BHK1978 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Those Jeep commercials with Jeremy Renner singing. It's like dude stick to acting because you just can't sing. It is abusive to my ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysin Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I’m getting sick of commercials for the I Heart Radio festival. The radio station we are forced to listen to at work plays it twice every commercial break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHK1978 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Those Secret commercials with Camila Mendes in them. Now don't get me wrong she looks amazing in that blue dress, but the song for the commercial is just terrible. I looked it up and the song is sung by Jessie Reyez (I have never heard of her). When I listen to her sing I think to myself, "Is there anybody that could possibly think this chick's voice sounds good?" Pretty much what happens whenever I hear Yoko Ono sing.

nerodragomir1 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Can I be lazy & say any commercials that don't have Starlight kid in it? So pretty much every commercial I've ever seen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHK1978 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 All these sappy covid commercials Yes! They come across as so exploitive. Any time I hear, "In these trying times...", I feel like yelling at the television. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvdWarrior Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 <p>Not a big fan of political campaign ads. I always dread election year, because of the commercials. For one thing, I see a commercial where some random third party is just non-stop singing a guy's praises... and then the guy himself chimes in, and says: "I'm The Guy, and I approve this message."</p><p> </p><p> Well, I would hope so. If someone was giving me a glowing recommendation, telling the whole wide world just how smurfy I was, I think I'd approve too.</p><p> </p><p> The other thing is the attack ads. A whole commercial spent running down the rival candidate. Doesn't impress me. All it tells me is the other guy sucks. Doesn't even try to convince me the guy it's supposed to be advertising doesn't.</p><p> </p><p> "O not so worthy opponent thinks THIS about this, thinks THAT about that, and most shockingly of all, once voted for Roman Reigns to be named Wrestler of the Year!!!!

Jaysin Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 The Geico clogs commercial is so annoying. On the other hand, the Geico commercial with the band RATT is hysterical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappyboy Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Yes! They come across as so exploitive. Any time I hear, "In these trying times...", I feel like yelling at the television. Do I ever hear that. "In these trying times" is right up there with "hunker down" as far as phrases that send me scrambling for the next TV channel. You want to help "in these trying times"? Don't remind me the times are trying. Just offer your product as though it were any other time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in Washington but most of the TV channels I get come out of Portland, Oregon so I get inundated with ads for people and issues that I can't vote on anyway.

Same with me I live in Rhode Island but I am about ten minutes from Massachusetts and all I see are commercials for their politicians.

ZMAN Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Anything on TLC where it’s a preview for their doctor shows. Like imagine eating your Arby’s and all of a sudden you see someone’s rotten toe nail shooting out pus in every direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHK1978 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 The Microsoft "teams" commercial. It is on every show that I have watched at least once. What the hell does it even mean? We're all now living on teams? What the hell? People and their corporate jargon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CQI13 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Anything with "new normal", "in these trying times", and other such nonsense. Lexus was the only one that actually did it right, basically saying taking care of your customers is what you should be doing anyway.

FINisher Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Commercials exist?.. I don't watch any TV and I don't get ads online either. Nor do I listen to radio. Also even if I did, we have a lot less commercial breaks here than say in the US. You can clearly see a US based program by the amount of weird breaks in between the program and if they have to recap everything that just happened.

bumsfalara Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Well, there's a German commercial so most of you probably don't know the guy I'm talking about, but maybe some of you had the misfortune of hearing his weird songs on Jimmy Fallon (iirc the segment was called "I can't believe it's real" or something like that). So here's a litte background: The guys name is H.P. Baxxter and he is part of a techno band called Scooter. They are known for rather, well, lets say simple lyrics. For example, one of their songs is called "How much is the fish" (which is the song Jimmy Fallon played on his show) and in another he does nothing but scream "Hyper, Hyper". Anyways, nowadays he is the face of a commercial for an online casino. The laws regarding online gambling were changed this year in one state (basically as a test, probably won't take long until it's changed in the rest of the country), so these online gambling commercials are already everywhere. And H.P. Baxxter is already annoying af even if he's not singing, but now it feels like he's haunting me because everytime I turn on the TV I see his face screaming "Hyper Hyper" at me.
