I was wanting everybody to list the most annoying t.v. commercials!!


I have one right off the top of my head, that I absolutely hate!! It is the one where the dad and his son are in a garage and the son talks to his dad about how he was raised to talk to him or something. Its a cell phone commercial! I dunno why, but this one has got to be one of the MOST annoying commercials~EVER!!!!


Now, its ya'alls turn.

Those stupid "Head On" commercials.

And the "Ultramatic Adjustable Bed" commercials which have girls in their late teens or 20's dressed up in sexy lingerie trying to act and sound all sexy/sultry and telling how great the bed is for reading, sleeping, and watching tv, with soothing heat and relaxing massage etc. etc. etc. They usually end up saying "call now you might get lucky!" (win a free bed). I actually found those commercials so annoying that I wrote to the company and asked them exactly who their target audience was because it sounded like they were targeting brothels, LOL

Another commercial that I can't stand are those "Dentye Fire" commercials where they show a girl and her boy friend in the living room with her mom and dad and her b/f takes a piece of Dentyne Fire gum and she proceeds to start ripping his clothes off while her parents are sitting there watching.

There are a few others, but those are the biggies.

Dentyne Fire Commercial

Ultramatic Bed (This one isn't as annoying as the other ones I mentioned for this product)

Head On

The sour Skittles commercial with the guy hooked up to the milking machine just sickens and disturbs me.

Theres one, but I cant even remember the product that has an alarm going off... I HATE the commercial! It always seems to wake me up!
And I agree the skittles one is very very disturbing. And so are the 7-up ones!
I'm sure theres more than I cant stand, but non popping into my head at the moment!

My mom hates the King commercials too. She said "The King" gives her the creeps.
I hate the new pepsi commercial with everyone yawning. The end where that guy spins around in his chair, the way he's looking at the camera gives me the creeps.

Oh yeah! Some of the "Body Break" commercials we have in Canada. I don't think they've changed their music in over 20 years.

Body Break 1

Body Break 2

The above 2 have a song during part of it. One that I find very annoying is where all they say is "Body Break! Get moving" and "Body Break! Keep moving" over and over again....nothing else. The hosts don't even say anything.

We've got some here in the UK where the voices are dubbed over by enthusiastic acting voices. Usually air freshener like OUST. I hat e the over-enthusiatic ones. We've got another one: A kichen cleaner called CILIT BANG. The guy on that make me want to throw my TV out the window.

In Steelers Country!
The "Viva Viagra" commerical annoys me no end.
There's a bunch of guys...probably in their early 40's or so supposedly in a band and they're singing about Viagra to the tune of "Viva Las Vegas"


First of all I can't stand Elvis...my Mom was a fan and I grew up listening to him "singing" if that's what you call it
so the tune alone is enough to make me sick to my stomach, but then there's these guys just so darn happy about to sing about the fact that they have ED


All of those ED commericals are kind of annoying to me.

Then there's the one with three 20 something's have a picinc and the water tower in the distance springs a leak and one of them whips out a maxi pad, does her best "Charlie's Angels" leap sticks the maxi pad over the leak and saves the day.

The Slim Jim commercials. I think those are stupid. Also those commercials for I think its Advantix or something, with the little puppy singing stuff. Its cute the first couple of times I see it, but then it just gets really annoying after a while.
