They Seem To Revelle in picking the Nastiest, Narliest, Most Disgusting Effects of Long Term Smoking. I'd show 3 or 4 examples....but Doing That Would Be Sure to get me BANNED!

^ I'll go you one further with the anti-smoking commercials:

I especially hate the graphic ones that they show on the regional sports networks with the insides of a person's body (the heart beating, ect.). I don't need to see that while eating, thank you.:barf:

I also can't stand the AARP commercials and health care/ funeral insurance commercials that air on Me-TV and Antenna TV. They just come off as too smarmy IMO. :rolleyes:

I saw a commercial yesterday for a clinic to give balding people back their hair,I switched to another channel and saw a commercial where this dude is taking off all the hair from his chest with a product called NoNo. Never knew hair was so valuable.

It's worse here in Cleveland, since Progressive is one of the biggest companies in our area, and of course, bought the naming rights for Jacobs Field at the beginning of 2008, so now the ballpark is named after them. :mad: Plus, there are a bazillion Progressive ads with Flo not only on TV but on the radio during the Indians games, and it gets old reaaaaaaaaal fast. GRRRRRR...:mad: (Not to mention that I once interviewed for a position at Progressive and didn't get it...yes, a few sour grapes.)

Why do all the commercials have to have people smiling in them ? I saw a lady scrubbing a toilet with some kind of cleaner and she was grinning like The Cheshire Cat. I doubt if anyone has ever smiled while cleaning a crapper.

How about the commercial for Choice Hotels where the guy says bada-book bada-boom? That commercial was popular when it first came out but then it got so annoying after the first few times you watch it. Another commercial that gets overplayed and also very annoying is the Holiday Inn Express commercial where it shows a guy getting out of bed and pumping up his fists like he's getting ready for a boxing match and then the commercial ends with the guy getting his breakfast and then cheering with his friends watching a football game. I don't know why this commercial became popular but it gets annoying after the first few times

That guy seems like a wannabe Anthony Bourdain without the food.

And Jeff Goldblum used to do such good stuff.



Anybody remember a computer commercial from 20-odd years ago with some garage band performing a song called "She's Online?" I don't remember if it was for Apple, or Prodigy or whatever.

30 years ago there was also a commercial for some ice cream pops shaped like Disney cartoon characters with a lame rap jingle where the kids refer to them as "pops with personality." Anyone else remember that?

Commercials that (thankfully) aren't on the air now but unfortunately remain stuck in my head:

The HeadOn commercial from the mid-2000s: "HeadOn, apply directly to the forehead! HeadOn, apply directly to the forehead! HeadOn, apply directly to the forehead!"

The T-Mobile commercials with the cute brunette designed to imitate the Apple commercials highlighting the desirability of its products vs. the undesirable competition, except that T-MOBILE IS A CELLULAR NETWORK PROVIDER, NOT A HARDWARE DEVICE MAKER! The girl might be attractive, but she wasn't nearly attractive enough to distract from the annoying nonsensicalness of those ads. Every time I saw her face, I wanted to throw a shoe at the screen!

This got into a General Sitcoms thread, but I had to add it here, too: the Hershey's Kisses Christmas ad which plays We Wish You A Merry Christmas, with the wrapped kisses as bells.

The ad is a classic, but they HAD to spoil it this year with live action at the end, which seems to have no purpose other than to spoil the whole ad. (The original ad is still around, and they do manage to play it once in awhile.) BOOOO to Hershey's for not leaving well enough alone!

That C'mon everybody ad for S'mores is played constantly on TV Land in the evening, and probably also on HGTV. I'm getting sick of it.

Those LM ads make me long for the jingle they had in, I believe, the mid- or late '80s that went "America believes in Liberty, Liberty Mutual Insurance" with a visual of a yellow flag with the LM logo waiving.

Most make my list because of repetition, but there are certain spots that make me change the channel/turn off the TV -

1. Any Liberty Mutual ad
2. Medication ads, especially those for which the side effects are worse than the condition/symptom it was created to address
3. Medicare insurance ads
4. Most fast food ads

I apologize if I posted this before (I checked a few pages), but the various women sitting on the toilet, declaring that women poop (who knew?). I don't even know what they're selling--just reach for the mute button!

Yeah, that seems to have replaced the talcum powder. We'll probably be hearing those for years.

I think all spam ads are annoying.. But I do like 80s and earlier ads if they are on a VHS tape I have.... It reminds me of when the world was still good........

Seeing old ads from the 60s etc. reminds you how much better they were then. Of course attorneys didn't advertise back then (they just chased ambulances and didn't bug you on TV), and there was no such thing as an infomercial-style ad.

Camp Lejeune is all over MeTV and Antenna TV, too. We'll probably be stuck with them for years, like the talcum powder and mesothelioma ads.

The charity beg-athon ads which are all two minutes long, all want $19/month and all offer a blanket as an enticement. Is there some sort of collusion going on?

When they participate in expensive modes of advertising, it makes me think they really don't need the cash.

While I'm glad that Joe Namath, Jimmy Walker, and William Devane have found gainful employment, the Medicare enrollment spots are starting to bother me.

OK - they're *really* annoying. :(

It's enrollment time for Medicare so you end up with more than one in each break.

I agree about the $19 a month ads for ASPCA, hospitals, old ladies overseas, etc. I always think they're just using the money to buy more ads.

Legit charities are happy to receive ANY contribution--these people want indefinite monthly access to your VISA card.

COZI TV recently added Bones to their weeknight lineup. I thought I would get back into that show and I started tuning in this week. Unfortunately COZI also seems to be showing a Shriner's ad in every single commercial break. :mad:

I am watching another channel tonight.
