Annoying TV Ads in Your Region?

#1 Post by Byakuya San »

No matter where you go, bad/annoying television commercials will follow you (or so it seems). So, what is the most annoyoing commercial in your region? For me it's "Bernie & Phyll's [furniture]-Quality, Comfort, and Price (That's Nice!)". I'm sure there are more that I can't think of...and hopefully that's a good thing!

They advertise UK gold or something now as well.
The rage it causes is not expressible by words.

I don't like any commercial where someone steals something and thinks it is cute. Stealing food from a child, or the child stealing from the parent, then they laugh and think it is so funny.

It isn't regional, but those pepto bismol commercials where the people dance around holding their back ends. :roll:

Or those commercial for dirty mouth, I don't even know the product, but the commercial are gag-worthy.

the ad for this place: http://www.hutchesonford.com/ runs in Rolla all of the time and it drives me batty! So does the Denny Ford commercial...basically I cant stand local rolla ads! They have anoying music, are played almost ever commerical break (the sames ones over and over) and they have people who cant act their way out of a paper bag!

otherwise on the radio I have the shane company jewerly commercial memorized...as does just about anyone from St. Louis. I can seriously do the end of the commercial word for word (the part where the talk about their hours of operation, their location and website lol. its been nearly the same for most of my life. they reciently tried to change it a little bit but only switched around a few words. its still pretty much the same).

There are dozens in my neck of the woods. I watch Fox before 8 PM, you see, and that's when you get all the lawyer commercials. One of them features a really bad CGI tiger, and the tagline "Get the tiger on your side!"
The current one for Daryl Isaacs("The Heavy Hitter's the way to go, call two-five-five-three-oh-oh-oh!") has him talking to a dog. Daryl Isaacs never closes his mouth. It's creepy.
Then there's the one with the same background music over and over and over. "dundundun BOMMMM dundundun BOMMMM."
And then there's one for a furniture place that thinks you can sing anything and that makes it better. "Guaranteed financing" does not sound good when sung, I'm sorry.

Theres this one car dealership thats ended every commercial with the same annoying jingle done by the same annoying kid for at least 300 years.
"Century III Chevrolet, Lebanon Church Road, Pittsburgh! Minutes from the mall!"

Theres also a law firm run by a husband/wife team or something, and the entire commercial is shot badly, with horrible quality graphics in the background of fiery car crashes, explosions, burning homes, and all these terrible things. Then either the husband or wife talks quite seriously about how they can help if you have died a wrongful death or have arthritis.

Cant forget Edgar Snyder either. "Theres never a fee unless we get money FOR YOU!" Then he points dramatically at the camera. Hes been doing that since I was little, and probably before.
