Updated thread - What TV commercial gets on your nerves?

My esteem for you is Slash’d

 

Are you a hair band fan?

They went through a hair band phase before they found a gimmick that stuck.

Pictures are out there.

 

There’s a new one now where they are just as stupid about their new white carpet. And just like in the lotto ticket add, they wait until the last second and then wipe towards the object they are hoping to keep dry. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

 

Alice in Chains was hair metal before grunge, too.

The funniest thing I saw after grunge exploded was Rob Halford showing up somewhere wearing a flannel shirt with the sleeves ripped off.

 

Every time AIC comes up I think of that heartbreaking Rolling Stone cover with Staley.

 

He was found dead after two weeks of being, well, dead for two weeks when the decomposition smell got bad enough for folks to investigate.

“Dirt” was the best album about addiction since “Bitches Brew.”

 

There’s that GMC spot again.
You’re driving a $90,000 pickup.
The one thing that you should want to do is keep your hands on the fucking steering wheel.

 

The online gambling site ads are absolutely swamping TV here in Boston since mobile sports gambling became legal earlier this month. I mean, not just during games or on cable sports networks, but during things like the morning news and the afternoon talk shows that have close to a 100 percent woman audience. They all suck, and have replaced Progressive and Liberty Mutual as the bane of my TV watching experience. Maybe they'll taper off in awhile when the market gets less new.

 

It's the NCAA tournament. Seen enough of Lilly. And I hate those commercials with the phony news conferences where the media asks dumb questions and the guy on the podium goes into lecture mode. Can't even remember what the latest one is selling.

 

So in one commercial Lily from AT&T is hanging with the UK players in Wildcat Lodge and acting like they’re her boys. Then in another ad she’s cheering on Gonzaga when they make a shot against Kentucky. They ain’t loyal out in these streets.

 

I'm rather surprised we haven't seen Jack Link's Peeing Sasquatch this weekend. He was on during the First Four games on ESPN, but I guess it's still too risqué for network TV.

 

Sergio and LIV are breaking all barriers
