Least favorite commercials

[Reply #280 on:]

There is this cereal commercial with kids who act like crackheads suffering from withdrawal, just because they 're out of Nestle cereals.

[Reply #281 on:]

I despise the Nesquick Cereal advert. Kid's should be snortin' crack instead of being hooked on that crap.

Oh my God you just reminded me of that fucking irritating carpet steamer advert! I don't know if it's dubbed because it's foreign or if it's dubbed because the steamer is so loud you can't hear over the top of it but whyever it's done its awful!

"What's that mummy?"
"It's a carpet steamer dear, it was invented by some twat"
"Yaaaaaaaaay!"
*Kid runs around room like a little retard riddled with spasticity*

[Reply #283 on:]

That carpet steamer advert cracks me up everytime!
It's just whenever the voice over says "Yes it does" you can see the actors lips going "No!!"

I dunno but I've always smelled something fishy about AOL commercials. They have this new one which takes from the show The 6 Million Dollar man: "We can make him better, stronger. We have the technology." Get over it, you're losing the crowd. If by "better" I hope you mean "70% cheaper".

[Reply #285 on:]

You should see the British AOL Advert. I'm a victim of them.

[Reply #286 on:]

There was this advert on TV this morning - I can't remember what for - but people's feet kept getting stuck to the floor and melting...

[Reply #287 on:]

The New Honda Accord Advert which was shown during the Grand Prix last week, is the best advert ever!

[Reply #288 on:]

The one with all the cause and effect things with the car parts, yeah, that's brilliant!

There's another one with the slogan, "Feed your inner child!", and it has a guy on a couch feeding this big light blue hairy creature, it's great!
I think it's for a cereal.

Also, the Veet is quite sexy.

[Reply #289 on:]

That Honda advert is brilliant

New Olive Gardern Commercial... Their campain recently has been to show "real" Italians going to Olive Garden.

New one is about the older grandfather "finnally achiving his lifetime goal of becoming an American  citizen!" And they mention this a couple more times... Don't want to be associated with those evil forigners... (don't think the Brits willl be seeing this one)

[Reply #291 on:]

Oh I saw that Honda advert during WWTBAM? and I know it reminds me of something but I can't remember what!

[Reply #292 on:]

Mouse Trap?

[Reply #293 on:]

Yes!!   

Now that I think about it, maybe it wasn't Mouse Trap afterall. I keep thinking Wallace and Gromit but there was nothing like that in there. And Sgt. Blob's knitting machine from The Dreamstone keeps popping into my head too.

Olive Garden: We support illegal immigration! And, shouldn't being an American citizen be something you should probably have taken care of already, if you were 70 something?

CNX's new promotion with Brack. I've never wanted to hurt a cartoon character so much since Cubert.

[Reply #296 on:]

You mean those "Brak uses 1-800-COLLECT" commericals? God, I hate those. If I watched the Brak Show, those commericals might make me stop.

[Reply #297 on:]

How can you hate Brak? Brak is lovable!

[Reply #298 on:]

He is. But too much Brak can make your head hurt.

[Reply #299 on:]

I love the add for pergot 206 in australia. With the indian guy who makes his crappy car into a 206. ohh the hilarity*

*that was actually not sarcism

[Reply #300 on:]

I see that dammed Renou advert with that honest to god annoying song one more time, I am going to scream and jump up and down on my Digital remote in frustration.

[Reply #301 on:]

Those are the commercials I hate

[Reply #302 on:]

I completely agree. I hate them...

"Do you want to consolidate all your existing loans into one managable lump sum?..."
"Like I told you 10 minutes when you last offended my intelligence: NO! I'VE GOT NO TIME FOR THIS, LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!"

Here in New Jersey, the local radio stations are always running ads for the "US Window Factory" I swear, they must hold auditions to find actors with the most annoying voices imaginable.

[Reply #304 on:]

Radio Adverts are THE WORST.

Ever heard a Wonderplast advert..?...It sounds like a Bunch of late Middle age Women singing for there freedom.

[Reply #305 on:]

Nurdy, you're lucky you don't live around here, you've not heard anything until you've heard "Big John from Karelia Cars".

[Reply #306 on:]

 

The title sounds bad enough.

And here's another one:

24 24 24, A brand new Taxi to the door
*Sound or record scratching*

Repeat that 7 times with a stale 'Roar' between the scratching.

[Reply #307 on:]

i hate any ad with that stupid Toyota Camel...... grrr...

[Reply #308 on:]

I rather like the GTA: Vice City advert. And I don't like Adverts that show games.

[Reply #309 on:]

That damn commercial with the woman who has a problem... She has to do dishes so she can't play cards with the rest of her family 20 feet away. So she decides to be able to do things with her family by buying expensive disposable dishes! Only adds much waste and makes the meal loose all class!

The worst part is the fact she does not ask her family to help her... it is not the 50's you don't have to do all of the housework!

[Reply #310 on:]

I hate Red Bull adverts. Poorly drawn, really bad puns (if any).

[Reply #311 on:]

There's a Taco Bell commercial that annoys me. It takes a steak quesadilla and calls it the 's-class'. A guy tells his friends how he 'upgraded' his quesadilla in his den to steak, and then continues to boast on its features, like the tactile ergnomic texture on the tortilla to the guacamole interface for fast data input.

[Reply #312 on:]

The McDonald's Advert where Ronald is racing those kids.

And the Birdseye advert with the Old Captain on an Island with loads of kids, And other guys called Chicken Gribber Grabbers.

[Reply #313 on:]

I hate any commercial with a deliberately lame-looking puppet.  It all got started a few years ago with that Pets.com sock puppet, which was never really popular but got so much exposure from commercials and that Diane Sawyer interview (!) that other companies must have thought it was popular and decided to rip it off.  There used to be more of these things, but there are still some around.  And now that darn sock puppet has risen from the dead and is spokesman for some other company.

Captain Birdseye is just screaming "paedophile", really.

[Reply #315 on:]

Old Man, Former Captain, on an Island full of Junkie Children also visted by fellow Paedophiles.

Yep. He's a Kiddie-Fiddler.

I am bumping up this thread. There is another stupid cable ad, where it says Comcast is a pig that steals everything. >

Girl: Daddy, it stole my dolls!

Boy: It stole my games!

Woman: It stole my necklace

Dad: Don't worry, I called DirecTV. they'll take care of this.

And don't think I'm joking. Those are the actual (Well, not ACTUAL) lines on that stupid AD. Get a life DircTV!

[Reply #317 on:]

The Cable/Satellite TV wars are getting pretty vicious. I'd like to get the advertising executives from both sides into a room together, and have them fight to the death.

As for commercials...I actually don't hate the Quiznos commercials. They are stupid and poitnless, but they don't annoy me. Everyone complains about them, but I can think of hundreds of more annoying commercials.

For instane, anything where they talk about a "himmy" or a "himmee" or however the hell you're supposed to spell it. My life goal is to destroy all himmies, and destroy all people involved in the making of those commercials.

[Reply #318 on:]

Are you talking about talking about the new Quizno advert? The old ones are okay, but the new one is terrible! What the hell are those things playing the guitar supposed to be!?

[Reply #319 on:]

I bloody hate the new MacDonald’s advert where their offer is 99p. I fucking gay.
