More annoying commercials! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Let's talk about some more annoying commercials. Like the latest featuring Flo from Progressive.com. OYE!! "Power to the people!!" She SUCKS!!!! And the new "Who rules the world: men or women?" for those adult diapers and the woman says, "Women rule the world...men are just here." Okay...how about trying this...men AND women rule the world TOGETHER!!! Internet dating ads. Give me a break! The new "Six Flags" ads with that creepy old dude who used to just dance around! Firstly, I've been to Six Flags against my will a number of times...let's just say I would much rather do what all those other people are doing before the old dude pops up. You know, the stuff that's supposedly "one flag". What other ads out there bug the crap out of you?

Those free credit report commericals, and especially that dork who is in all of them.

TryN2BGood · 07-06-2009, 04:45 PM

The stupid one with Bob and his e.d.

I was going to say those, but you beat me to it. The most annoying thing is that my mother thinks he's the cutest guy in the world. She just sent me a link to his facebook. Apparently he's single and would be the perfect guy for me

brownie87 · 07-06-2009, 08:42 PM

I also hate the ones with that Barry Bostwick dude, "I looooove the sound of my voice." Funny thing is, I used to think he was funny on "Spin City", now I just find him annoying. That Free Credit geek makes me want to punch the TV screen. And how about the eternally PMSing mom from the "Roll-Over Minutes" commercials???

PunkyP0WER · 07-06-2009, 08:56 PM

the first 2 were funny - the pirate restaurant and junky car rap one - but now they're just lame.

Big C · 07-06-2009, 09:09 PM

I define an annoying commercial as one endorsing a product I don't use or have no need for.

For me, that would be the FreeCreditReport commercial- not because I can't stand the guy, but because I don't need it, use it, or understand how it works.

Free Credit Report is useless. They will give you your credit report, but you have to join their little group to get it. The government will give you your credit report for free once a year.

The sad thing is, know one knows or cares. All anyone can remember is the singing pirate...

The freecreditreport commercials have always been annoying. I have noticed that in the past couple of months commercials for diabetes supplies and cathethers aren't on tv too much.

littlebelle · 07-07-2009, 06:38 AM

free credit report.com is actually not free. Funny... isn't false advertisement illegal?

One I'm really becoming tired of: The "Justin Case" auto insurance commercials (just-in-case). ARRRGHH!

Penny Lane · 07-07-2009, 11:53 AM

Every Billy Mays(may he rest in peace) commercial. He was so annoying!

I love the freecreditreport.com commercials! Especially the first 3. I think that he is adorable!

I have to agree with you about Billy Mays. No disrespect to him but he was so loud and always shouting in those commercials. I thought it was really annoying.

brownie87 · 07-07-2009, 08:45 PM

I know. I'm sorry the man's dead and all, but he was just too loud and annoying.
