Yet another "commercials that annoy the hell out of us" thread

"Calling AAALLLLLL Captains!"

I don't know who does the voiceover work in those annoying Captain Morgan commercials, but whenever he utters the above catchphrase, I have an incredibly strong urge to track the guy down and punch him in the stomach. Hard.

Just had to get that off my chest, folks. Sorry.

 

How about those "pass the ball" radio commercials ?

 

These 'guys' ad's annoy the hell out of me...

Worst use of a song...ever.

I thought this was a local piece of crap, then discovered it's national.

 

I can't stand these Midas commercials on the radio with the guy that sounds like Martin Sheen.
Guess I can't stand Martin Sheen.

 

the one with the ultra closeup of someone bitting into a juicy sleazy overstuffed dripping greasy hamburger...

can't remember the venue but, I sure remember that carnage.

so appalling.

 

Paris Hilton washing a black sports car, right...?

 

Any Boost mobile ad - probably the sleaziest ads on the tele right now.

I haven't seen the ads lately, but the Comcast ads with the monotone singing got me scrambling for the remote pretty quickly.

 

All of them, they're the reason i no longer watch ''commercial'' television.:thumbsdn:

 

Hmm. That wasn't so bad. 'Good Vibrations' has been bastardized in far worse ways over the years, IMHO.

It's Martin Sheen. http://pfey.typepad.com/newswadio/2009/02/martin-sheen---midas.html

 

I'll be damned! It WAS him. Too bad it wasn't Charlie doing it.

 

Bud Light commercials during football games, the height of stupidity.

 

HEADON! Apply directly to the forehead!

Can't get any more annoying

 

OMG...I can't stand this radio commercial!! As soon as I hear those goofy opening notes of the ad I quickly change to ANY other station!!! I can't believe they OK'd this ad for the airwaves with that guys terrible singing voice!!!

 

Any commercial with WHISTLING in it!!!
Here in Vegas, there are A LOT of commercials for COX Cable, and this, on top of the other 'whistling' commercials that are out there, THESE take the cake!

 

My vote is that Geico commercial with the wad of money with eye balls, and "Somebody's Watching Me". I'm pretty tolerant of most commercials, but this one just rubs me the wrong way I guess.

 

I watch all my TV on dvd, so I escape the annoying commercials that are on TV now but I listen to XM Radio and on the news and commentary channels, they have these very annoying "get a room.com" commercials where many voices sing the title of the website over and over again. Ugh, I have to turn the station real fast when those come on!

 

+1 - truly intolerable

 

I can't stand the AT&T rollover minutes commercials.

I also hate all the macho beer and truck commercials on football. The press conference ones were clever at first but now they're just lame.

 

Especially the ad where the mother is in the front seat and just stares at the kid in the back seat for what seems like an eternity. WTF is that about? What a waste of commercial time.

 

+1

 

may he rest in peace, but any Billy Mays commercial annoyed me.

But I used like the yelling Jerry Carroll in the Crazy Eddies commercials back in the 70's/80's. Maybe because I was younger and didn't know better.

 

I don't like the Coke Zero ads with the talking toungues, eyeball, and brain. While the eyeball is fine and reminds me of The Residents, talking toungues and brains with legs are just kind of gross.

 

How did that ever get made? Dumbest commercial of all time, and I'll bet they wouldn't've gone with it if they weren't already as established in the firmament as they are.

My most annoying commercial is the one with the guy talking about water slides being "a mind eraser." I looked it up. It's for Carnival Cruises. I couldn't remember. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aaBqeADbynE They call it "Fun Director." I call him "*** Wiper."
