Though the Super Bowl unites millions of football fans every year, not everyone is in it for the sport. Even more viewers tune in to see their favorite performers dance and sing, a fantastic slate of trailers for movies, and the most exciting commercials one can imagine. That last draw is often one of the most talked about for years to come, which is why CBS is airing a special called Super Bowl Greatest Commercials: Battle of the Decades.
Premiering tonight at 8pm ET/PT on CBS and available to stream on Paramount+, Super Bowl Greatest Commercials: Battle of the Decades will feature a showdown between NCIS: Los Angeles star Daniela Ruah and CBS Sports’ The NFL Today analyst Boomer Esiason. The two CBS mainstays will share their personal favorite ments from each decade before making their ultimate choice for the best Super Bowl commercial from the last four decades. America will pick the winner from the top two finalists via LIVE vote, and that commercial will be crowned at the end of the special.
What To Expect From Super Bowl Greatest Commercials: Battle of the Decades
In Screen Rant's exclusive clip from CBS' Super Bowl Greatest Commercials: Battle of the Decades, Daniela arrives at Boomer's changing room to find him hard at work on his 1984 supercomputer. She questions his unique taste in technology, but he is adamant that his floppy desk will get the job done — by the end of the show at the latest. Their minor squabble over which decade one's PC should come from is a taste of what the evening as a whole will have in store, as the hosts debate the most iconic Super Bowl commercials of the last several decades.
Aside from fun banter between the hosts, Super Bowl Greatest Commercials: Battle of the Decades will feature exclusive behind-the-scenes looks at some of the most classic and memorable Super Bowl commercials from the last 40 years, as well as replays of iconic commercials from Budweiser, Coke, Pepsi, and Doritos. Co-host of Entertainment Tonight Kevin Frazier will discuss the new commercials from this year’s Super Bowl, a conversation that will be capped off by an exclusive interview with four-time Super Bowl Champion and five-time NFL Pro-Bowler Rob Gronkowski prior to his live Super Bowl LVII commercial from FanDuel. The Talk’s Akbar Gbajabiamila will also for sideline commentary on his favorite spots.
