Lately, I've been very annoyed by the current Ford commercials. First because they feature two Honda owners. Secondly, because they show a woman with her hands off the steering wheel and enjoying the self parallel parking feature. Most women are terrible drivers and parkers, and Ford is making it even easier for these women to think even less about improving their lack of parking skills.
(1) The Free Credit Report one...That music drives me nuts...and the "kids" telling us about credit issues is implausible.
(2)Those Geico ads...I love Geckos...we have them on our property...but really...enough already...Plus they just annoy me and those cavemen do too. And now stacks of money...watching us with BIG eyeballs.
(3) Ally Bank a subsidiary of a car company that the taxpayers bailed out. You know; where the kid wants a pony. One gets the shaft(consumers) and the other gets a real live pony. LOL.
These are a few that bother me; COME ON...Get it off your chest...What commercials do you hate!.. But watch anyway...LOL.
I kinda like the Free Credit Report commercial (if that's the one with the three guys singing). The music is kinda cool to me.
But I hate the credit commercial where there's no one singing. I think they discuss credit scores. There's one with this girl wearing glasses, and she tries to say, "Free credit.com" three times fast, and messes it up. Then she gets "mad". She seems so fake and snarky and sneaky, like someone who'd really annoy folks.
I hate any payday loan place commercial...or titlemax type place "Get your title back with titlemax"---sure after usury-level interest charges.
It's election commercial season in my area...they have just gotten sooooooo vicious now. Nearly all of them all the time. If all you knew about a candidate was the commercials, you wouldn't vote for any of them.
where they use a patronizing nasaly voiced singer with Y2K backing to sing the Mary Tyler Moore theme song ("Love Is All Around..."). Patronizing and irritating to hear an annoying generation Y person sing an old famous song from a better era
- The Charmin Bears. Who thought a commercial about wiping their butt in the woods was a good idea?
- Whatever the commercial is where the guys scream "That's a low price!" I recognize one of the actors from movies and tv. Give the guy a gig so he doesn't have to do annoying commercials.
- All fitness infomercials and gym ads. In what gym is everyone cut and coiffed fresh out of Fitness magazine layout?
Oh I hate that one, too! Especially the one where the bits of toilet paper are stuck to the baby bear's ass--that is just disgusting. Even if it's a cartoon, lol.
Is the one for Medical Weight Loss ("the taste of things to come") a national ad? Just the Detroit area? They are truly, truly awful. Execrable. People with terrible hair and worse clothing, twirling around with their arms up, doing something resembling a dance, bragging about how NOW their husbands love them, NOW people notice them, etc. Bleh. I can't grab the remote fast enough.

We have antenna TV, so unfortunately we see the same ads over and over and over and over, mostly on RTV and THIS channels...
-the Save The Animals ad with Sarah MacLachlan's whiny singing. I used to like her song 'Angel' but now I'm sick of it. Plus I hate how it's an obvious attempt to pull on people's heartstrings and donate money.
-Cash for Gold ads esp.with Steve from the Jerry Springer show.
-all the ads for credit card debt/diabetic supplies/life insurance/Hoveround chairs/LifeAlert, etc. Obviously they think lots of old geezers are tuning in.
-TimeSharesOnly ads.
-Social Security ads with Chubby Checker doing the twist with actors dressed up like 50's teenagers.
-Structured settlement advance-cash ads.
-Progressive ads with that annoying Bumpit-wearing bimbo.
-Checkers restaurant ads.
-Ambulance-chaser ads asking if you or someone you love has XXXX disease.
-BUY THE ROOO-OOOOM! HEY! GET THE TV! BUY THE ROOO-OOOOM! HEY! GET THE TV!....ads
