Lost / Target Commericals that aired during LOST FINALE

Here in NY we got to see some great Lost inspired Target commercials during the Lost Finale. Did anyone else across the country see them?

There was one showing someone trying to type in the hatch's numbers on a keyboard but the keyboard sort of froze up....(commercial for new keyboards).

There was one with the smoke monster (commercial for smoke detectors)...

And one showing a wild boar running through the jungle (commercial for bbq sauce).

They were GREAT! :lol:
 
I usually hate commercials, but these were clever and make me want to go to Target (and get socks) :D
 
You know this whole joke on Letterman about the getting socks at Target was extra funny in my town because there was a big uproar when the Target was built that it would put small shops out of business, but the other side argued that there was no place in town to buy socks. So the whole campaign for Target was basically, you will have a place to come buy socks now. :lol:
 
I loved them! It's rare that I actually stop fast-forwarding to watch a commercial, but this time, I'm glad I did.
 
Here they are! :D

I thought they were a very clever tie-in. If you have to interrupt a huge finale event for commercials that's the way to do it. Short, to the point, and funny.
 
i liked them very much...but actually wished we saw them EARLIER in Lost's life...a great way to make us watch commercials...all thye needed were some more Hanso Foundation commercials...which i LOVED
 
BTW, is there alotta Lost merchandise out there for sale? I've only come across the DVDs, action figs, and a few books. I'd love to have a t-shirt with Locke on it that reads, "We are not the only people on this island, and we all know it!", or one that shows Locke and Jack staring down The Hatch. (For me, it was always "The Jack and Locke Show", co-starring everyone else.) :)
