We all know Mentos has some weird commercials. But Quiznos seems to have some pretty bizarre ones too. Are there any commercials that you think are so weird you would like to share?

Local commercials tend to be more bizarre (and much, much worse) than any even regional commercial. My mom's ad agency had a client that insisted on doing the on-camera spiel for his appliance store chain commercials, and he was so very good at being VERY bad that the commercials worked BECAUSE he was so bad. Most locals are just horrendous, but while there are a few good ones, the few incredibly terrible ones more than make up for them.
Those Quiznos commercials with the talking oven are surreal enough to at least be watchable. The Mentos commercials worked a few times, but now the "Mentos make everything wonderful" idea is just boring and stupid.
