Updated thread - What TV commercial gets on your nerves?

We asked over 3,000 doctors to review 5 Hour Energy, and what they said is amazing. Over 73% who reviewed 5 Hour Energy said they would recommend a low-calorie energy supplement to their healthy patients who use energy supplements. Seventy three percent!

Well, there you have it. Jim Furyk's awesome hat was already wooing me, but a stunning mandate like this from the medical profession seals the deal.

I dislike the latest Applebee's spots, if only because the woman cooking just implies she wants to kill Chris Berman, instead of actually offing him on camera. Show me that Applebee's and I'll work free double shifts for life.

Just saw the one for Audi in which the little girl says her dad is an alien - love that commercial, especially the "See, I told you" look she gives the camera at the end.

That commercial is hilarious.

Taco Bell makes it sound like your life has two stages: Before trying the Dorritos Locos tacos, and after.

I'll risk sticking to the former.

The Buffalo Wild Wings spot that has the Zach Galifianakis wannabe as a home brewer and how crazy and out there he is supposed to be.
1) I've never heard of using Brats to make a beer. Gross.
2) WTF is that foam coming out of his carboy? I've never seen shirt like that happen in my life.
3) BW3 SERVES craft beers in almost every location I've been to! Why are you making fun of your own stuff.

I know this has touched off a lot of home brewers and they have demanded the spot to be pulled.

I'm not pissed, I just think it's dumb. The ad could have been funny, but it failed.

Demanded? Home brewers need to grow some thicker skin.

Dude, tucking into McD's with friends, mentions his new living quarters.

Friends, happy for dude, press for details.

Dude in a panic, as he pictures having just moved back into his little kid room at his parents' house. Seeks clues for a way out of this mess in the greasy countenance of his Big Mac. Comes up with "this loft space," a flat-out lie to his supposed close friends.

"Cool," everyone says and nods. And the obvious follow-up question dies under the heat lamp, much to the relief of the dude. The premise is that quick-witted people who can BS their friends also are really smart for eating at McD's. Or something.

Holy Bull screams into a pillow.

If anyone has anything but praise for this commercial, feel free to impale yourself on a rusty spike.

Speaking of awesome, FedEx Office may have wrapped up a Clio, although I'm glad my son wasn't in the room.

I saw a new cars.com commercial the other night. Yep, another two-heads-in-one doozy.

Beat me to the punch. That guy and the "crushed it" Corona guy should hate fork each other in a Passat to that horrid song.
