I think they might actually have the ones on TV beat because there's so many different ones. Israel, Afghanistan, no food, parents' of Sandy Hook victims, Patrick Stewart and other celebrities talking about horrible things, medical problems. I know it's all important and makes sense giving how many people watch Youtube. But I can't watch them anymore then the St. Judes and abused animals on TV. It's that time of year. I'm starting a charity for people traumatized by holiday cologne commercials. If you donate we'll send you an adorable box of handiwipes to clean off the scent, esp. if you visited a dept store during your holiday shopping. 3 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/694/#findComment-8245515

CrazyInAlabama December 19, 2023 Share December 19, 2023 (edited) I am sick of seeing the Red Cross commercial for donations. Where the kid is in a desert location, and 'snow' is falling that's actually ashes from the neighbor's house burning down. The latest version has sirens getting closer, but that wasn't in the original version. So, the mother is standing watching the neighbor's house burn down, and doing nothing about calling for help, or getting her kid out of the ashes blowing by.

I'm guessing that's why she bought him a new one. On 12/27/2023 at 9:16 AM, Gharlane said: I hated that commercial! I don't even remember it. Which say a lot about its ability to convince me to buy a BMW. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/694/#findComment-8254285
Phebemarie January 2 Share January 2 (edited) Anyone else a little tired of insurance spokespeople achieving a weird kind of celebrity status? I'm think particularly of Flo and Jake and Dr. Rick. At least the Mayhem commercials are occasionally witty and maybe not shown quite as often as the others.

Their commercials make me laugh. That's always a plus in my book. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/694/#findComment-8254552

I wouldn't go so far as love, but agree with the nope, not tired -- 21st Century (which is my insurer) has boring commercials when they bother to have them, the General has awful commercials, Liberty often irritates me, and Nationwide has relied too much on Peyton Manning, but the rest all make me laugh a good bit, including the prominent spokespeople like Flo, Jake from State Farm, and Dr. Rick (along with Mayhem and Dennis Haysbert's character from Allstate), and generally don't annoy me. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/694/#findComment-8254862
Gharlane January 3 Share January 3 Planet Fatness has a new commercial featuring that anthromophized venereal disease as its spokeswoman. No thanks, I'd never go where she has been before, even if they used flamethrowers. On 1/1/2024 at 9:11 PM, Prevailing Wind said: You can ease part of your dread. They're just "Dunkin' " now; dropped their Donuts. OK by me, as their donuts have become inedible. Isn't "Dunkin" an entry in the Urban Dictionary? 1 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/694/#findComment-8254994
sempervivum January 3 Share January 3 These are not new, but I loathe the 'Smart Asset' ads with the stupid men. The guy who 'probably shouldn't have tried to remove his own appendix' and the other one who didn't notice that the swimming pool cement was quick-setting. In keeping with the theme, I also hate that big loud dude in an orange sweater who asks if we're 'smart enough' to switch to Consumer Cellular. GTFOH. 3 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/694/#findComment-8255089
