Ben Stiller made a commercial for the Super Bowl, he told Jimmy Fallon on Monday's Tonight Show. Well, it's really "more like a public service announcement," Stiller said, but much to his chagrin, CBS didn't broadcast it. The ad was for Female Viagra, and Fallon just happened to have the clip to show the world. It features Stiller on a bed in a football jersey, and it paints a pretty bleak portrait of post-marital bedroom vibrancy. "The thing is, even though 0 percent of women suffer from erectile dysfunction, over 98 percent of women over 30 suffer from another condition, called Not Being Turned On By Their Husband Anymore," Stiller said. And Female Viagra is just the thing to light that spark again, at least when necessary and for a few minutes. Watch the decidedly unromantic PSA below. Peter Weber
