Super Bowl commercials have often been called one of the best reasons to watch the big game live.
Sometimes the actual game is a dud, and we have to rely on the amusing ads for any entertainment that night.
Luckily, there were a handful of advertisements that made it a lot easier to watch this year’s lopsided game between the Eagles and Patriots.
Now, Watch With Us is presenting our picks for the seven best 2026 Super Bowl commercials.
Ben Affleck Embarrasses J. Lo In Front of Tom Brady in Dunkin Super Bowl Ad
7. ‘Good Will Dunkin”
Ben Affleck‘s original Dunkings ad is even funnier two years later because Jennifer Lopez looked like she was going divorce him before that commercial was even over. For the third year in a row, Affleck is back with another Dunkin’ Donuts ad, this time spoofing his Oscar-winning screenplay for Good Will Hunting.
It’s not as funny as Affleck’s previous commercials, but the nostalgia factor is high with ’90s sitcom superstars Jennifer Aniston, Ted Danson and Jason Alexander. A Different World‘s Jasmine Guy, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air‘s Alfonso Ribeiro and ex-Steve Urkel, Jaleel White, rounded out the cast with some guy named Tom Brady.
6. ‘The Expert’ Featuring Adrien Brody
If you win a couple of Oscars, you’re allowed to be a little ridiculous. Two-time Best Actor winner Adrien Brody can’t get out of his own way in this TurboTax commercial. Since Brody the actor only knows how to project turmoil and inner pain, pretending to be a happy customer is a bridge too far for this award-winning performer.

Brody is pretty good at mocking himself here. Maybe we’ll see more of his comedic side in the future.
5. ‘Unavailable’
If Emma Stone is starring in something weird, chances are good it was directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. Sure enough, this year’s Squarespace ad was directed by Lanthimos in black and white, with Stone portraying a version of herself who freaks out every time she can’t register the domain of her stage name. More specifically, she smashes and breaks laptops every time she gets the same result.
This is less bizarre than Stone’s previous collaborations with Lathimos, including Poor Things, Kinds of Kindness and Bugonia. Apparently, the ad was inspired by Stone’s multi-year quest to get the domain from its previous owner. The real EmmaStone.com is now live, and it’s just as artsy fartsy as this commercial.

4. ‘Kellogg’s Raisin Bran Will Shat’
Surely someone could do the math about how many times William Shatner has visited the bathroom in his 94 years of life. In this ad, the Star Trek icon goes from a space explorer to an evacuation facilitator as he beams all over the country to get people more regular with their bowel movements.
Is it really a higher calling when it comes from down below? Only the Shat man knows for sure. It’s an odd way for Kellogg’s Raisin Bran to sell itself, because who wants to think about that when you’re having breakfast? But Shatner himself is so game for it that a potentially embarrassing ad is an instant camp classic.
3. ‘Stop Livin’ on a Prayer’
Hailee Steinfeld‘s husband, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, had to stay home from the Super Bowl this year. But Steinfeld got to star in one of the funniest commercials of the event, which featured Danny McBride and Keegan-Michael Key belting out a variation on Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer.” Except this version is all about the things that their insurance agency won’t cover.

Steinfeld’s reactions were on point, as she played a woman who would rather jump in a car with an aging rock star, Jon Bon Jovi, than spend another minute with these two maniacs. The cameo by the girl band Katseye was another nice touch, as they fangirled over Jake from State Farm (Kevin Miles). It’s going to be really hard for Miles to escape that role someday.
2. ‘Jurassic Park… Works’
It was a coup for Xfinity to get all three of the primary Jurassic Park stars — Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neill — for an alternate take on what would have happened if everything in the theme park worked like it was supposed to. Instead of a dino disaster with a giant pile of poop, it’s a glorious weekend getaway with an immense amount of shrimp.
Of course, if Jurassic Park had been this easy to navigate, it wouldn’t have been a blockbuster. But the hilarity of this ad can’t be denied.
1. ‘Pringleleo’
So, Sabrina Carpenter got to hang out with the Muppets and create a Pringleman in a single weekend? This gal is going places! In all seriousness, Carpenter seems to have a good knack for marketing herself by completely diving into the off-the-wall premise of this ad. If Carpenter can’t find the perfect man, then she’ll make one… out of Pringles.

The ultimate fate of Pringleman wasn’t a surprise, but Carpenter’s reaction was genuinely hilarious. This is one of the few Super Bowl ads that may have some legs to it, now that football season has come to an end.
