OT: Commercials We Hate

The funniest part of the moustache girl ad to me is when she comes dancing into the classroom at the end, the looks on all the background extras' faces (unintentionally) pretty clearly read, "oh god, not this obnoxious brat, again..." Which is exactly how I imagine someone like that would be received - with constant eye rolls.

The Expedia one for the “ocean”. Like the father has to fly him and his kid to Jamaica so the kid can experience the “ocean”.
 
A few more:

-The Pete Davidson Taco Bell commercial where he's serious. I don't understand his appeal. He's known for getting with celebrities because he's tall.

-Someone mentioned the Carlos Santana guy playing Are You Gonna Go My Way (Lenny Kravitz song) with the ballerina dancer. I get what the commercial's about, but it's like "bro she's gonna friend zone your ass"

-I'm tired of the Geico one with the goal horns and kids scoring goals. That couple is nasty ass.

I honestly can't envision a scenario where someone dances into a classroom like that and the entire room full of other people doesn't immediately think this chick is batshit nuts / needs to immediately be laughed at.

The teacher would probably join in too.

That happened in my HS a few times. Or just similar shenanigans. Then again it was the late-90s in a small school and we were all very influenced by tv, and teachers and/or kids were more cartoon characters back then.

Serious question why are we seeing commercials like this in the NYC area where we have way better food?


I just cant stand that shorted haired manly woman in this commercial. She’s disgusting. She dances at the end to get some needed attention. 😂😂😂😂.

Every commercial that bows to modern social normalities.

Also, those stupid car commercials with the morons that jump out the car in the middle of the desert and dance like rejects.

If you want to advertise anything right, do it how Johnny Lawrence from Cobra Kai would do it.

-Taco Bell ads that show extreme closeups of people's faces chewing. Not interested in looking at some rando eating a taco point blank in HD.

-Freaking. Guitar. Guy. Every time that ad runs, we seem to lose. And it's straight cringe.

-Any electric vehicle ad with the bass turned way up for no reason.

-The ADD BMW ad with the dad/grandpa going skiing in the Statue of Liberty hat. I don't even know what to say about this ad besides that it doesn't seem capable of making a single coherent point.

-Christmas carolers signing about freaking iPhones

Well I guess I wouldn't amaze anybody if I said the betting ones... But the junk food ones are close second.
Pretty much what is left are insurance and cars and drugs.
 
I hate the jeep one with the horses and galloping music where it has the rearview alarm go off at the end and is incorporated with the song. So annoying.

Funny enough, there's an online casino commercial they only show at most twice during broadcasts, and a girl I went to HS with and was friends with back then is in it. About three text exchanges had a good laugh about it.

Serious question that comes up every time I see that ad:

Are we supposed to know who that is?

She was big in the late 90s/early 2000s and became a C-Minus lister.

It would depend on what age demographic they're going for.

She's made a recent resurgence from her role on the White Lotus on Max. I didn't care for it much but people seem to love the show.

She's basically playing that character in the commercial, so if you don't know the show it kinda goes over your head

Good for her on making a comeback after being tied to the American Pie movies for decades.
