All local car commercials! I absolutely hate anyone yelling to sell something.
Billy Mays hawking oxy-clean, car insurance and whatever else he's selling these days.
Tony Little commercials.
Any commercial showing a stepford wife happily cleaning all day long while her rugrats run screaming through the house.
Mute them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the more effective commercials are done by the Montana Meth Project. Type it in on Youtube. Warning they are NOT PC

I think all of those "Patsy" commercials are dumb.

I think they thought they could get more attention by playing the incest card. It's sad.

any teen pot smoker laughs at these commercials.
a talking dog? Seriously? that's some damn good weed if dogs are talking to you...
Rule #1 if you're making an anti-pot commercial, you can't show any pot.
cuz whenever I see a cigarette on tv, I'm reminded that I smoke and then I want a drag.
Rule #2 nothing funny, cutesy or hip... When I saw the boneless slouches on the couches I thought, heh heh heh I wanna feel like that maaaan...
Rule #3 if you must make pot seem criminal, show the worst results of being caught buying or having it, the side effects of pot are not gonna scare anyone...

In the last week or so, I've been seeing a new commercial for Extenz with a couple talking about size vs. performance. Yuck!

Is the Six Flags guy still the one that looks like Uncle Junior from the Soprano's? I kind of like those commercials.
