agree - 99% of those vehicles will never see anything but pavement. "Hey folks, just buy the idea of being rugged and outdoorsy - then hit the mall, the sofa and call it a day"

every commercial where i need to see you and your kids at home or just your kids at home. what the hell do your kids have to do with me or the product?
every laundry commercial where the laundry room in the house is the size of manhattan loft. giant machines, cork boards, a bench for sitting.

And then when you actually see those vehicles on the road, they are swerving left and right to avoid minor potholes and manhole covers.

That's probably the least annoying thing about that abomination of a commercial. I want to throat jab that lady.

The part that annoys me is that the wife saw the appointment and assumed it was a couples dinner. Then, when the kids show up, she's dragging HIM out of the shot like it's his fault.

I'm still trying to figure out just how much time it actually saved by using her phone to start the car? They act like it was a 30 min time saver.

It's such a millennial commercial. Let's do everything through our phone/watches instead of actually talking with each other to remove ambiguity.
Kudos though for thinking such people actually meet in person.

so, a couple with no kids is friends with a couple with 2 young kids. ok

And what did she do with all that fancy food she cooked for the meal that was never served? That's a lot of leftovers.

Actually the couple outside heading for the car is the couple leaving the kids (black top/ponytail vs white top dumb lady).The part that annoys me is that the wife saw the appointment and assumed it was a couples dinner.

Some anti-smoking group here in Minnesota is running ads on Spotify telling me to check out how smoking costs me $500-ish every year even if I don't smoke.
Now what the #### am I supposed to do with this information when I get it? Walk up to a smoker, punch them in the face, and demand my five hundred bucks?

Fwiw, my kids do some acting...just about every call for commercials during covid has been to be shot at home with the family- I think to avoid liability.

A pack a day smoker spends over 2 grand a year on smokes. Sounds like us non smokers are getting a pretty good deal.

The Emu filter one is okay. ?? It makes the kids laugh, which I'll take right now.

I don’t think I’ve seen a commercial for quite some time that makes me want to have kids LESS.Every mornin' at half past six...

Along with the lack of lung cancer, COPD, not being able to walk 12 feet without needing a rest, etc....
Beach volleyball ones were funny too, especially the 2nd one were the Emu sits on the ball. The rest were make me want to stab myself annoying

I don't know which part of this thread makes me happier, when someone validates my own hatred of a commercial by posting about it, or when there are six or seven posts about a commercial I realize I am lucky enough to have never even seen.

This has likely been covered but... any company that still uses the most overplayed refrain in the history of music (nah nah nah nah, hey hey hey, goodbye) in their commercials should be allowed to be legally firebombed with impunity.

The apple watch one with the guy going on and on about where and when he wants to take his echocardiogram. That's the big selling point? Who gives a ####? Also, why is he sitting in a boat in a tiny area of open water in the middle of a frozen over lake/river at the end of the commercial?

GMC seems to have only 2 commercials, which are playing over and over again. The "nah nah nah nah" one and the Christmas one "one for you and one for me."

Weird scat-pat-pat-a-booey song while the dumbest woman in history drops her iphone across 4-5 city blocks onto a pile of sand.
This commercial makes me wish Steve Jobs would die.

I always love ads where companies make their best customers look like the dumbest people ever. Makes me want to buy their product.

Yeah, that Apple one is really surprising. I thought it was a competitor doing a spoof on Apple or a cheap copy. How'd such an annoying thing get the go-ahead from Apple?
They’ve had a run of bad ones. The AirPods one with the dude doing double Dutch everywhere is terrible. I’m probably in the minority but the “Shot on IPhone” ones make me cringe as well. That’s just what we need is more self-obsessed TikTok’ers shooting videos.

The apple commercial needs to removed fast.
also, there are some airbnb commercials airing that have this awfully sad music and photo montages. i think they are promoting fun times, but i have no idea who these people are, why they went to this place and everything seems out of context. they have one with alot of golden retriever moments, did they rent the house cause the dog has a bucket list? awful

I call that the sad dog ad. Some awful music to boot. Hard to believe they think that makes people want to rent a bed and breakfast.

someone else gets it!!! is the dog dying? is that one guy recovering from cancer? is this a fun time or, seriously, a bucket list item? i simply don't get the music. i'll stay in a hotel.

I just envision those guys and their agent sitting around a phone for the last 20 years waiting for the phone call that tells them their song is going to be used in something.
Here's a good commercial. My wife and I were not paying attention and I think we both have whiplash from looking at the TV. https://youtu.be/HoYwy7TLEcc

I saw this for the first time recently during March Madness. Didn't realize it's a year old, but what a great commercial (and song).

The insurance company that literally does nothing but crappy ads (where they clearly have gone to the trouble of hiring a writing team to developed every single annoying character) really should have its own thread if not subforum. Have never entertained buying insurance from them on that basis alone. How many TVs have been punch when the 3-letter-word woman appears on the screen?

Not wearing pants
What's up with the Ron Burgundy lookalike with the zoom camera pointed down at his pant-less junk? At least his Folgers made him wake up to the fact that it was not his late night perv session anymore.

Any commercial that randomly just says the name of the company at the end.
Blah blah blah.. blah blah... blah blah blah... blah blah.......Hilton.
I imagine there's some advertising algorithm that states the consumer needs to be reminded at the very end of what the spot was all about. But it's dumb.
Hilton.

Not sure if I said this before buy every single commercial that is basically two bros who went to college with each other doing a Shark Tank style pitch "I'm Chad and I'm Thad and we sell <insert mundane product here that they pretend to have revolutionized>"with some weak paint my numbers appeals to join their cool kids community - there's like a zillion of these and they are all terrible and annoying
