We as a group remember it because of the flaw with fish choice, and the color issues with some of the fish (man I wish my Naso was that colorful!) but others just think it is so freakin cool!
Point well taken :)

I mean...well, there's a freshwater fish swimming around with four saltwater fish. Ok, maybe I'm just picky, but C'MON! It's like Telus making a commercial set in the Serengeti, with a zebra, a giraffe, a lion and a.....moose.
hahah- i thought i was the only one. my wife makes fun of me when i get all worked up when that comes on

Heh that stupid freshwater parrotfish ticks me off every time I see that commercial. So annoying!!!

It's catchy I'll give it that.

Poor parrot is going to drown in salt water though :p

Hahahahhaha.

Guys, maybe the Parrotfish is supposed to symbolize Telus' liberal support for anti-racism.

Think outside the box!

My wife knows that commercial makes me shake my head... so she calls me as if she has something important to tell me when i am out of the room so she can laugh at me when i see that parrot swimming around....

I am on board the band wagon... i think it is annoying as far as commercials go....

in their original one, they had a trigger that looked a lot like a crosshatch trigger, and if I recall correctly, they're one of the meanest SW fish out there.
