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

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.

i love the ads with a goldfish swimming with the yellow and purple tangs
