That commercial makes me crazy. The ad agency should be shot. No, wait, they should tortured and then killed. The torture could be playing that commercial over and over until they beg to die.

That should take about 10 minutes.

ANY commercial that makes you remember the product... either good or bad... has done its job.

It's no accident that this spot is annoying and redundant.

That's true, but I find the commercial so annoying that I would never buy the product. So, yes I'll remember the product - remember not to buy it. :)

Any and all commercials played during the Price Is Right. Those friggin things only apply to people whose age is nearing three digits. Seriously, don't more college kids watch that show than old fu(kers do?

Also any Centennial commercial. Blue shirt advisor my ass! those guys are retarded. I also agree with Qwetty...Joan Cusack should be forced to, well, something. She annoys the crap out of pretty much everyone.

Joan Cusack should be forced to publicly admit that her brother got ALL the talent in the family, promise to quit "acting" for good, including commercials, and go do something she's good at - if there actually is anything...

Oh, and the PSA with the little girl being carefully strapped into the SUV, and the Mom lights up a cigarette. . . .

MY GOD! THE GIRL IS GONNA GROW UP TO BE A HORRIBLY DISFIGURED SERIAL KILLER WITH BAD LUNGS, BECAUSE MOM SMOKED WITH HER IN THE CAR! OH, THE HUMANITY!!!

I don't think so.


Yeah, and the Glasser & Ebbs spots (though they are tailored to each market). Atr the mention of G & E, the senior lawyer spills his ice. " My gawd! the last lawyer we had go against those guys? We found him naked out in the woods, babbling, and wetting himself! Not Glasser & Ebbs!"

It's time for 91.5 to have the kids make some new spots, too.

oh, and the really old commercials that have recently ben re-run, but are still crusty....

Life Alert. the remote you wear around your neck, and apparently if you fall, you instantly call someone from the early 90's.

and it's endorsed by C. Everett Koop.

that's about as current as Oliver's Army's tetanus shots...

as an aside, i think if Colonel Sanders and Abraham Lincoln had a baby, it would look like CEK.

Geez.. a guy steps on ONE rusty nail.


I get a kick out of the smoking PSA's too.

I should try and find a pic of my mom at a party, Martini in hand, smoking a Pall Mall, while pregnnant with me.

didn't effect me none.

theres a commercial (one of those 1minute or less infomercials) that i see some times that is soooo bad. It is for some hair growth product and it lies so bad. It shows before and after pictures for like 30 seconds, prolly 5 of them. It usually sas something like "2 Months later!" , "4 weeks later!!!!" on teh last one the lettering is real small and it said "60 seconds later!!!!!!"... umm no. the guy goes from bald to a full head of hair... ri diculous
