For additional data on how the other 32 commercials in the Super Bowl performed in terms of brand recall and likeability, please call the media contact listed above.

The brand recall is based on the percentage of TV viewers who can recall within 24 hours the brand of the ad they were exposed to during the normal course of TV viewing. The likeability measures how popular the ads are by monitoring which ads most frequently scored the highest among IAG panelists. These scores are then indexed against the mean score for all ads during the time period.
