I hate the Uber Eats commercials with Simone Bowles and the Queer Eye gay, mainly because Simone always acts like she's disgusted by the Queer Eye guy and can barely stand to be around him.

Don't know if it's national or regional (in my case Nevada) but just when I was celebrating the end of the continuous "medicare enrollment" tv scams, Charter Spectrum has taken over the airwaves. Not only are they aired constantly, often cutting into the beginning of some other ad, they even bump the start of Their Own commercials to air a different one!!

There's some bizarre Mercedes commercial that has some weird stuffed animal creature strapped to the front of a truck trying to crawl over to a Mercedes SUV in the cold and collapses. Some little girl picks it up.

This commercial is creepy and makes no sense.

But with Downy (apparently), they can fuck as much as they want? Or they can fix a closet without getting all wrinkled (at least their clothes...their skin is another matter).

R19, those Joe Namath commercials! OMFG, put that dude out of his misery. He looks like a dead body that was digitally animated, and his vocal delivery sounds like someone picked out all the words he speaks from other contexts and pieced them together without believable inflections and rhythms.

I also hate the one (I don't even know what the product or service is) where the family is having a facetime or zoom or something with the grandparents and the skinny old lady who looks like she's about to die holds an ugly cloth doll and the ugly child who sent it tells her the doll is for her to hug when they can't be together. Could they have possibly found any uglier actors for that commercial. My initial reaction when I first saw it was, "Don't bother, these people are better off without each other."

GMC Christmas commercial; you know the one. Husband buys TWO GMC vehicles for Christmas for himself and his wife, instead of thanking him (or giving him a blowjob), she immediately takes possession of the vehicle that he wanted for himself, and when he objects, she doubles down in her cuntiness.

Suddenly Zendaya is the go-to chick for high end items and she's recently popping up in TV ads for Valentino and Idole perfume by Lancome. She must be in her mid-20's but she gives off a very immature vibe that doesn't jibe with luxury merchandise. When I see her riding a horse in a white gown, it just seems fake and that she was picked because she's tall, bone-thin and has great hair.

The General Insurance ad with Shaq sitting in the woods wearing some dead animal fur like a caveman, while roasting a skunk over a campfire. Then Craig Robinson walks up and they talk about insurance. So stupid.

[quote] Fidelity - Change of Plans ....and the daddy is so gay my screen almost blew up in flames

R116, are you referring to the grandfather (whose investment plans are changing because his daughter is expecting twins), or the father of the twins? I'm not even sure the babies' father appears -- but he couldn't possibly be gay because he's married to a woman and has sired twins! For that matter, the grandpa is married to a woman and has sired a daughter, so his gayness is also suspect.

I can't tolerate the new Folger's coffee ads with the jingle "the best part of waking up" the singer has vocal fry and my eyes cross every time i hear it.

That commercial for mental health with the owner of the Indianapolis Colts. The guy sounds like he's had a stroke or something and is struggling to get the words out.

It makes me uncomfortable when I watch it.

These latest L’Oreal commercials with Viola talking about female empowerment.

by Anonymousreply 124March 1, 2021 4:02 AM

R124 Such a stupid commercial and its message is totally inconsistent with female empowerment.

"Here - cover up your gray with L'Oreal, because no one wants to see a white-haired old hag. Woman power!"

Joe Namath looks like Bela Lugosi in the Medicare commercials. WTF happened to Broadway Joe? The commercials are sad.

The Motaur commercials are creepy.

I don't know what's going on in the commercial with the stuffed animal crawling in the rain and the little girl picks him up and takes him to her car. Doesn't that toy belong to someone? Is she stealing it? WTH did it come from? It bothers me so much I've never paid attention to what they're selling.

I love the Culturelle ginger guy -- he is so hot! (He thinks his dog is playing with a squeaky toy but it's the baby)

I love Dr. Rick.

With Spectrum cable service I always turn on the TV to their homes channel. There is a Los Angeles lawyer who advertises endlessly. It must be quite cheap to advertise or else he's super bilking people fee-wise.

I despise the "Oh, Oh, Oh, Ozempic" commercial which uses the song "Magic" as its tune. That song brings me back to my teenaged summer days in the 70s at the public pool, where the popular pop songs of the day were heard through a speaker. The commercial has corrupted those memories.

It backfired, Ozempic. I will never use you.

Target has an ad for a shampoo called Rhyme & Reason, which is shot like a fashion spread. Models with great hair are shown in a field in flowery dresses, and they flash the shampoo container 1-2 times. The ad ends with two of the female models leaning towards each other like they're about to kiss, for no good reason.

Haven't seen it in a while, so a bit hazy on the specifics, thanks in advance for bearing with me...

Some sort of (energy) drink where all of the people in a crowd (at a party) morph into creatures with two goatee'd mouths. Neither my mom nor I can bear to watch it - totally skeeved out (as our Italian-American friends would say)!

The stupid Fingerhut commercial where the woman is dancing across her yard as she mows her lawn and the other woman who's exercising by lifting her little pug dogs.

And to make it worse, they say buying from Fingerhut helps you build your credit. Yeah, right.

"Hi, I'd like to apply for a home loan. I have a Fingerhut account."

150 posts and no one has mentioned that Volvo "Hard Times in The Mill" commercial. It practically makes my ears bleed. "Every mornin' at half past six..." OMG...make it stop. Can't say, "Alexa, mute TV" fast enough.

I want to see the alternate ending where they get hit backing out of the driveway.

R151, that's Pete Seeger singing about hard times in the mill. What is it that you hate? His voice, or the lyrics, or what? Folk music isn't my first choice but I've never found it painful, more like bland. And his voice is well suited to the genre, inoffensive, maybe boring but not unpleasant.

All the ads about stuff for Mother's Day -- gifts, flowers, restaurants. The day just seems fraught, especially now that emotional "triggers" are all the rage. Some people's mothers have died (maybe recently, given the pandemic) and they're mourning -- some people's mothers suffer dementia and the survivors are grieving the loss of their "real" mom -- some women wanted to become mothers but haven't been able to overcome fertility problems -- some women have lost children to illness or crime -- some people didn't have a good relationship with their mothers and are provoked to anger or resentment or at least impatience by all of the sentimentality that they've never shared. I suppose it's a happy day for most people, but that's hardly universal.

I have noticed a spate of confounding commercials lately and it's driving me nuts. One is for Orkin pest control. It's in a baby's room and the stuffed animals in the mobile are discussing the fumigators dedication as the fumigator touches all of the things in the baby's room. Super creepy.

The other ones are, I think, both for the same company. Lexus car commercials, one is a black sports guy talking about having to make people uncomfortable is how empathy is made and... that sells cars?

The other Lexus one has a woman who plays the violin amd walks on a window ledge and says that empathy builds potential and hiring, building potential is... how to sell cars.
