Spin off from the "december to remember" thread.

For me, the list is:

1. Jewelry Ads
2. Furniture Ads
3. Car/Truck Ads


Honorable mention to beer ads, except the ones that have so much eye candy you can't hate them, even if you would never drink their crappy product.

Car/Truck ads on sundays during football are [censored] unbearable.

Have you guys seen the Bud Light "fake cup of coffee 3000"? I swear, without a hint of Hyperbole I have seen it over 100 times. It's always on during football. I mean, its a pretty lame commercial to start with but they play it NON STOP. Seriously, get some new ****. I have never and will never drink a bud light in my life.

I really hated those old AT&T commercials that featured the guy from Mad About You.

I get really tired of the pill ads, especially the erectile disfunction ones. Nothing like hearing about some guy's dick that won't stand up when you're trying to eat dinner.

Did anyone have any idea there were this many people that had problems in that area? And do the drug companies really think there's someone out there that hasn't heard of Viagra?

They had this commercial for the Paper Moon (a gentleman's club) on during the World Series and it is on all the time during football.

I find them quite disturbing.

Where do you live??? I've never lived anywhere that had those ads on TV. But I can't imagine those would be the most annoying.

They're over now, but what about"........and I approved this message."

And then every idiot started putting that at the end of his commercial. I mean the local used car guy was saying, "...and i approved this message." Like it wasn't annoying and people would think it was funny. /images/graemlins/mad.gif

I can't stand the daisy sour cream ads... that song kills me. "A dollup of daisy."

There is also a local ad for "Matress Town" on the radio here. It has the most annoying song I have heard on it. Imagine 3 people singing IN FULL DISCORD for then entire commercial! urrrggg.... gives me full body shivers just thinking about it.

VA - and, yes, they do get annoying, especially when they are on almost every commercial break.

"Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!"

This commercial should come with a promotional guide to suicide.

The Noted Commercial Authority is very wise. The new commercials are mind-numbingly bad.

In a close second place, is a regional commercial in the NW for Vern Fonk insurance, to the tune of "Love machine". It looks like something some high schoolers taped for a public access show.

Christmas ads, but thanks to PVR I have commercial free TV.

Anyone from the Houston area will recognize a Gallery Furniture reference. Mattress Mac is this hairy monkey-looking guy that jumps up and down waving handfulls of money. He's gotten better and gotten a better haircut over the last 20 years, but is still pretty bad. "Gallery Furniture Really Will Save! You! Moneeeey! Very low budget too.

I don't like the ipod commercials, but I'm a shareholder, so they're +EV for me (I think).

National:
Old Navy sucks

Local:
I haven't seen one of these lately, but "Paul from the Diamond Center"...yuck.

Favorites from last year:
- Boost Mobile Phones - "Santa! Where you at?!"
- Target ad with Bun E. Carlos from Cheap Trick and Donna C. from the Donnas playing the drums.

I don't know what the ad is for because I change the channel as soon as it comes on, but it's the one where several people are sitting at a table in a restaraunt and one of them starts choking. No one helps him. I can't stand it. God, please remove this commercial.

Any one in New England will recognize 1-800-54-GIANT. I have to change the station as soon as it comes on because that song is just too goddamn addictive. I used to hate the Beldon Jeweler's radio ads because of the sappy soft rock singing, but now I just sing along because it is so bad.

Other commercials of note, those beer commercials (Miler?) with the referee interupting, it's a bad premise, and the jokes are executed quite poorly.

Look, if you don't want to see chicks with lots of stretch marks dance around wearing pasties, that's your problem.

The one where some dude says "I love this woman" in public and she gets all pissed. Then he gives her a diamond and she's like "I love this man...I love him, I love him". What a [censored] bitch.
