Least Favorite National TV Ads

Re: Least Favorite National TV Ads

I LIKE some of the caveman ads.

"I'll have the roast duck, with the mango salsa."

"I don't have much of an appetite."

LOL...

Sure, the first couple of times was funny, after that, it just gets more stupid. They just keep on running it to the ground. GAWD!!.

The Commercial on: the caveman guy talking to his therapist. He got mad about it, & said "it's so easy that a therpist can do it"

She said, "it just wont makes any sense",

The caveman guy says "why? becuse tharpists are smart? (phone rings), it's my mother, I'll put her on spaker". (end of commercial).

What's next for the commercial for the caveman guys?.

I think, I would have prefered watching that cute gekko with an english accent lizzard.

I wouldn't mind having him as a pet.

Re: Commercials you love to hate....

That stupid Geico ads/commercial on TV with those cavemen guys!

I felt sympathy for the cavemen like I felt for the Trix rabbit.

Now stop picking on our ancestors!

Re: Least Favorite National TV Ads

I don't mind the cavemen. Though I think they've had a good run, and definitely don't think they can sustain a series.

Funny. I was just thinking of this thread when my wife called me into the living room to watch a commercial for the Barbie toy, "Tanner," the dog. This thing poops. To get the poop out, of course, you need to put it in, first. In his mouth.

I can't even begin to imagine how this toy made it to full-scale production.

Been noticing CITI credit card commericals using the same spokeperson over several commericals. Anyone know who this person is?

Re: Least Favorite National TV Ads

IMNSHO, there's something just plain icky about insinuating anything edible, not to mention sizeable, spent some time in a public bathroom stall while the loo was in use! Eeeeeuuuuwwww!

Man, I got the same icky feeling from that ridiculous ad. Why, given the montage of other random everyday locations, did the public toilet even get included -- in the script, or in the final ad? Nothing else in the ad implies that they were trying to be quirky or edgy, so it baffles me that something like that could get on the air without someone going, "Um, you know what..."

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but that cake has been flagged."

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but...

You Can't Over Love Your Underwear

The concept is funny, but the fact that the chorus replays over and over again in your head is enough to make you go nuts.

Re: Least Favorite National TV Ads

Resurrecting this thread with a current Sears Kenmore Elite refrigerator ad...the one with the lady carrying a large sheet cake on a journey between home and party. One scene has her exiting a public restroom stall balancing the cake in one hand. She arrives at the party to witness another guest removing something large from the fridge which will allow the large sheet cake to fit inside.

Re: Least Favorite National TV Ads

Double UGH. It's just awful. And weird. And... kinky. (Remember, there's a crowd of people standing next to the bed.)
That ad kinda makes me want to, you know, not go to Burger King.

... not that there's anything wrong with that.



My kids' favorite BK spot with the King was the first one we saw where he runs onto the field from out of nowhere, intercepts a pass and runs all the way for a TD ... "It's just so random," they say, laughing.
