Most annoying commercial?

For me at the moment its the Dunkin Donuts commercial with Rachel Ray saying "DELISH" I cant stand it!! LOL

So what bugs you on tv?

The Gieco caveman?
The Head-On commercials?
The lizard?

Lets have a laugh!

OMG hands down the HEAD-ON one. Even the that says it's annoying, I mean, where did they drag these people off the street from? The one woman looks like a homeless person that has her hair all ratted up. Scary!

I hate the lawyers commercials during the day..Lowell the Hammer stanley, we will fight for your rights..UGH. There is an annoying one in WV where the stupid lawyer sees Lincoln, Washington, etc in prison..and he asks why. They said they are tied up in legal hold ..then the lawyer says he will spring them free to go where they belong..UGH! He also has a flying car..sooo dopey.

The one where the girl goes to a lunch line and the lunch lady is pointing out the foods..fried mushrooms, fried potatoes, fried fish, etc. The woman rolls her eyes..then climbs into a giant bottle of special K vitamin drink ? and dives in..dumb.

Lastly the pet commercials..where the clerks play with the dog toy and switch back to normal people. Then a customer asks if a dog will like the toy and the clerks get all stupid happy about it..

LOL! I like these, but then again, I'm very much into pets. I think most pet commercials are cute.

JG Wentworth! UGH! His voice is so "drone-y".

Lawyer commercials around here - I can't remember the name of the lawyer, yet I've seen the commercial a thousand times. I just remember the catch phrase - "One calllllllllll...that's allllllllll". GAH!

OMG just thought of another. Two Brothers - they buy houses. They parody their ads off television show series and man are they BAD!!

The GEICO cavemen. They actually make me feel a little sick to look at them and they're so annoying and just stupid. I can't stand them.

the one that drives me crazy is for a minivan. The dad is building a tree house for the kids, but they prefer to play in the van. CARS ARE NOT PLAYGROUNDS.

And the Caveman one where he is at the shrink holding a small caveman doll and she says "roll play" and cavey dude says, "whats your name" "He doesnt say anything cause hes a doll" So stupid, its funny.

That one! That is sooo horribly annoying. What a stupid idea that was. The other commericals I can't stand are the ones for the law firm I work at! They are knockoffs from the GEICO commericals where a celebrity takes for the regular person. Ugh. They are dreadful. It's actually embarrassing and believe it or not, we get lots of telephone calls from people complaining about the commercials. My boss, however, thinks their just great.

LMAO at the Head-on "homeless woman." What is that about? They can't find a normal, well groomed person?

ETA: I do, however, LOVE the cavemen. They are a riot. I've read they are actually making a sitcom based on the Cavemen.

that head on commercial is the most annoying. Drives me nuts. I think some of the others are so stupid, but they do not annoy me.
Some are just so stupid that they are funny. I like the caveman personally. It is stupid but it is funny.
But I LOVE the Gecko. He is just too cute.

We have a lawyer commercial here for Brown and Crouppan (or something like that). They come off like the mob - " Some day a guy on a cell phone changes your life forever. That's not acceptable. We fix problems. We've collected over a third of a billion dollars, not million, billion. See, we fix problems." or their other one "If you took X drug (they have several) you may be entitled to compensation. Call Now" They come off as really sleazy.

I currently can't stand that Racheal Ray/Dunkin' Donuts commercial mentioned in the base note.

I also can't stand any of the erectile dysfunction commercials - "Bob", Levitra, Cialis, etc. Please consult a physician if your erection lasts longer than 4 hours.... Geez, is nothing off limits? And I just noticed that they've added to this, that "to prevent permanent damage"....just to make sure guys knew what the risk was... I don't really feel like explaining this to my kids...grrr...

I don't like the one with the massive spit ball coming out of the tuba and hitting the guy! Yuck - it physically makes me sick at my stomach to see it come on.

Head On is bad, but the cavemen are worse...and they have different "flavors" for the cavemen. I think they wore the gekko into retirement.

the mucinex commercial is annoying as well.

Make your period a happy period....I don't remember who does the commercial but HELLO! you can't have a happy period...EVER! I turn the channel. I hate any ED commercials or any that time of the month commercials. We don't have dunkin donuts so I haven't seen the one you are taking about. The cavemen are getting old but they don't annoy me like the others do

Oh my gosh, where do I start?!?
The cavemen.
All the lawyer ones.
That idiot Nazonex bee.
That car that falls apart.
Head on, of course.
Most vehicle ones.
Any that should be shown after 10:00 pm and aren't.
I know there must be more!

Ok people, I have a commercial that should make you laugh! It's for Big Dog Motorcycles! Warning, if you have delicate sensibilities then don't look at it.

Big Dog Motorcycles

Btw, I too hate the Head On commercial... it reminds me of something they played after The Prices Right in the 1970s!

On a different note, has anyone seen the new McDonalds commerical. I almost spit my drink out I laughed so hard.

Older man creeps into the barn where the chickens and rooster is asleep, and starts Cock-A-Doodle-Dooing like the rooster and wakes him up....OMG that is funny. Rooster looks at him and he goes, Lets see how you like it...Oh that was funny.

The one that just freaks me out every single time is a Long John Silvers commercial where they are out fishing or whatever and bring in a huge net to the boat and then they drop hundrends of square fish that are all flopping around.....I mean ewwwww! That one grosses me out bad.
We have another commericial here that is for a hospital that is local that plays a sad song and shows the story of this little 7 or 8 yr old boy dying and then it shows his mom all crying but the point of the commercial is how the mom donated the boys organs to save other lives. I know its for a good cause but that commercial makes me soooo sad and I had seeing it!

I saw one earlier that made me immediately think of this thread.

It was for a local dentist who makes cheap dentures. He's got different people on there talking about what a great job he did on their new teeth and one lady says "Steak, corn on the cob, tacos, it's all good now"

Excuse me for being daft, but I don't get the tacos part of her statement. I get that steak and corn on the cob may be difficult to eat with dentures, but TACOS?

Same here!! Every time it comes on I think it is one of those Saturday Night Live spoof commercials.

I hate the Head On commercials, too. DH loves it, as all the guys at work have a joke about it

I used to just stare with my mouth open completely not believing what I was hearing/seeing. Now, I think the people are portrayed so dorky, I laugh every time. The "longer than 4 hours...."...hehe, I can't say what I think of that part. I can definately understand though, why you wouldn't want your children to see those commercials.

The new Pepto one. It's not people now, grabbing their mouths, chests, stomachs and rear ends, it's huge creatures. I can't remember if it's right, because I essentially tune the commercial out in my head, but the 50 foot woman, King Kong maybe? Godzilla? All doing that silly grabbing body parts during the song.

Ugh. What made them thing this commercial would be any better with creatures than it is with people?
