Any of them. We switched to streaming years ago. Recently when watched something on commercial TV it was as if we'd lost our minds. Who puts up with this?

Glad they've reintroduced the Geico caveman in at least one commercial. Should have never abandoned that theme.

The commercials and the product. Nobody needs that garbage anyway.
The need is real. The products are shtie. I'm just waiting for the lawsuits to start over semaglutide when they find out whatever cancer it causes.

Here suffering person, take this 10k dollar pill and it will subdue your psoriasis for a bit. All you have to do is trade away your liver and get cancer. Yeah, sure.

Agreed. They're running out of stupid names as well. They all sound like one of Rich Halls sniglets.

Speaking of pharmaceutical commercials, the names of theses “medicines” sound like the morning line favorite that runs 5th in the Kentucky Derby.

Mounjaro? Overhyped horse who got caught up in a pace duel and faded to 11th down the stretch. Can’t believe he was the 5/2 favorite off his Bluegrass Stakes win.

Skyrizi? Wise guy horse. Really been impressing the clockers and railbirds during morning works. *Proceeds to run 5th, picking off tiring horses down the stretch but was never a real factor.*

NFL football is absolutely less enjoyable to watch during election season.

Yes, for the 1987th time, I know Mark Robinson is a nut and Josh Stein is a woke cuck. Another 500 ads aren’t gonna give me any new information.

Any commercial that involves talking babies or adults that sound like babies is an instant boycott

Pretty much the same as anytime a Pink song is used in an movie preview

The hate filled clips of society yelling at each other . But Jesus loves you.

If Jesus wanted a commercial that wouldn’t make it past the PR department.

“All the cool stuff I can do without AI and you chose this? Jesus Christ”

Any ad using AI actors. If they're not real people, it's insulting to my intelligence (what little I have) to sit and be captive.

Got another one for the list.

This new What the World Needs Now ad that seems to be run on every single commercial break.

Kids with cancer ads. Its terrible; it's sad. But why must I watch this before the movie showing or before watching a sports clip?

I don't like insurance ADs but I liked Dennis Heysbert's Allstate ADs. Old school approach. Great voice. Stand up guy (and AADA -American Academy Dramatic Arts trained)

The Discover ad with Stifler's mom doing the 80's hair band look is so f-king stupid and I don't know what the sound she makes at the end is supposed to be l? That "nyah,nyah, nyah" is it supposed to be a guitar? supposed to be funny? I hate it.
She tries too hard to sound stupid when in all reality it just comes natural for her without forcing the act.

I literally will refuse to watch anything she is in... movie, tv series, commercial... anything. I don't care what she's slinging in any given commercial, I'm never buying it. I don't know why any company agrees to pay her for any such roles or services. Her mere presence is surefire way to convince me not to watch the show, or buy the product.

Has anyone ever bought something because of a YouTube ad? Not only are they extremely annoying but they are genuinely terrible. It must have the worst roi of any marketing out there.
I’m fascinated with the ROI for the money spent on advertising.

I get a restaurant as that can be visually appealing but who is buying their insurance cause of a commercial? Or a brand of batteries? And how is having an annoying ad effective if the consumer associates your brand negatively?

There’s local commercials and national commercials that make me want to rip my ears off. Local wise- 🖕 you Dan Cummins.
