Worst Commercials You’ve Ever Seen

[QueenCobra]

Also…those gummy bear commercials with actors whose voices are dubbed with kids’ voices. They had one set in a board meeting, but the most recent is football players and they say cringey stuff like “they’re so squishable!” and “this flavor is more gooder!”

There are a bunch I don't like, but they were either already mentioned in this thread or I forgot. But I know for sure (and agree with everyone here) that the new Burger King commercials are annoying LOL! I don't watch TV but my dad does, and they would come up pretty often. Let me tell ya, the worst "BK have it your way" ad was when they start it off with "BK Meeeeeeelts!" omg T^T

Those melts commercials are torture

OK, so this is not one specific commercial, BUT I feel nauseous every time I see that Mucinex blob.

I thought of another one that's a local commercial, and it's so bad I mute the TV whenever it comes on... like yeah, the first thing I'm thinking about during Valentine's Day is lawyers...

Whoever decided to give the turtles teeth…why? I prefer their natural beaks, even if CGI.

I think that club crackers commercial with the girl singing a weird song about the crackers is really annoying.

And that stupid whiskey commercial where they’re like “we had a perfect recipe, so we burned it and made a new one.” One of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. Why would you destroy something for no reason? It’s not badass, it’s just STUPID!

Not sure if it counts but anything AI made me want to puke like you wouldn't believe...

Also, every Progressive commercial

I never found Flo funny and never will. Also, when Progressive decided to add even more annoying characters to their fictional universe…I was like, “Seriously?” Also, none of their scenarios are funny.

I’d rather deal with Progressive ads than a certain other insurance company’s ads that have actually utilized blackface before AND even racial stereotypes yet no one else ever called them out on those ads and it’s even worse that those two ads came out less than ten years ago!

Oh jeez! If you don’t mind me asking, what is the company? Is it based in the United States?

I refuse to say the company’s name because it instantly makes me angry and seeing anything associated with them also makes me very angry.

I'm glad I have no idea who that is.

Those Mattress Firm “All Night Long” commercials might be the second worst use of the song, preceded by the Cilla Black Christmas special.

That one guy who takes his shoes off and puts his feet up next to the person on the airplane...UGH! So gross

The only time I ever take my shoes off on a plane is if I’m flying internationally to and from Taiwan because it’s such a long flight. I keep them on the ground so at to respect my neighbor’s personal space.

That seal person thing that was a page back was very weird and creepy..

I do feel like I see a lot less long ads than I use to. Most ads I see are pretty much like a poster in a side bar on the screen.

There was this one for pants and I saw it while watching something on a streaming service a few months ago. I really didn't like the ad and it was difficult to tell what the ad was even for until the very end because of the logo shown was the only reason how I figured it out. And even then it took a minute. I thought maybe the ad was about underwear because that would explain why she just waltzed in a laundry mat and starting taking her pants off in front of everyone lol and then sat in her white underwear and white t shirt and jean hat but it wasn't. And the brand didn't make underwear, so at first I thought maybe they started making underwear because they already make pants, jackets, and hats.
Obviously it isn't the worst ad I've seen I'm sure, but ads that are hard to know what is being advertised, to me, is a bad ad. Luckily I don't run into them very often at all.

There's one commercial that fills me with rage every time I remember it. It's the commercials for the third Madagascar movie. I wasn't interested in the series really to begin with, and the Nickelodeon played that commercial over. and. over. The song that played in it would get stuck in my head, and I hated it.

Recently, Disney's ad of "Think of what life would be like without us, wouldn't that be sad?" has been kind of annoying me. Mostly because it first shows a clip from Star Wars: A New Hope, which they only own the rights to it now, they didn't make it. Disney not existing would not have affected the original trilogy at all.

Ra-da-da-da-da Afro circus! Afro circus! Oh god I remember that lol.

I feel like a lot of commercials are just really out there or just a way for people to try to normalize behaviors or things they like which shouldn't be normalized.

I don't know if anyone likes this one, but I don't because it was played so much. Also that guy just ditched his pet. So he kinda sucks.

OMG I see this dinosaur commercial all the time! I know it’s supposed to represent asthma, but I end up feeling bad for it. There’s a similar one (not sure for what product) where the disease is represented by a big blue monster that acts like a dog. I felt bad for that one, too.

I don’t see Xyzal commercials anymore, but I hate them for a personal reason. The owl reminded me of Alfred Molina, so I thought he was hot. I got embarrassed every time it came on lol.
