Annoying Commercials

kookycats · Mar 29, 2014

Are there any commercials that you find particularly annoying? I know there are a lot of local commercials in our particular areas that are really stupid and annoying. But I mean the ones that we all see nationwide. the one that comes to my mind is the Progressive Insurance commercials. I just want to throw something at Flo! What do you find especially annoying?

peaches08 · Mar 29, 2014

I saw the title and IMMEDIATELY thought of Flo from Progressive. I loathe those commercials.

Yes! We have been bombarded by the Nissan car commercials featuring Bruno Mars songs. They play several times during a show and each time one comes on I mute the sound now.

I like some of this singer's stuff, but after hearing the same song over and over, I think I'd rather chew glass than hear the song 'Locked Out of Heaven', ever again.

I hate any commercials with infants talking like adults (E trade) and/or adults talking like infants (Subway a year or two ago)

Any of the cancer treatment commercials that seem to be airing all over the place lately. Any of the Viagra / Cialis commercials. For that matter, any of the darn drug commercials! They're all annoying, IMO.

I really hate the Joe Fresh commercials, but I am assuming most people don't know the brand Joe Fresh. It's a clothing brand, sold in the grocery store mostly. Their stuff is adorable, but the commercials drive me nuts. They play the commercial, then play another commercial, then play the same Joe Fresh one again. It's usually just people modeling their clothes to annoying songs.

Also the H&R Block tax pain commercials are very annoying.

Yup. Forgot about these ones! Played way too much.

The cancer centre treatment ones are presented in such a way that it gives false hope to people. You can see they add small print about "results not typical" or something along those lines.

And ED commercials drive me bonkers.

I love Joe Fresh commercials for some reason. I fast forward through most, but when I see a Joe Fresh one, I actually stop to watch it.

About the only commercial I will watch is the Budweiser Superbowl Commercial with the galloping Clydesdales. I never watch live TV, I DVR everything and fast forward through the commercials.

What I like about them is the music and the sense of fun.

However, one of their commercials really bothers me, this one! It's not the music or the clothing. It's one of the models. The one on the far left when you are looking at the video. She's a very pretty young lady, but I just find her eyebrows to be way too much. I want to have a go at them with a weed wacker! LOL

stewball · Mar 30, 2014

The eyebrows are s bit OTT but not that bad. Somebody obviously likes them.

misty8723 · Mar 30, 2014

I find those bears with the toilet paper extremely tacky and annoying.

peaches08 · Mar 30, 2014

I don't know why they bug me, but the lumosity commercials annoy me. I think it's the overly perky actors that irritate me.

denice · Mar 30, 2014

They haven't been on very long but I am already sick of the commercials for the Chips Ahoy ice cream flavors. I don't know why, but those silly cookies drinking ice cream drinks until they switch into something else annoys me.

kordron · Mar 30, 2014

I hate any commercial that asks for my money to help a cause and makes me feel like a jerk because I haven't. I know they're all for a good cause but come on do they have to be on SO MUCH.

The absolute worst national commercials are JG Wentworth and their god awful jingle. It makes me want to sprint away from the TV, less the song gets stuck in my head.

And what's up with the Viking???

Draco · Mar 31, 2014

Old Navy's. They seem so. Fake and too happy for me.

And there was a Quiznos commercial featuring creepy hamsters with huge freaky eyes with annoying singing voices.

Now that jingle is in my head...lol! And you're right, those commercials are terrible.

I actually really loved the Quiznos commercial. The rodents were called spong monkeys. Lol.

I really wish there was a way to imbed YouTube videos using the mobile version of this site. To be continued...
