What is the TV commercial that you despise the most that is running currently? The one that makes you throw things at the TV?
Mine is the one where the guy is walking along the street bitching about not being able to find a shirt that looks good un-tucked. It is his, "passion". So he opens his own store.
Now....you have to wonder. Does this guy have no other issues in his life? How can you be passionate about any article of clothing?

(2,768 posts)That weird ass blue silk shirt and cross combo makes him look like a lounge lizard or something. Then 10, or 2, years he's been making this pillow is obviously a long enough time ago that the pictures needed to be in black and white.

I hate all commercials, even the funny Geico ones, and almost all the tv I watch any more is either on channels that don't have commercials like PBS and the premium cable channels or is stuff I've recorded so I can ff through the commercials. Of which there are two million during each break.
Ronald Reagan did this to us, you know. His FCC dropped the rule on time limits for commercial breaks. Goddam Republicans.
we can do it

Between BBC and Netflix I can avoid the annoying commercials. (note: very long cord required to receive UK domestic BBC TV in the USA).
though the commercial I hated the most (that's not running) - is that darned "Head on" commercial.

(28,394 posts)"It doesn't look like a Buick!" then the most annoying music ever. I can't hit the mute button fast enough.
Also.... has anyone ever noticed in those ads for prescription medicines that the people seem to be walking in slow motion? (Like the mother and daughter selling pebble jewelry at a craft fair.) All of those "scenario" ads are sooooo sloooooow. Ugh.
I also really hate that one for Viberzi (?) with the little red head dressed like an intestines and being deliberately annoying. Really? That is what you came up with?!
