What commercials send you running for the mute button?

[PollyannaMom]

The Geico "Push It" commercial.

The Chaise commercial was funny once. Now, it is just annoying.
I've ALWAYS hated the 'Wee Wee Wee' pigs.

BUT... my current winner, simply from hearing it to much....

"When I have an asthma attack, I feel like a fish with no wada....." in an annoying child's voice that is driving me crazy. The whole family is sick of it and we turn the channel to avoid it now.

Oak Furniture Land with the berks knocking on furniture. Especially the Christmas ones where they show poor Granny stuck on a folding chair until hurrah, her family gets her a proper chair and everyone is happy.
Any and all bingo/gambling websites. Yes that's legal to advertise in the UK.
Condom ads at 9pm. It's barely watershed! I'm not a prude, but really?

What is in the condom ads there? The ones in the US normally don't even show a condom or even mention sex in any overt way.

I'm now starting to see commercials for like Viagra that are a bit more obvious but at first they didn't even tell you what the product did... They would just have something like someone coming to work all smiley and something about him having a REALLY good night due to Viagra. I always thought those were the stupidest commercials because if you didn't already know what the product was you still didn't know what the product was.

That and the Game of War commercials with Kate Upton. I mean she hot and everything, but that voice and the way she talks is just so freaking annoying. I'm wondering who thought she could act, and why didn't someone think of hiring a voice actress.

Oh! She talks in those commercials? I had no idea! I must've been listening with my eyes the whole time!

 

[snapppyd]

ASPCA
Viagra
Bob's Discount Furniture
Dial "7" Car Service
Prescription drug ads
Anti-Smoking ads with graphic medical pictures

Any and all lawyer commercials. The "If you have a phone, you have a lawyer" firm has been annoying me for at least 30 years!

When I was on maternity leave I was watching a lot of TLC. It seems like every 10 minutes there is a commercial for a lawyer for "transvaginal mesh." EVERY 10 MINUTES. I saw some TLC recently this weekend and I see the commercials are still going strong. And recently, I've been seeing Facebook ads for lawyers for the same thing. Is this really a nationwide epidemic?!?!?!

Pretty much any commercial, with the exception of a few. Commercials are highly annoying, I've just learned to tune them out. The only thing they're good for is a bathroom break.

Maybe not directly mentioned, but heavily implied what the purpose of the product is. For her pleasure, hmmm. I wonder what that ad could be for?

I don't watch many TV commercials as I watch most TV timeshifted on my DVR. I drive to Chicago often and I listen to WGN 720 and WBBM 780 for chatty talk and news. The one commercial which will guarantee having me change the channel if the Kars for Kids commercial. "K-A-R-S kars for kids!" Ugh.

 

[cluvsdisney]

All of them...ha!

 

[Kbee]

I mute all commercials, there are a few worth unmuting but very few.

 

[Soldier's*Sweeties]

I'm sure other Upstate NYers can understand this:
ANYTHING Fucillo...

 

[cleverclovers]

In the Toledo area... Steve Taylor Hyundai/Kia. Seems to be on every 10 min!

Same here.... ALL of them! Commercial break...mute.

 

[I loveStitchnippyjon]

We mute ALL commercials. The lettering on the remote is all worn off of the mute button!

 

[smadath]

Anything with PCMatic Kewpie Doll Looking Guy. I cannot tolerate him. And as someone else said: ASPCA. I love animals. Which is why I don't want to see the ramifications of them being abused. My imagination works fine for that!

I currently like the Geico Kitty Commercial. "If you're a cat, you ignore people. It's what you do." Yep. Pretty much!

Also, the Dr. Pepper Mop Dog commercial was cute. But I only saw it on tv once.

It made me smile!

 

[tluvstink]

Any commercial where you can hear someone chewing their food or licking fingers I can't stand it

TRIVAGO GUY!
