I've never seen the commercial where the girls are on the bed.  Maybe they just show it in your area.

 

OK, so I've complained about many of them and especially about these commercials and I DO hate the one's about the toys in the bathroom.

 

However, the new one with the toilets in the bathroom is funny, just because I have laughed out loud when I saw it.  It's the new bathroom one that has one toy on the floor saying how terrible it is being there and then he says something like, 'I really feel sorry for (name of toy) and it shows the toy laying down between the lid and the toilet seat.  It insinuates not only does he see like the fanny coming toward him but the odor too.

 

I know, I'm sick, but I just envision my big fanny backing up (like a dump or trash truck and how big it must look to that tiny (the size of a tiny lego) toy......I'm sorry I'm laughing as I type this.


annabelle -

 

The "we are 18" commercial was just too much. It was the first time we'd seen it. You know how some channels tend to show "adult" commercials at a certain time at night? We were shocked, bc it wasn't all that late when we saw it the first time. Of course, it was telling people to online and/or call the #.

There's a new ad out for kitty litter.  The family comes through the front door and the mother and two kids make the most disgusting faces I've ever seen.  I can't look at it and put my hand over my eyes the minute it starts.

That's the worst commercial I've ever seen.

Re: I detest this TV ad

I hate any commercial that shows children with cancer, it hits too close to home. Lived through that. Upsetting to me, quickly switch channels.

I think the absolute most disgusting commercial is where three young women are standing in front of topiary plants, strategically placed where their bikini bottom covers and they are shaving the topiary! It is so wrong I can't believe it's allowed on tv!  I'm not a total pudge, but it so closely resembles them shaving their private parts that it is this side of porn! Ok, not that bad, but, yuck!

I'm in my 60's, but I don't mind the GEICO commercial.  In fact, I think it's really funny.  And I think the kid who plays Peter Pan is really good in it.  Now, there are plenty other commercials that I don't like and don't watch.  A lot of them I don't even understand, like some of the car commercials.

Those very strange Snyders pretzel commercials with that positively evil looking woman beating up the pretzels. Love their pretzels, hate their commercials, and I wrote the company to tell them so.

The most recent on my detest list is the one for a medicine called Entresto, I believe.

 

Starts out with some creepy looking old man standing in front of a window singing "Tomorrow" from Annie.   I can't stand that song and that guy only makes it worse.
