bitchin camaro April 9, 2016 Share April 9, 2016 I see the character of Little Sweet is back. One of the ads has him talking to a guy who's just finished assembling something with an allen wrench. which LS calls a "little tool" - not the best phrase for the character to be uttering. Little Sweet cracks me up, although not as much right this second since the Prince show I had tickets for last night got cancelled because he had the flu. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/179/#findComment-2131422
LoneHaranguer April 9, 2016 Share April 9, 2016 Little Sweet is a character best appreciated in small doses, but the company doesn't do that, and will fill its ad time in a show with him. Yes, it's different ads, but it's the same voice and shtick, so it grates after a while. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/179/#findComment-2131515

I haven't seen the ad but it sounds deliberate to me. Little Sweet is supposed to be over the top ridiculous. I think the parents in the gelato commercial are assholes! They're also what made me make the post about the ice cream left on the spoons that they pull out of their mouths. I agree. If they don't want the kid to have sweets before bed, tell him to go to bed. But to go on and on about how delicious it is is just mean. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/179/#findComment-2134714

kirinan April 10, 2016 Share April 10, 2016 (weeps silently) Like the Soba Noodle Broth Bowl. Guess it was a seasonal item. Oh, how I mourn that Soba Noodle Broth Bowl. I don't think it was seasonal, because it was at my local Panera for at least a year. I hate the new broth bowls they've put in its place. I used to eat lunch at Panera twice a week, now maybe I get there once a month if that. And you're all right--that pretentious commercial does nothing for my desire to go there. It could have something to do with the fact that I'm old and no longer their target market, but I suspect it has more to do with them adding things I like to the menu, getting me hooked, and then taking them away. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/179/#findComment-2135623
