Worst commercials

[psr13]

I despise one of the free credit ones. The one witht the guy and his girlfriend. He says that if he knew she had bad credit he wouldn’t have married her. Ummm, then he doesn’t really love her.

Everyone believes in something. What do you believe in? Satan? Gaia? Karl Marx?

 

[Chris_LaRock]

Commercials are funny, aren’t they? They use sex to sell toothpaste, deodorant, and all kind of non-sex related products. But viagra commercials show men and women planting plowers and riding bikes. The only time they don’t use sex to advertise is when the product is of a sexual nature.

I guess you’re here to…

What? Show the world you don’t believe in God? You should be at home anywhere; the world is filled with pagans now.

Anyway, it would be shorter and more effective to list the commercials I actually like.

I used to like the Hungry Man ones where the guy who ate only three carrots got blown away by a storm.

 

[twosweetgirls]

Oh gads, anything with Billy Mays. Cripes, is there anything the man doesn’t endorse? I really had to laugh when I saw his commercial endorsing health insurance–while he’s endorsing orange-glo and hercules hooks.

Those Geico and Progressive commercials. OMGosh, I change then channel when these come on. I don’t know which one I dislike the worst–the caveman, the gecko or Flo.

Oh, and that young guy at the end of the Proactive commercials. The one who’s being over-hung by a blonde stroking his face, while he give us his best smoldering look at the camera. Puh-leeze.

Is doing such a thing a problem ??

I only give my point of view within the CAF-rules !!

You should be at home anywhere; the world is filled with pagans now.

Would committing suicide be a good solution for me ??
To be honest , I don’t understand your question !?!?

About your commercial ,
nothing I could find at youtube

I also used to really like the ad with the dog driving the pickup truck straight into a pond because he was chasing some ducks.

Was that a Geico ad?

Of the current crop of ads there’s one for this men’s shampoo or some such, and there’s a centaur taking a shower with it. I found that funny.

 

[Ruthie]

That dog is a Bluetick Coonhound! (I have one.) He’s been in many ads. He’s good! I admire his trainer; they’re not easy to train.

Dog ads I hate: the dog food one, “You’re thinking Beneful…” Urgh.

I miss Spuds McKenzie! She (Yes, she) was a show champion and a very mellow Bull Terrier. (A rarity.) Her name was Evie. I met her breeder at a dog show; she was wearing a shirt that said, “I sold Spuds McKenzie!” Nice lady. (You guessed it - we also have two bullies.)

Coonhounds and Bull terriers - for my sins!

God bless us all,

Ruthie

 

[Sailor_Kenshin]

Bull terriers are the cutest dogs on the planet.

 

[twosweetgirls]

What’s wrong with you guys?? Everyone knows that Labradors rule.

 

[Sam_Maloney]

Bull terriers are the cutest dogs on the planet.

NO, MY bull terrier [Maxine] is the cutest dog on the planet.

Everyone else’s is just a close second.

She’s pretty mellow, lets the min pin dominate, loves to sleep in peoples laps, but also a little unpredictable in her tastes. She just hates my uncle, for no apparent reason.

I find all commercials for “intimate” products annoying, whether feminine hygiene or Viagra but the worst is one for (how to put this?) an aid to female solitary sin that fits on one’s fingertip.
. . .
OH! Almost forgot – birth control commercials, nova ring (yechh!), patches, &c, &c. Once they finish listing the side effects I figure that if I were a woman I’d just get an aluminum bat to clobber any guy who got too close. Side effects may include fractured ribs and skulls – for him.

Oh, how I long for the old days when you couldn’t even say the word “pregnant” on TV !

. . . Humor will get my attention, though. I even like the commercials for a certain “male enhancement” supplement, starring “Bob.” But I confess to liking certain kinds of bawdy and vulgar humor.

God bless us all,

Ruthie

I confess to also finding the “Bob” commercials quite funny.

How about those silly Free Credit Report.com commercials with that guy singing all the time. My fiance and I have learned to just mute the tv when ever commercials come on…

I wish the Free Credit Report.com commercials would be *broadcast * muted.

In my area, they have started with homosexual dating site ads on TV.

I haven’t seen these yet, and I live in Brooklyn!

VW is running a commercial telling people they don’t have to have babies just so they can “enjoy German engineering” I guess the idea being that people think they don’t qualify for their SUV w/o kids so they are having children just so they can buy this model. Of course, it’s a supermodel type explaining this & the wife is not.
:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I HATE this commercial.

. . .Those Geico and Progressive commercials. OMGosh, I change then channel when these come on. I don’t know which one I dislike the worst–the caveman, the gecko or Flo. . .

The caveman, but Flo is a very close second. I do, however, love the gecko!

I hate all “male enhancement” commercials. I just don’t want to hear or think about any malfunctioning, uh, male parts. JUST GO TO THE DOCTOR!!!

I also hate feminine hygiene product commercials - we all know what they are, we all go to the drug store to buy them. Anyone who doesn’t know about them must live in a cave… and if you live in a cave you can’t be watching TV.

I think it goes without saying that *everyone * hates the Head On commercials, and I agree, but, the ABSOLUTE WORST COMMERCIAL currently airing is the Mirena IUC commercials.

In case they don’t air where you live, with a background including a home, three children and a loving husband (I hope), there is a woman saying:

A lot can happen in five years - get a promotion, buy a house, coach soccer, learn French, move to Memphis, go skiing, plant a garden, finish a book, finish a sentence! But if your plans don’t include another baby, consider a contraceptive called Mirena. . .

The commercial continues with a short explanation of how it works, and thankfully at the end it says it can be removed if you decide to have another child.

The first time I saw it, I thought it was such a nice, “feel good” commercial until it got to the phrase, “**ut if your plans don’t include another baby…” and I was horrified. Basically, the commercial is showing all the wonderful things that can happen in a woman’s life - except a baby.

How sad. How very sad.

And the thing about the Free Credit Report commercials is that the report isn’t free. You have to enroll in their “Triple Advantage” in order to get your free credit report. So I not only bug on the actual commercials, I also despise that this important little tidbit is hardly mentioned.

 

[Kat876]

Well of course the head on commercial is extremely annoying! But the plot behind it? They want to give you a headache so you’ll buy the product!

Watching the new Burger King commercials with the awful music and the Simon and Garfunkel parody is like listening to fingernails scratch chalkboard.

I haven’t see these yet, but the commercials showing the guy in the big Burger King mask really creep me out.
