Commericals you hate

7th Heaven Ads. They tried to hype up episodes where all that happened was some minor problem.

"OH, MY GOD! We're gonna protest culture in the Middle East because it's cruel to women!"
(Someone running dramatically)

It was a terrible show to begin with; the ads didn't help.

I have to agree with you. The 311 quit smoking commercials, Optimum Cable, they all suck.

I bet you've seen these 2:

Yeah, I have. And I've got to say those commercials are the prime definision of pointless and annoying. I see those every day and I'm waiting for them to end! Who cares if they sing and have, I guess you could say, 'smooth' dance moves, it doesn't make me want to watch it more, it makes me want to turn it off.

I also hate time warner cable ads making fun of the phone company and DirecTV ads for Pay Per View. They are annoying because they come at the wrong times ( 1-2 seconds before ad break)

I actually think the commercial that makes fun of Direct TV, the one with the guy saying that Direct TV doesn't like puppies, are a little funny. It's only that one, though, that I like.
The others; Forget about it.

Well, it can't be as bad as the one with AT&T and their commercial with this guy dressed up as an envelope and he's collecting money because it's time to pay the cable bill. He's such an annoying asshole! I'd like to kick him right in his zipcode!!

Then of course any cell phone commercial. Especially Alltel with that damn wizard! Or Nextel because I can't stand that stupid little beep the phone makes everytime you press the button to talk, and during the commercial they press the button about every 2 seconds, they call it the Nextel Chirp. I call it a f****** retard noise! That's why I don't even own a cell phone. : D I'm a fan of The Biggest Loser and it's a 2 hour show. Anyway, one time I actually counted each time they had a cell phone commercial and they had one time 14 of them in 2 hours. Seriously, don't these people having anything better to do than talk on the phone 24/7/365?

DING-DONG!!!!!!

"Good morning, have you head about the FIBER????"

I have Verizon FiOS, and I shut my TV when I see "the FIBER".

I think they took it off the air because Time Warner was lying about the satellite dish thing. My grandparents have Time Warner in Manhattan, NY.

Now that the "FIBER" is gone, Cablevision better take off "877-393-4448".

And the MetroPCS "hello, hello, hello" commercials in Florida are the worst. I go down there a lot, and every stinking time I put on the TV I hear "hello, hello, hello".

That's the problem Lapras, once they get a commercial they run it into the freakin' ground and they don't know when to stop showing the damn thing.

Here are some MetroPCS commercials. The same ones have been on many South FL TV Stations like WSFL, WFOR, and WTVJ for a good 2 years. MetroPCS doesn't EVER make anew commercial. Even Optimum makes a new one once in a while.

EDIT: I can't find it online, but you know about the 877-TRIPLE-PLAY commercial, metfan5695? It's the one with the dating game and this lady needs TV, Internet, and Phone, and in the end she finds out she can get them all with Optimum. I hate it.

I hate the ones that promote the local stores around my area because they repeat it so much, sometimes 4 times in a row!!!!! GRRAAAHHHH *goes into a rage because it just happened again*

Anyways.....yeah some of the Time Warner ads are funny especially when they have some of the Brewer players on them. =P

I was watching my Grandmother's Dish Network satellite TV and I saw a commercial for Trojan latex condoms with a character called Trojan Man. I can't stand that commercial. They need to keep things such as tampons, maxi pads, condoms, erectile disfunction drugs, and KY sex lube private and discreet. These commercials wern't even on TV years ago.

What?! You don't like Bob and his erectile dysfunction?!?!?!

YES! That was the WORST Opitimum Triple Play commercials, and the most cheesiest and dorkiest one at that, which I didn't think was possible. Actually, which Optimum Triple play commercials do you think are more worse then the others, Lapras87? When compared to the most recent ones and the first ones?
When I watch those commercials I just blankly stare at the TV and think, wow, what the heck were they thinking?! I mean seriously, when are people just gonna get with the freakin' program?!

TOP 4 WORST OPTIMUM COMMERCIALS

No. 1 Worst:

The first 877-393-4448 commercial with the Puerto Ricans.

No. 2 Worst:

They new and "improved" 877-393-4448 commercial with the singing ladies.

No. 3 Worst:

The 877-TRIPLE PLAY dating game

No. 4 Worst

The Paper Salesman one.

Aldi ads are annoying. They show people dancing like dorks in a grocery store and are awful.

Well, I found another one today that I can't stand. It's those annoying V8 commercials where someone doesn't want to eat their vegatables so then a person hits them on the forehead saying they could have had a V8. I think that sucks!! If someone hit me on the head like that I'd punch them in the head.

yeah. i agree. they are stupid like this one:

Ah, the guilt technique. It's as if our parents were writing the ads.

Here's another MetroPCS commercial (it's the worst one)

EDIT: The Rick Roll was a joke. I got bored. Sorry guys.

No comment on the V8 commercials, they pretty much explain themselves.

Ok. This is the WORST AD EVER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Is3icfcbmbs

Channel 4 WNBC's worst idea for an ad campaign. It pops up more than the Optimum Triple play on channel 4. I can tell you, NBC 4, I'm not 4 New York. I'm 2 New York (get it, I watch CBS 2 WCBS just to avoid this). I'm 7 New York too (also watch ABC 7 WABC).

HeadOn ones are worse. They are so bad that their ads show people making fun of their ads.

The new commercial for Tums with George Jetson. George takes a food tablet that is equal to a chili dog with the works and gets heartburn. Rosie comes running in with a a packet of Tums Quick Pak. How dare they disgrace a TV cartoon icon like that. First they have Santa at Christmastime saying "I should have used Preparation H.", now they have George Jetson with heartburn. The other commercials that I can't stand are these 2 commercials with that blonde lady from the oil and natural gas industry tyring to justify the reason why they are ripping people off. In one of them she says "Do you own an oil company?". Why don't they take the money that they are spending on these ads and use it to drop the price of gasoline and diesel fuel?
Ben

I hate commericals, period.
