Got Another One
 

*Bump*

There is one that is running (I think its locally) for Church's Fried Chicken. It has the song, "We want the Funk' playing, but the words are changed to 'We want the crunch' and it has this fat nasty guy with fuzzy long hair who needs a shave that looks way too much like serial killer David Berkowitz eating a piece of spicy chicken and he's oohing and aahing like he was about to reach climax. It is the creepiest damn thing. I wanna know who was on the creative team that Ok'd that ad. Did no one stop and say, "uh, isnt this is a little creepy?"

I LOATHE the Burger King "Big buckin chicken" commercial they've got going right now. It bothers me-the song, the dudes riding the chicken-the whole thing!!

I have to agree, the big-buckin chicken commercial is weird.

Ugh, I hate the big buckin' chicken commercial. They're horrible. If anything, they make me NOT want to eat their chicken. Those giant chickens just look so gross and scary.

That chicken commercial is creepy, then again, so is any BK commercial with "the King."

I usually try really hard not to say these words, but you are completely wrong - that's the best commercial on TV.

"You are big . . . you areeeeeee, CHICKEN."

Hilarious - thank God for BK.

Ok so the new Skittles commercial where that guy is on a job interview and the woman interviewing him said that they're looking for someone more experienced or qualified or something. So then this long ass beard that the guy has, which has been reaching across the desk for Skittles until this point, reaches out and starts like stroking her face. EWWWWWW, wtf is that? And how did this hideous idea ever actually make it into a commercial?!

The Burger King commercial kills us. First off, the guy is riding a giant rooster. And then it's all, "to beat it, you gotta eat it." WTF?!

I agree! That one is truly disturbing. Makes you wonder about the kind of person who thought that up.

The person who thought up those commercials should get a raise. Seriously, they have consistently had some of the best commercials for the last year or so.

NO.

The "King" freaks me out-his face is so...creepy. The one commerical they had a while back where he's peeking in some girl's window and then hands her a burger is scary!! I don't want to associate a cheeseburger with peeping toms!!

Damn you now I'm going to have that song stuck in my head and that's the only line I know!

That sounds like a good catchphrase for a triple XXX video game.

I will always be a huge fan of the Burger King commercials. They are hilarious! I love the new one where the King is in bed and the construction guy wakes him up. Then the King finds a bunch of people in his room staring at him. So funny.

I don't like the SourPatch Kids commercials. Those little things running around are creepy. And, I'd still be pissed if one cut my hair in my sleep!

Ahhh but they're so cute, especially when they look sad. :)

This is a local commercial, but worth mentioning.

This is an advertisement for a new radio station, called "the Arch".

There's this little arch swinging high from a big arch, and the commercial was playing Creed's "Higher".

Has anyone seen the new Burger King commercial where the guys are singing a song "I Am Man"? I love it. I think it's awesome. It's so funny.

Lamisil for toenail fungus -- ICK ICK ICK!

This one was aired when I was in the 7th grade- which was about 16 years ago. But I still remember it because it was really creepy. It was for Calvin Klein's Obsession. It involved some sort of bizarre trial. Everyone in it was really creepy.

I also hated the ones for corn oil and dishwashing liquid that were too emotional for the product they were trying to sell.

I just saw this one the other day. CREEPY!

Car commercial
 

They should NEVER have a commercial on the air that the people are just driving along in their car and all of a sudden BAM someone crashes into them. It scares me to death because I forget about it and because it would scare anyone who lost someone in a crash or was in a crash like that, plus kids should not see that....

Its totally unexpected and scary. I hate those commercials.....

Re: Car commercial
 

yah the VW commercials. Makes me not want to drive.

Re: Re: Car commercial
 

I've been hit a few times, and i can't watch these. Now as soon as one starts I change the channel

Re: Car commercial
 

Yeah those commercials are scary.

Re: Car commercial
 

yeah those are pretty scary. But I don't think they shouldn't be on the air.

I think it should be illegal to show scary movie commercials late late late at night. Those really scare me too :(

i was just thinking about this the other day when the commercial came on.

the one where it was a toe nail infection and the little fungus creature lifts up the toe nail. did anyone else see this one?

the Valtrex commercials scare me. attractive people with genital herpes reducing their outbreaks and the risk of spreading their herpes.

Has anyone seen the anti-smoking commercial with the guy with the hole in his neck. I cannot watch it. I have to change the channel. It totally freaks me out.

YES. I remember those. All of Calvin Klein's commercials from that era were weird.

And those damn Egoiste commercials with all the women and the shutters opening and closing.

YES, this might be the first truly creepy commercial I have ever seen. When he puts the voice box up to his throat, it just makes my skin crawl. My 3 year is old is like WTF? (ok, not really WTF but you get the idea).

Not a fan of that commercial either. That one and the car getting hit in the VW commercial both bother me so much I turn it or leave the room if Im at someones house. I can't take them.

Ok, the new Altel series...that woman looks WAY too much like Catherine Zeta-Jones. It took me about 5 times seeing it to figure out it really wasn't her. And when the "Harry Connick(sp?) Jr" look-alike bowls with the Cingluar blob's head, that's kind of freaky too.

I hate those commericals. The original actors should sue for copyright infrengement. There are no "non-competetion" clauses for TV commericals. If both Cingular and Alltell want to hire Ms. Jones, then Ms. Jones should be the one in both commericals, not someone they dressed up to look like her. /hijack

I bet T-Mobile is paying her a pretty penny, and I bet that penny wouldn't be so pretty if she did a commercial for another company. Ditto with Harry Conick Jr. and the Verizon nerd. Although I am suprised they got away with using the little Cingular dude, as he's probably Trademarked.

I asked my marketing teacher about commercials that use competing brands' logos once, and she said that it's ok as long as you don't make fake claims about it. So it's ok to use the Cingular dude, but you can't make a commercial using that icon and say that a portion of Cingular's proceeds go to fund terrorism or something like that.

What about those Jello "Wiggle" commercials.

The guy with the trench coat is suppose to represent Sprint. Remember the guy who went around giving Sprint phones? I like those commercials because it gets its message across. Also because Alltel's my cell phone provider!:D

And per my cousin's husband (who works for Cingular), the blob's name is Jack.

Right. Harry Connick Jr. is the spokesperson for SunCom ("and they get it"), which apparently doesn't rank as high as Verizon, Sprint, Cingular and T-Mobile in Alltel's circles.

I love these commercials, including the legal disclaimer at the beginning.

HA! That just now came on tv! I think the one with the little boy and the dancing cow is funny, but the other ones are annoying.
