Rant and rave about tv commercials

Recommended Posts

TV advertising is usually stupid in an attempt to attract attention and make us remember their product...and we do only to talk about something when we fly off the handel

 

so let your anger pour out I think the most dummist ones are the pizza pop commercials (particular the robot ones) where a chemical filled pasty explodes with the force of C4 with

 

the slightis aggravation. first of all I don't want something that can blast my jaw straight off and at the most unexpected times. If terrorist run out gun powder to make road-side bomb

 

there just going to use this.

 

and the end slogan, Pizza pop's are loaded, what they fail to tell you is that there full of plastic explosive.

 

now go and make fun of bad advertising like mad magazine.

Not sure which commercial you're talking about, but it reminds me of the first few Syke commercials. They put a can of Syke (some kind of energy drink?) in a microwave to "see what happens". The problem is how we are legally required to post a disclaimer telling people not to try this at home, because yes, some people are dumb enough to do it.

 

I'm also getting really sick of the "freecreditreport.com" one. Probably because the songs are just too catchy and hearing it once means it replays time, and time again in my head throughout the whole day.

 

Surely I'll think of more, this is one topic I constantly become angered by, and I watch a lot of TV. Thanks for this thread!

The most annoying advert I've ever seen is the Cadburys Advert (with the freaky eyebrows). The most annoying thing is that it's actualy a good advert with an amazing song. But it just gets on my nerves dispite the face that I love it... If that makes sense to anyone then kudos to you.

I'm also mad at all those Viagra commercials. Old men it's natures way to tell you to stop screwing and sit in a rocking chair and wait for death. :verymad:

The ageing Sophocles reckoned that getting old and losing the urge was like being unchained from a lunatic (and he wasn't talking about his wife):D.

Oh yeah, that reminds me...

 

Male enhancement, you know a few years ago it was hard to believe that a single pill could make a man larger. A pill that can make a man larger? *huh* But now Extenz has sold over 1 million capsules around the world, that's because the key ingredient in Extenz is scientifically proven to increase that "certain" part.....

 

Oh my god! Yes unfortunately I can recite the entire commercial from memory, yes I will sign anyone's petition to have it removed from TV once and for all.

Palpenious, I know that one all too well & I agree fully

 

Some others I don't like...

the SHAMwow commercial that guy's voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me

 

any commercial that uses that guy that goes for volume (loudness) usually has a beard

 

he's been in a few Oxyclean, orangeglow & others
