The most annoying thing about ads on tv are that there are far too many of them these days. Not so many years ago, a programme lasting an hour would have just 3 ad breaks, now it`s 5 or 6. I mean iv`e seen ads come on within 8 minutes of a programme starting! The best way to enjoy a programme now is to record it & fast forward through the breaks.
Swiffer ads.
Drug ads are the worst. I hate the fake doctors who casually list the side effects like they are having conversation. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm really sick about hearing of 4 hour erections, swelling of the throat, tongue and lips and difficulty breathing.
...there is certainly a dearth of GOOD creative spots anymore...most ad wonks seemingly don't want to use their imaginations...it's a tragedy that some of the better ads are for liquor and fast food...(except Sonic, I just want to take their heads and bash em together like human wap balls)...
Except the one where the mom is excited to have some free time so starts reading a book...and then the daughter comes in and tells her how it ends. The mom throws the book over her shoulder with an exasperated look...that one makes me laugh every time.Quote:

That happens here too. A local Flea market used to use their young son as the spokesperson. Now he's grown up and does the main ad which replays him in his youth. Enough already.Quote:
