Most irritating TV commercial on now?

[BMW Dom]

All Commercials irritate me.

Most of them only serve the purpose of being a great time to get up and get something out of the kitchen.

I do enjoy some of them. This is one of my favs.

The Joe Namath Medicare commercial. The sign up period is long over but they still run that commercial.

The companies that put out those commercials are are not affiliated with Medicare, an insurance company or agency at all. They are simply a lead generation company running ads that sell your information to agencies that solicit insurance during the annual enrollment period. Although the enrollment period is over, people on Medicaid can change their plan when ever they want, that's how they get away with it. Those just inquiring will have their information sold, over and over and over, the calls and marketing will never end. I would recommend never calling any phone number on TV for anything to do with insurance, EVER.

All Commercials irritate me.

Especially when you are already paying cable prices to watch them.

they're all irritating to me...more commercials than the program your trying to watch

There's a regional one here for a Mitsubishi car dealership that caters to a certain demographic in a certain financial bracket that I can't stand. It's animated (poorly) and the voices used and stereotypes they base the animated characters on are borderline offensive.

One of those 'No down payment (but 20% APR)! places.

The subway commercial where a black guy steals a pizza from a white delivery guy and an asian customer.

How this did not get racist backlash, i don't understand. Unless its because it involved a football player.

Either way i hate that commercial.

I watch pretty much zero TV these days, but Youtube ads really annoy me when there are 5+ ads that are 30 seconds or more for a video that is only 30 seconds long itself. Ridiculous. I'm so glad I use an ad blocker. I can understand a banner or small pop-up on a forum, but when videos have several ads that are longer than the video I just exit out and move on.

Any commercial featuring the obnoxious Amy Schumer (Tampax) or the equally obnoxious Leslie Jones (Uber Eats).

The emu commercial is annoying, somehow worse than Geico I think. And I don't watch tv, that's just from youtube, I like to have music on in the background.

But I guess youtube and tv have to pay the bills, and advertising gets it done.

Geico "Not in my house" is a sucker.

Regional grocer Hy-Vee. The song gets stuck in my head and it won't go away for hours.

You Tube ads are getting bad... sometimes 6 or more commercials for a less than 10 minute video.

 

[Wylie6G72]

Jim and Bill Adler, and Clay Cooley. Makes me a little ashamed that I live in Texas.

 

[wemay]

All the drug company commercials pushing their newest and best...

Aretha Franklin and Liza Minnilli..Oh yea!

I hate the emu insurance commercial....I would never consider the ins because the commercial is so stupid.
Im sick of Flo also....have been for years

I only like Flo because she’s hot!!

 

[ka9mnx]

Thankfully I don't watch TV with ads. I don't miss them. I have ads blocked on YouTube too.

My son is in advertising. Other wise he‘s a good kid. If an ad gets under your skin, good or bad, it’s deemed a success. The product is immaterial. The subliminal implantation is what counts. You might find Flo irritating. Others might find her authentic. But before you know the ground is fertile you first have to plant the seed.

The Liberty Mutual one where a guy in a hot dog stand is selling wet teddy bears.

A lot of streaming has no commercials. With Hulu you can pay a few dollars more a month and get no commercials.

I thought that was stupid, but now I think it's funny. Only in NYC can you sell wet teddy bears and make a living (just kidding).

I've seen on even better - a 29-minute ad for Vaer watches before a 12 minute video. Thank goodness you can skip the ad after 5-10-seconds.
