What if we tried to make ads more fun the other 364 days of the year? We started with Groundhog Day! Stephen Tobolowsky keeps coming back for more in the first-ever déjà vu commercial time loop.

Getting Stephen Tobolowsky to do this was a stroke of genius, and I actually watched all eight of these. Mission accomplished
Truth! I was stoked to see Stephen!
But wait! There's "Veggie Poppables'!
That’s Ned Ryerson, insurance guy
@@JesusHComedy Needlenose Ned! Ned the Head! Am I right or am I right…or am I right?
@@JesusHComedyNed?!?! *PUNCH*
Ryan not only made me watch a commercial, he made me watch 10. ... And I'd watch 10 more for you, boss.
You've watched it! And you'll watch it again!
@@KikiT92 and it was still fun... 20 views later...
But are you going to buy these Brands?
@@michaelhafergut-fuchs7381 I have on occasion purchased these chips. I will, on occasion continue to purchase them. These won't change my level of interest in these products but I've grown one step closer to becoming Ryan's new best friend. Don't ruin my delusion!
@@michaelhafergut-fuchs7381can’t get them in the UK but we have tried them when in America. They are just like our Walkers crisps!
I love Tobolowsky. I worked on a low budget film with him 10 years ago and he was such a pro; no ego, friendly and when the camera rolled, he gave it his all on each take.
I miss The Tobolowsky Files.
It always warms my heart to hear about actors who are so wonderful and kind. I grew up about 15 minutes from Hollywood and I have heard so many shattering things in my life, now being 65. Thank you so much for your comment and for all the work you must have done that we are not aware of.
Ned? Ned Ryerson?? 😂😂😂 Watch out! That first step is a doozy!
Ding ding!
Bing!!!!
They should've had him eating one at the end. Bill pops up as the chip's going into his mouth. "Watch that first chip. It's a doooooozy! "
Needle Nose Ned, Ned in the Head, Case Western High.
@@theivory1 I dated your sister in high-school! NED?! 👊🏼
I love how the little background jingle keeps playing slower/faster/weirder with every ad.
Touch of genius right there...
Crap, now I need to watch it again for just that detail...
I missed that. I both want, and don’t want, to go back and check that out.
Thank you for pointing this out. I was wondering.
"looping back" to see that.... now I'll be watching all those Lay's all over again.
This can only mean that Phil Connors discovered how to trap someone in a time loop and decided to try it with Ned Ryerson, the insurance guy
Phil learned to play piano, robbed a bank, and befriended everyone in town, but Ned is stuck buying every flavor of Lay's.... Ned's clearly in the better loop. (JK)
@@truthedministryTechnically he is in the better loop and shorter loop as well. Lays has roughly over 200 different flavors. While, Phil was stuck in a loop for anywhere between ten years (mentioned by Director Harold Ramis), although it was initially 10,000 years. We also were given the explanation that it was 33 years and 350 days... So.. Better loop.
Ned is the man for ALL your insurance needs.
Conner? Get to the plane.
@@cewafflesAdd in the assorted dips...applied to each flavor of chips...and then each bag size.... 😋
Brilliant commercial on multiple levels. Great play on 'Groundhog Day' (both the phrase and the movie), and manages to advertise multiple flavors/products while being entertaining!
The main guy is from Groundhog Day too
lol not the Main Guy.@@cps5217
Horrible Commerical... Could have been so much better. This writing was horrible.
One of the most *meta* ad series ever conceived. What was brilliant about it is that these ads were run throughout a daylong endless repeat of the movie Groundhog Day on AMC.
This would make an excellent series of Super Bowl ads! You're just watching them thinking, oh, I've already seen this one. No wait, that's not what happened last time. Slowly going crazy with each one...
Completely agree, little snippets that pop in every so often. It would might up the switchboard at Lays.
That's an excellent idea
That’s most likely what these are intended for because it works for a long duration broadcast with a committed audience who’ll see all adds.
This is most certainly going to be used for the Super Bowl yeah
Every time Ryan makes an Ad, it’s ALWAYS Super Bowl worthy Other commercials try, but can NEVER reach that pinnacle of appreciation!!!
Artemis Pebdani absolutly killed it as the casher, Lulu. MAD Kathryn Hahn vibes. Bubbly, confident, and just the right amount of sinister. Awesome casting.
I just adore her laugh 😂
that hairstyle is ridiculously adorable on her.
She's actually looking really good, too.
She bleaches her a**hole. She's a champion.
Artemis who? That's Ryan Gosling
4:10 - Her reaction is priceless. “Why yes they do!!!!!”
Ned? Ned Ryerson? Needle-nose Ned? Is that you? Ooh, you've got Lays. You know, those Lays just keep me comin' back....
Bing!
All this needed was a scene at the end showing him leaving the store and Bill Murray calls out to him. "Stephen? Stephen Tobolowsky?! Stephen Tobolosky, I thought that was you!"
❤
And something about "boy, you sure got Layd!" :-) (Or at least showing a groundhog somewhere.)
“Bing!”
"Now don't tell me you don't remember me because I sure as heckfire remember you! Bill! Murray! Bill the Pill, Caddyshack Bill, come on, buddy, Case Western High!"
"Bet you didn't get insurance for this one"
Lays: Ryan, we’d like you to make us a commercial. Ryan: What if Lays reminded people they were in an unending hell of starch and repetition?
😲 *This existential crisis brought to you by... Lays!* 😋
Perfect Super Bowl ad idea, play these in order throughout the game
I love when adverts have fun like this
If he just fixed the drawer for her, he'd be allowed to escape the loop. Also, Stephen is one of the nicest guys ever. Bing!
And maybe ask her on a date.
Bing again!
No way it's the trainsformers guy!
Am i right or am i right? Right? Rrrright!
No, it’ll be broken the next day.
Stephen Tobolowsky is one of the most talented and underrated/underappreciated actors.
What was he in. He feels familiar but I can’t put my finger on where I saw him.
@@thedukeofchutney468 I remember him as the old choir teacher from glee
The insurance guy from the movie Groundhog Day @@thedukeofchutney468
He was on Community as a teacher one episode, he was in The Radioland Murders, Groundhog's Day (obviously), lots of stuff. He's great!
And Action Jack from Silicon Valley.
Oh my gosh this is PERFECT! It just gets FUNNIER! 😆 Now they MUST make a movie about this to continue the tradition!
Beautiful homage to a classic movie in a Lays commercial. Brilliant
A movie that is more than 3 decades old or more than a quarter of a century and a year before I was born. Fascinating.
Being five years old explains your grammar skills.
Psycho?
@@Woozlewuzzleable 1993 Groundhog Day
@@imtekcs I'm going with Psycho. Still waiting for the part (with the shower scene music) where he hits her repeatedly with the bag of Lays. 😁
the only guy who can make me watch an entire commercial
And a 4 minute commercial at that.
…again. And again…
And willingly
Gives me Great Choice vibes: Person trapped in a food commercial, repeating a loop that gets slightly different as they realise that something’s off
This is some ridiculously good marketing. Like I am unironically baffled. AND I want some plain Lay’s now. Actually sold me the product in a clever way, like back in the old days? I love it!
It's even funnier when you put the captions on. [STILL STRAINED LAUGHTER] [NO LAUGHTER] 🤣🤣
Yes 😂
Artemis!!!!❤❤❤ "What if there is no tomorrow? There wasn't one today!"
I was so pumped when i saw Artemis!!!!
I was looking for this comment! It's always sunny when Artemis is around lol
OOOOH shit you are right it's her!
I FRIGGIN' WONDERED WHY SHE LOOKED SO DAMN FAMILIAR! THANK YOU!!!!!
Thank you!!! I couldn’t quite place her and that voice was so familiar.
"Ooo, they make veggie poppables?!" that made me laugh so hard. I wish all commercials were like this.
This was terrifying and incredible all at the same time.
Credit to the producers. They did a great job of making this look like a Pennsylvanian grocery store. I’ve never been to one in or around Punxsutawney, but this is what all the generic grocery stores here look like. Happy Groundhogs day, everybody.
It absolutely does. Def the mid size rural ones.
Artemis Pebdani is freaking fantastic in this. Even though its just the same lines she makes it epic. I adored her on Scandal.
She's beautiful
Whoever directed these commercials needs to get a raise.
I love how the music changes tempo every time
This just this is why Sir Ryan "Deadpool" Reynolds is a gift to humanity that we don't deserve but are so thankful for
These Lay's commercials do keep me coming back
You said it!
and he'll say it again @@Tranceplant82
@@ShutUpCleanYourMonitor Hahahahahahahahahahahaha
I haven’t been this invested in a commercial storyline since long long man
These are brilliant!!😂😂 The 2/2, the music changing slightly each time, the cashier's responses! 😂 Excellent work, Lays!
This is how you give homage to a great movie without ripping it off. I absolutely love this.
If only they could have got Bill Murray to cameo and have Stephen punch HIM this time
Some say that Bill passed on the curse to Stephen. "Unintentionally" ;)
Ned. Ryerson. I have missed you so much.
Ehhh. I gotta go.
TBC?
I think Phil Connors is too busy these days ...I mean that one day... driving around in his Jeep Gladiator.
This is brilliant. On so many levels. I love that Stephen Tobolowsky is in this. I love the writing. I love the comedy. I have never been so satisfied with a commercial.
The best commercial I've ever seen in my life 😂
and you got to see it 10 times.
And I'll say it again.
@@Woozlewuzzleable hahahaha
It just keep making me come back🫨
Hmm... Have you seen... long long man?
Is He the Insurance guy from Groundhog day? His goofy laugh brings back the memory.
Yes he is
Dopey
Don't say you don't remember me, because I sure as heckfire remember you!
"Bing"
Bing!
When it comes to character actors, Stephen Tobolowsky is a legend.
Now Ned Ryerson gets to experience the Groundhog loop.
"NED!" is maybe my favorite movie moment ever. Way to maximize a set and talent! It's the scrappiness of it all that may be the most brilliant thing!
watch out for that first bag, it's a doozie
I understood that reference…
Well played. 50 points.
😂😂😂 👍👍👍
He really should have said "watch out for that drawer, it's a doozy!" 😂😂😂
Kudos to everyone involved in making this. I was watching General Hospital today without knowing anything about this and just stumbled onto the ads. Just brilliant. You guys did put the maximum effort into this. 💯 Now do a Season 2.
Oh my gosh!! Lays nailed it!! Absolutely genius!! Love it!
The background music shifts really put the icing on the cake. Genius.
the fact that he played Ned Ryerson in the original movie makes it all the better for me XD
I love the ads. Always entertaining. Just keeps me coming back.
“And I’ll be back because I’m never getting out of here” lol
Ryan Reynolds is making everything brilliant
I love a disturbing video to start my day. Thank you Rey! You seem to know what your audience really needs and wants! ❤
3:14-3:34 is my absolute favorite part. It feels like some genuine Stephen Tobolowsky.
I watched the whole thing. Totally worth it! Stephen is the best
This definitely requires a rewatch of Groundhog Day. Ned, I miss you! Rrrrrwow!
Ryan's ads just keep me coming back.
This guy is a legend! I was expecting him to say "it's a doozy". We need another Groundhog day type film, they're brilliant.
Lol, kept seeing this commercial while watching the Groundhog Day marathon on AMC all day
That uncertain laugh after the third time got me and I was laughing my butt off!
Absolutely Brilliant! Glad to see Mr. Tobolowsky is still going strong.
The slight changes in music were a great touch!
Stephen Tobolowsky is a really good actor, one of my faves
What if I stumbled on? Ryan, we love you.
Action Jack Backer!! Mr. Conjoined Triangle of Success. 😂
Ok this commercial is genius on so many levels! The homages to GHD move with the same actor that played Ned. And I literally keep coming back to each commercial…so these lays commercials keeps me coming back for more.
He was in one of my favourite That '70's Show episodes playing that strange psych teacher who is fascinated by human foibles. It was where I learned what that word even was lol
Only Ryan could make us watch commercials for 4 minutes and 11 seconds. Willingly. And thankful for it.
It took me a few seconds to recognize Stephen, I'm glad Ryan manages to not only find these old actors who aren't as popular as they once were and get them more mainstream recognition.
someone doesnt know about the conjoined triangles of success
@@oh6553 I do not. It's also a good way to let people know he's still alive as there was a small reunion of the Groundhog Day movie cast and crew yesterday with people wondering where he was. A few people in the comments mentioned this commercial so they didn't have to Google him to find out if he died.
I love the fact that Ned gets to live the nightmare now
i just spent 4 minutes watching a commercial and im wiping tears from my eyes.. good job Ryan lol
We in Canada salute you 🫡🇨🇦 you are a breath of fresh air 😊
Ryan just made me watch a dude having Groundhog day in a supermarket with different lays😭
I'll go to the wall for Stephen Tobolowsky every time, the man is a legend.
You have to admire the commitment of Lay's. A 30 second spot during the Super Bowl is expensive enough, but 8 of them?? Honestly, that was the best $56,000,000 commitment to a joke ive ever seen
Thank you Tommy Wiseau for another banger of an Ad. Just keeep me coming back!!!
The best commercials!! Beautiful movie, a great actor, just brilliant 😍😍
Stephen’s a great character actor! Love to see him still acting!
The best commercials!! Beautiful movie, a great actor, just brilliant
This is great. The change each time is perfect sequencing. Whoever the lady playing the cashier is, she did a terrific job. Thanks for the entertainment. Love Lays.
It's like watching the clock click over to 6:00... 😁 (It would have been better if Bill Murray showed up and hugged him again, lol...)
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Ryan Reynold's a marketing Genius, Can't wait for DP 3!
That's what she said
This was an awesome Groundhog Lays chips compilation!
This is brilliant! And the music changes make it even better.
Best commercial ever and I'll say it again.
Brilliant! Oh, and did I just watch a four minute Lays commercial? Which reminds me, I need to pick up some Lays at the store tomorrow.
Genuinely the best thing in Groundhog Day.
These are the best series of commercials I've seen in a long time.
My goodness you all are so funny and clever. I love yall.
This is brilliant. I have ad-blocking software on everything. I pay extra to NOT see ads if it's an option. But I just happily watched 10 commercials in a row. That's how it should be done. Well played, Ryan and Lays.
This may be the best spin-off I've ever watched. 😂
I wish Phil Conners could have witnessed Ned Ryerson on his Lays repeat 😂
Deadpool 3 will be legendary
Will be
I can’t wait for July!
Me thinking this was a random comment until I saw who uploaded the video
Is it weird how much I look forward to seeing Ryan’s commercials when they come out? 😂❤
Nice to see that Ned finally got to see what Phil had to go through.
I love it when ads are funny and not just pure advertisement.
Ned Ryerson? Bing!
💯
Haha, well done. Groundhog Day is one of my favorite movies
Creativity of that advertisement, just keep me coming back😅😅😅
I love this so much. Groundhog Day is my favorite. We watch it EVERY Feb 2 😍
Every time he posts it’s great
