The robot day care one had me watching with some weird combination of :stare: and :haw:. I rather liked it, and I haven't seen it since. Provided they don't inundate my shows with it, I can safely say I enjoy that one.

This one always irritates me. Not so much because of the actress but because Excedrin Migraine has exactly the same ingredients/dosage as regular Excedrin, they just rebranded it and raised the price.

Also I have migraines (that's right, I know pain) and Excedrin doesn't do poo poo for them. :argh:

To me, all of Geico's terrible commercials were redeemed by the Robot Day Care commercial, and I look forward to them running it into the ground and then some.

People say stuff like this but has Geico ever made terrible commercials? I know some people didn`t love the cavemen but they`re still in like the top 5% of commercials compared to pretty much everything else on TV.

Only one of their ads that got annoying for me was the ad with the pig squealing for 20 seconds as he drove home. But still better then most crap in this thread.

I know movie commercials are rarely the greatest thing ever, but the ad for Bucky Larson seems as though it is a calculated effort to be as irritating as possible. Especially at the end with the "RATED R! HA HA HA HA!"

So did you not see the video he linked of a dude lighting his water on fire or what.

After everything in the last few years I can't understand how anyone would trust oil companies to do the right thing by default.

Just so you know, that video (from Gasland) didn't result from fracking. The man's personal well and been drilled into a naturally occuring pocket of methane.

This is a loving anti-commercial. It seems engineered to make as many people as possible NOT see the film. Ignoring the fact that the movie looks goddamn horrible, but I really do not like a guy who talks like he is mildly retarded yell at me throughout the ad.

This most likely has been brought up in the thread by now, but in the Charmin bears commercial, the most irritating phrase has to be "You'll never pass inspection with pieces left behind". Oh pretty please tell me, Charmin, when and in what situation will my rear end be inspected for toilet paper lint? :allears:

Judging from those commercials, you're supposed to walk around the house naked until your parents inspect it. Also you need to grind the toilet paper over a wide area so the pieces will be easily visible at a glance all over your rear end cheeks.

Is the child possessed by Grandpa's malevolent spirit from beyond the grave? Experiencing a personality disorder, to cope with the trauma of Grandpa's passing? Trying to get in on some of that sweet "elderly spokesperson" money Orville Redenbacher was making bank with?

I dunno. All's I do know is that kid is loving annoying.

Well, if you're gay, or a woman, someone inspecting your naked behind is a fairly common occurrence during sex.

For some reason, one of the really popular ads near where I am (106.1 BLI, Long Island) has a Ad Council commercial about being prepared for a disaster.

"But what if a disaster strikes. Are you prepared for that?"

Not even like a fire or a tsunami or a kaiju attack

Just "A" disaster. It's so vague and frequent that it bugs the poo poo out of me. Also in the midle they do this creepy backwards sound thing when the "disaster" strikes

I've always liked that commercial. The pig always reminds me of my cute but incredibly loud/dumb cat and it cracks me up. But I could see how most people wouldn't like it.

I used to think the smartphone one was kind of funny too in a stupid way, but it's been played so much that I've just gotten sick of it.

I can't tell you how much my husband and I hate that one Subway commercial where they talk about how much grease is produced from making food, and that most of it ends up in your nasty fast food burger. But come to Subway for this chicken cutlet sandwich that is always baked, never fried in our stores (but is totally a loving fried chicken cutlet patty that was just fried somewhere else.) :smug:

gently caress you, Subway. You and your lovely sandwiches.

You seem to be talking about Nick Swardson where the other dude is talking about Adam Sandler's buddy that appears to be coked up randomly saying poo poo in the commercial as interruptions not actually starring in the movie.

I have to admit I chuckled at Beninati sending it down to reporter-caveman for that "shoot through the hole in the wall" thing and he's completely surrounded by gecko inflatables and Geico signs with a :stare: face.
