Updated thread - What TV commercial gets on your nerves?

The DirecTV ad with the utter douchebag husband/dad who sticks the big screen TV in the bathroom and in the kid's bedroom because, "we have cable, so we can't record five shows at the same time," makes me want to throw things at my TV set. That guy is a walking poster boy for spousal homicide.

 

Not to mention, we have an entire auditorium filled with people to watch a 10 year old play a tuba solo. Has anyone here ever heard of a tuba soloist? That's like going to a concert and finding out it's just the bass player, and he'll just be jamming on the bass for you since he's not the band's singer either.

 

Speaking of throwing things at the TV...there's a commercial where a mom and dad throw a TV and other household items over a cliff, presumably leaving them behind as garbage. Oddly enough, it's touting green energy. #DumbassProducers.

 

The funny thing about that dump heap commercial (which reminds me of Alice's Restaurant and the Massacree) is that if you read the fine print, at one point in the commercial you can read that they cleaned up the mess at the bottom of the cliff after filming it. The fine print is there, but I agree, it is a stupid commercial and encourages littering.

 

I love the Applebee's commercials with Chris Berman for the fact that the woman reacts like any one of us would if that blowhard showed up at our work. But why is the Applebee's slogan "See You Tomorrow"? Why can't I come today. How about "See You In a Few Hours"? I avoid Applebee's at all costs, but why would they want me to wait if I planned to eat there?

 

Some cold medicine.

"Less germs. More [Something]"

I hate grammatically incorrect taglines.

 

I only see those commercials late at night after they've closed, so I guess it makes sense.

 

I saw them all day today during the LSU-A&M game. Wanted soooo bad to go to Applebee's for some microwaved food, but now I have to wait til tomorrow.

 

I don't watch a lot of TV but am tuned into the FSU-Miami game.

Am enjoying the "Blair Witch" Chick-Fil-A commercials, but it's not comforting to know the closest one to me is 487 miles away.

 

Mmmmm. Chik-fil-a.

Speaking of witches, the latest installment of the Geico(?) commercial with the witch in the broom factory is annoying as f---. I can hear that bitch cackling from anywhere in my house when that damn thing comes on.
"How happy are they Jimmy?" get the f--- outta here with that crap.

 

It was funny the first couple of times, but enough's enough.

 

The Chick-fil-A ads make me homesick. Yummy.
