This Year's Best Mother's Day Ads (UPDATED)

Virgin Mobile's ad, starring Susie Essman (from Curb Your Enthusiasm), is the clear winner. Bonus appearance by a knife-wielding Overly Attached Girlfriend.

1. Virgin Mobile — starring Susie Essman

EASILY, the best Mother's Day ad I've seen this year.
"I spent two hours a day for six months clenching my snapdragon with a rubber ball..."

2. Google

As opposed to Facebook, Google has Human tech advertising down to a science.

3. Kobo eReader

Near perfect commercial that perfectly ties in with the product (a universal ad problem).

4. Sport Chek

Sport Chek is Canada's largest sports equipment retailer.
Spot stars Canadian Olympic hockey player Meaghan Mikkelson and her mother, doing what mothers do best.

5. BONUS: Laina, aka Overly Attached Girlfirend, sends you running into your mother's arms, gentlemen.
