C

• C.E.O Dreamboats – a magazine with famous businessmen as objects of desire for teenyboppers.
• Calvin Klein Cream Pies – a parody of the Andie MacDowell Calvin Klein Jeans commercials. Julia Louis-Dreyfus plays an annoying jeans model who gets hit in the face with a custard pie after one of her shallow, rambling stories.
• Canis Cologne for Dogs – parody of a Calvin Klein fragrance ad.
• Caribbean Essence Bath Oil – foaming, scented bath enhancer that causes a West Indian man (Tracy Morgan) to pop up during the bath and carry his bathers across a beach.
• Carl Weathers for Governor – Following in the footsteps of his Predator co-stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse "The Body" Ventura, Carl Weathers promotes himself to be the next governor in any state that will take him.
• Carter 'N Sons BBQ – A barbecue commercial from 2002 is aired seven years later with disclaimers stating that Carter 'N Sons "Swine Fever" marketing tagline is in no way connected to the then-recent swine flu (H1N1 virus) epidemic.
• The Chameleon XLE – a luxury car on the inside, a dilapidated wreck on the outside—the better to deter the high risk of theft that accompanies luxury cars. The car features a simulated transmission fluid leak, mismatched hubcaps (and one exposed wheel painted school bus yellow), coat hanger antenna... and a supple leather-and-wood interior.
• The Change Bank – parodying banking service commercials, the ad promotes a bank that only makes change. How are they able to be successful? "Volume."
• cheapkids.net – a website dedicated to the sale of shoddy items for babies and toddlers for irresponsible parents.
• Chess for Girls! – a parody of the marketing of children's toys based on gender, this chess set (unrelated to the chess game in general) features pieces with Barbie doll-style bodies and chess piece heads, an accompanying dollhouse, beachwear, minivan, bubble blower, and so on. The tag line: "A classic game of strategy and wits... and bubbles!"
• Chewable Pampers – A line of Pampers diapers which contain flavor crystals that, once the diaper is soiled, turns into an edible treat.
• Chia Head – a parody of both the Chia Pet and Minoxidil, men with bald or receding hairlines use this product to give them nice green hair just like a Chia Pet. ("Not to be used in salads!")
• Citizens for a Better America – Dr. Swen Gazzara (Gilbert Gottfried) proves the value of hard work in America by asking Ronald Reagan to personally give him a "hum job".
• Closet Organizer – A man in a blue Spandex suit (Will Forte) is hired to organize anything in a closet that someone throws in.
• Clovin Hind Jeans – Gail Matthius plays Brooke Shields in this parody of Shields' racy Calvin Klein commercials.
• Cluckin' Chicken – a fast-food restaurant's animated mascot, when asked why he tastes so good, gleefully describes the process by which he is killed, decapitated and eviscerated, then flame-broiled (then, displaying a schematic chart, describes how he is consumed, digested, and eventually eliminated through defecation).
• Coldcock Malt Liquor – Tim Meadows plays Billy Dee Williams in a parody of Williams' ads for Colt 45; with each sip from a tall can of this beverage, a cartoon fist is summoned from the can's side to whack the drinker upside the jaw. Ellen Cleghorne ("I ain't afraid of no beer!") also stars.
• Colon Blow – In a parody of high-fiber cereal ads (notably Total and its "how many bowls" campaign), an off-screen voice tells cereal eater Phil Hartman he will need 30,000 bowls of his usual cereal to equal the fiber content in a single bowl of Colon Blow. (Also promoted is Super Colon Blow, with fiber content equal to that of 2.5 million bowls of Hartman's regular cereal.) When the large numbers are quoted, a pyramid of the same number of bowls elevates Hartman into the ionosphere.
• Colonel Belmont's Old Fashioned Horse Glue – Will Ferrell stars as Langford T. Belmont, a man whose family has been in the horse glue business for generations. It is a parody of commercials that try to appeal to old-fashioned values and tradition.
• Compulsion – a "Calvin Kleen" disinfectant, a parody of Obsession perfume and featuring an obsessive compulsive spokesmodel (played by Jan Hooks).
• Cookie Dough Sport – parody of Gatorade sports drink for athletes wherein Gatorade is replaced with cookie dough i.e. being poured over a winning coach or gulped down after a hard work out.
• Corn Chip Nail Tips – Maya Rudolph and Tracy Morgan appear in this parody of "hip" potato chip commercials, promoting corn chips that double as false fingernails.
• Count Chocula Silver – Count Chocula (Jimmy Fallon) promotes a newer version of his cereal made for the tastes of middle-aged people.
• Cracklin' Oat Flakes (Now with Ecstasy) – Will Ferrell wakes up to find that he has run out of his normal cereal, Cracklin' Oat Flakes. His wife then offers Cracklin' Oat Flakes, Now with Ecstasy. After one bowl, Ferrell creeps out his coworkers, makes out with Chris Parnell, then runs half-naked through the streets until he's seen in bed with a pacifier in his mouth and playing with a glowstick.
• Creeley's Soup – a sketch in which Gilda Radner, playing a child eating her soup, is annoyed by the announcer, who tells her that he will give her various things in exchange for her soup. She says "no" until she finally becomes frustrated and tells him, "No! Leave me alone! I'm eating!" The announcer then proceeds to tell her to take the little pieces of corn and shove them up into her nose. She asks why, and the reply is, "Because the Soup Man says so." She complies. After pouring the bowl of soup all over her nose (because according to the announcer "there's nothing better for a stuffy nose than nice hot soup"), the slogan for "Creeley's Soup" appears on the screen as the announcer intones: "Creeley's Soup – The Child Handler."
• The Crests and Troughs of Vernon Hawley, Jr. - featuring John Larroquette, the ad promotes an album about a Country-Western singer's bouts with alcoholism.
• Crystal Gravy – parody of the clear consumer products fad of the mid-1990s, specifically Crystal Pepsi commercials. Julia Sweeney enjoys a drumstick dipped in clear gravy straight from the jar, while Kevin Nealon gleefully splashes his face in the clear, gooey liquid.
