Neil Patrick Harris is known for two major roles—his dorky child star role as Doogie Howser and his suave comeback as Barney on How I Met Your Mother. Pretty different roles, but they both play a part in Old Spice's latest spot. Harris presents himself as a former pretend doctor in a very Barney-like character in Barney's dream fake hospital with hot nurses and people making out in the hallways. If you're going to use a celebrity spokesperson, this is the way to do it.

I love this commercial!
I must say that the Old Spice guy is still the ultimate manly winner here, but nevertheless Barley Stinson deserves some recognition as well. I first saw these cool commercials back when I was in Toronto. They were even a whole night's topic that my friends and I talked about. Apparently, we wanted to be just as manly as the Old Spice guy.
