Old Spice, the body wash of choice for 20-something males with one or more roommates, is rolling out a new series of advertisements featuring a bizarre, malfunctioning robot that women find irresistible.

What's even better than a shirtless Isaiah Mustafa hawking for Old Spice? A shirtless Isaiah Mustafa hawking for Old Spice and wearing a scarf! Here are the latest batch of holiday-themed commercial spots, to which I can only respond by asking, "How the heck did Old Spice know exactly what I wanted for the holidays?"

Last we reported, Fabio had begun starring in a series of Old Spice commercials, claiming to be the "New Old Spice Guy." We were worried. Then on Monday, Fabio challenged the old Old Spice Guy to a duel, and Isaiah Mustafa accepted.

We're confused: is Fabio really the new Old Spice guy or are the new series of Old Spice ads featuring Italian model with golden locks just some kind of publicity stunt?

If you've always wondered how the ad guys get Isaiah Mustafa to travel around the world in one take, check out this behind-the-scenes clip made while the Old Spice commercial was being filmed. Lots of wires and awkward positions (that's what she said)! A warning: at 1:10, when Isaiah says "the ladies," your…

Isaiah Mustafa and his "striking brown eyes" are back, in this teaser trailer for a brand new Old Spice ad campaign.

Alaska Senate candidate Joe Miller mocks incumbent Lisa Murkowski, who lost in the primary, in what's possibly the least embarrassing Old Spice ad parody ever. Kudos to Joe for resisting the urge to ride a staffer dressed as a cow.

We never though someone would be able to top Isaiah Mustafa's epic performance as That Man Your Man Could Smell Like, but then Grover came along to teach us about monster scents and the word "on."

A new series of Canadian Stayfree ads features different "ideal" boyfriends discussing feminine hygiene. But, while Isaiah Mustafa's ads were charming and original, watching shirtless dudes test out maxi pads is just uncomfortable.

Well, we all thought it seemed kind of strange when reports came out that the Old Spice campaign corresponded with a drop in sales. Turns out, we should have had more faith in Isaiah Mustafa!

The Old Spice commercials were a viral sensation, and the Old Spice guy is a celebrity. So why did sales of Old Spice body wash actually drop? Maybe because women are letting men buy their own damn body wash?

In a piece for The Daily Beast, Tricia Romano writes, "It's hard to say whether [Isaiah] Mustafa and Old Spice would have paired up 10 or 20 years ago, unless he was a famous star athlete like O.J. Simpson." And:

"Hello, ladies!" So says the star of this new—and incredibly clever/funny—Old Spice commercial, who woos all of the females with his seemingly endless array of woman-attracting skills. "Swan dive... into the best night of your live!" Video inside.

In this week's compilation of pop culture crap, Snooki is back on our TV sets, an evil cat tries to murder its owner, and more on scientific fart protection.

Prepare yourselves for April 5th, and cue the eardrum-piercing shrieks! (Will everyone get free bodywash?) [AdAge]
