For the new Burger King commercial, he just looks Creepy. I mean Ronald McDonald is at least *capable* of assuming other facial expressions...

Right! I mean, I'm a grown man and I wouldn't want to run up on that dude. How is a kid supposed to work on his little happy meal with that kind of mascot intimidation going on? lol

The kid on that Kars For Kids ad sounds like someone is holding a gun to his head as he sings.

A sleeping baby needs to have its ass at home. The world will not whisper for it.

I find her not only annoying but lacking in acting skills.

I second this. Any of those look-at-these-crying-children/animals commercials just upset me more than anything. As someone else said, I do my social work; I don't need depressing blackmail.

ALL GEICO commercials are AWFUL. Who the hell is approving them?
Also, the King got really, really creepy for a bit, but I'm okay with him now. I think they've toned him back.

Only part of the country will get this, but I despise FOOORRRRMAAAAAAN MIIIIILLLLSSSS commericals.

Also, H&R Block's "get you billion back America" commercials because they're on the radio every 5 seconds.

Finally, this isn't a commercial, but it is an advertisement: I am soooo tired of seeing Joumana Kayrouz's face on everything. I swear at this point show owns every bus (inside and out) and billboard in Metro Detroit.

This commercial JUST went off. At the end, you see the baby's arm is moving and his eyes are open. That makes it even more stupid.

I actually have no issue shopping at Forman Mills -- I got a really cute leather coat there last month -- but I HAAAAAATE their commercials.

My sister and I -- both native Washingtonians -- giggle about how the Forman Mills commercials remind us of "AT! ALL! 6! MORTON'S!!!!!!"

Any commercial that depicts children outsmarting, outwitting, or talking back to adults.

There's nothing cute or funny about that. Apparently enough consumers find that cute and funny or else companies would stop randomly putting children in advertisements.

Now YOU have a friend in the Diamond Business. The Shane Company...blah, blah, blah. Makes me want to punch the radio.

I would also like to make it illegal for radio ads to include sirens, screeching tires and honking horns. But that's just me.

Other than the Super Bowl, I haven't even seen a commercial in ages. Why do people sit through them???? If I'm not watching a recorded show, I pause every show at the beginning so I can then fast forward through all the commercials. Or, I leave the room during the commercials to do stuff- use the restroom, get a snack, let the dog out. I will not sit there through commercials.

DubaiSis 04-11-2014 10:17 AM

Every commercial that says pERvent instead of pREvent. Or perfessional, or perdict. And there are SOOOO many of those out there.
