ROBERT HOROWITZ - SUPER BOWL’S GREATEST COMMERCIALS

Robert Horowitz, the executive producer of SUPER BOWL’S GREATEST COMMERCIALS, is an expert on all things related to commercials and advertising, especially as it pertains to the biggest football game of the year.  Bob is used regularly this time of year to give his take in the media on which ads will punch through on Super Bowl Sunday and what’s at stake for advertisers.  The special, now in its 14th year, celebrates the best, most creative and popular Super Bowl commercials, and allows for fans to vote on their favorites.

SUPER BOWL’S GREATEST COMMERCIALS 2014 is an interactive countdown special where viewers will be able to vote LIVE on CBS.com for their favorite Super Bowl Commercials.  The special, hosted by Boomer Esiason, Analyst for CBS Sports’ NFL pre-game show THE NFL TODAY, and Sarah Shahi, star of the CBS drama PERSON OF INTEREST, will be broadcast WEDNESDAY, JAN. 29 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) ON THE CBS TELEVISION NETWORK.

Sponsors present their best commercials during the Super Bowl, and the big game wouldn’t be quite the same without them. For the advertising community, the Super Bowl is their Super Bowl, and often creates commercials specifically for the enormous viewership that the game provides.  For many, watching the commercials is the most entertaining part of the Super Bowl. Advertisers try to get their money’s worth by rolling out their most creative and innovative spots.  This one-hour special, now in its 14th year, will originate from MetLife Stadium, home of “Super Bowl XLVIII” and celebrates the pop culture phenomena that has become almost as big as the game itself.
