    Second on the Minute Maid OJ commercial with the little kid. I'd slap the hell out of my kid if he was just adding orange juice to everything then slap myself for raising a kid that at that age doesn't understand orange juice can't just be added to anything and everything.

    Another tally for the Chevy truck commercials.

    Are those the ones with Ray Liotta?

    He looks awful in those.

    Lol, I'll have to post it later, But in Austin market constantly see these law firm commercials that are bad....

    One basically just has this saying of "dooo the research"... GD, it's like looped in my head now... Maybe I shouldn't unleash this. It's typical lawyer commercial but... This "do the research" part just is frustrating, haha, and after hearing it repeatedly on non-dvr'd show/sports... Just kind of sticks with you. It's a curse!!!

    The other one is dream cars austin... Jesus, guys... He must own the commercial spots on radio/tv in Austin... On like non-stop for ****ty financing of cars etc, I mean I'm not sure if it's bad... But red flag of "no job, no problem!!! We'll finance anyone" is... Probably not a great sign that you're going to get a good deal, lol.

    Christian Mingle. I find their commercials to be perverse in an unattractive way. To be fair, I don't doubt that if there were an Atheist Mingle advertiser, I'd feel the same way! Fortunately, we rarely have to look at any commercials, having cable boxes that will record up to 15 things at a time, with a huge amount of memory available. So we record stuff and then zip past the damn things, whatever they may be.

    The lip singing Southwestern Airlines commercials that Root insists on playing every break makes me want to throw a brick through my TV.

    Chance Kit Kat Bar. The little guy that is in the Dr. Pepper commercials. And heck, the other Dr. Pepper commercial with the guy on the jet ski. I love Dr. Pepper but I may stop drinking due to their commercials.

    I'm a Chelsea fan, so I watched the English Premier League on NBC Sports for months... and this stupid "LUV Bug" Volkswagen commercial was the bane of my existence. They played it thousands of times.

    Jeep RECALCULATING makes me want to throw things at the TV. Theres also a radio version that makes me more angry.

    I'll disagree with you, I think it's a really good commercial

    The first time, sure. Try hearing it 10-15 times over a four-hour telecast of two games - nearly every Saturday and Sunday for several months.

    Yep. Particularly bad within this set are all the commercials with the damn, smartass box. Ugh, it just makes my head hurt. THIS is best thing you can up with, ad agency? A anthropomorphic, CG box? Horrible.

    Ahh, I finally found it. Advocare Rehydrate. No wonder I couldn't think of the name. Dumb product name.

    It's specifically this commercial. I get tired of seeing it, but I do kind of enjoy this one particularly egregious part of it at 0:19.

    https://www.ispot.tv/ad/wklN/advocare-rehydrate-bring-the-heat

    After spending 2/3rds of the commercial trying to convince us this guy's a serious fireman, he caps it with "I've got a job to do"

    ......subtitled by "paid actor".

    Does no one watch these commercials before they send them out?
