How do you pronounce 'sublime'?

I was just watching TV, and a commercial came on for a haircolor. 

The person doing the commercial said 'sub-leem' several times. 

I'm sorry...have I been pronouncing this word incorrectly my whole life?

How do YOU pronounce the word sublime?

    sub - lime. ("i" sound like "my").

    This made me laugh out loud.  sub-leem?  Really? 
    Childhood cancer (DH) + chemo + radiation = 0 sperm.
    LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.
    LO #2 - 1 m/c, 2 BFNs, 4th IUI worked (unmedicated/self-monitored with new donor sperm).
    Life is beautiful!

    I saw that same commercial yesterday and was so confused why they were saying the word so weird.  I've never heard it pronounced sub-leem before.  It sounds ridiculous!

    Did the person doing the voice over have an accent? French, for instance? If so, then "sub-leem" would be reasonable. For an average English speaker, um, no.
