll administered the day after the Superbowl by Dynamic Logic asked 352 US adults 18+ their favorability towards each of the ads.

The Guacamole Report: The Chips and Dips of Superbowl XLIV
<p>1. My wife's 15 year old cousin had joined the "Keep your hands off my mama, keep your hands off my Doritos" Facebook group by 9pm Sunday night. Apparently, that was a win! </p><p>2.

I'm a Pepper, you're a Pepper, wouldn't you like to have a giant tongue? And midgets. Could you ask for anything more? I'm sorry. I don't want Gene Simmons anywhere near my soda. </p><p>6. I found FloTV telling a guy to "change out of that skirt" to be in poor taste. Just crude, really. It's a shame because they did such a good job with the Will.i.am "Talking bout my Generation" remix—but I'm left with a bad taste in my mouth about the brand. </p><p>7. Dodge. I watch a vampire show with my wife. Thanks for pointing that out. </p><p>8. Is it just me or... Read more
