Best Inspirational:
Coca-Cola, being the marketing powerhouse that it is, is always expected to do something big. While not all of its ads met expectations this year (we want the polar bears!), this one was pretty darn touching.

Best Random:

Best Tearjerker: What’s more American than horses, Fleetwood Mac, and beer? Absolutely nothing. The sentimental ad served as a break from the perpetual parade of comedic commercials.

Best Product:
