The bunch of guys in a remote cabin strumming guitars, singing "Viva Viagra"... hey guys, where's the women?

The Cialis commercial with the couple in separate bathtubs ... hello? The guy is playing "up periscope" in a solo bathtub?

The Garmin commercial using that Christmas song is like fingernails on a blackboard for me.

maybe it's just me, but i hate radio commercials a lot more then tv ones.

there is one for "term life insurance" and it's made out to be like talk radio where the guy has a guest on the line.

like there's really effing talk shows about life insurance. come on dude.

i might generate a nice list of tv ones tonight during the game. because espn is notorious for stupid commercials.

I know the one you mean ... its this really poorly spliced "call-in" show where they are advertising term life insurance for people who smoke or are being treated for depression ... trouble is, the example they offer is for a guy who is taking meds for high blood pressure ... in other words, a guy who used to have high blood pressure. Slicksters.

Cash4gold is so annoying.

NFL steelers gear is annoying

The airline commercial where the lady's head changes from nice to mean is annoying.

Lots and lots of annoying commercials.

The black and white Sprint ones with their CEO Dan Hesse that seem to run every commercial break (sometimes twice), or the Alltel ones with the dweeb screaming, "YOU'RE STILL A DING-DONG!"

I will punish that guy unmercifully if I ever see him on the street.

The Sprint commercials that are supposed to be like a movie preview where the chick falls in love with a phone.

And for some reason the Wendy's commercials where the cartoon Wendy is talking, something about her voice makes me want to smash my head against a wall and repeat over and over.

i've also found that other places advertise in the newspaper similiar to this way. they make it out to be like it was an article in the newspaper.

like are these advertising minds stupid? are we really gonna buy that there are call in shows about term life insurance, or about buying us mint pieces?

FAIL.

j/c. Head-On is by far the worst most annoying commercial ever made. Actually any by that company bamzoo or whatever it's called. Stupid screaming commercials make me change channels.

Bud light and Miller Light commercials.

Any beer commercial that mentions carbs...

"5 dollar, 5 dollar, 5 dollar footloooongs." Hate that commercial.

"Every senior citizen should have life alert." Hate that commercial

Cash for gold commercials.

Any commercial featuring Billy Mays.

Now that I think about it----I really hate just about every commercial. They all manipulate the clueless masses to buy their products.

How many people would care about carbs in their beer if there weren't a million commercials making a huge deal about it. Commercials trick people into thinking that they need stuff that they really don't need---its sad.

Stupid, annoying, and dumb. However, I guess the advertisers have done their part that I can identify that with Alltel. Too bad that is a garbage phone service.

That freaking commercial with that talking baby at the pc making online stock trades....when that little freaker pukes, it disgusts me!!!!




I love this commercial!

"I underestimated the creepiness of clowns!"




The puking one is pretty gross, but the other two are awesome:



That one got a huge amount of laughter at the super bowl party I was at.



I laugh every time i see that one.

I respect him simply because he doesn't speak a lick of English and lip-syncs all the words pretty much spot on while actually playing the guitar (in the ones where he plays the guitar, that is).

I agree with whoever said the Coors Light coach commercials. If anyone wants to see how you really fake an interview, head over to youtube and search for Weird Al and Eminem. That's brilliant ... the Coors commercials is a poorly done ripoff.






That one? Anyone ever try a twinkie-weiner sandwich?

That reminds me, on Sirius NFL channel, they have this Rosanne Barr Vegas realty thing. I can't think of who the announcer is off hand, one of the show hosts, but they splice him in with Rosanne's lines and it sounds so crappy and fake, not to mention, neither one sounds enthusiastic about what they are selling.

My friends didn't believe I could order in French, but when the waiter came to me, I just smiled and said....

How can you hate on the Norton furniture guy?
I loved his terrible voice and in later commercials, Darth Vader and whatnot behind him. Whatever that was about.

Thinking back, these horrible commercials we remember.
Even after years of their first airing.
They worked.

Yes dude, there is one I hear for Internet Speedway where the guy acts like he is the DJ of the station. It's so stupid, fake, and poorly done it irritates the hell out of me.

That and "I sent the diamond wedding band from my first marriage and got money the very next day!'

The Geico gecko/caveman and "Flo" from Progressive annoy me too.
