Most hated adverts

[StockpotSoup]

I’m sure we’ve had this thread before, but there are always new shit adverts 😁

My least favourite at the moment is the new Sainsbury’s ad where the boy says, “Daaaaaad…” and the dad cuts in with “Don’t say it!” before the boy asks what’s for dinner. Flummoxed looking dad then turns to the camera and asks “Any ideas, Sainsbury’s?”

What’s that all about? Is it really an outlandish question for a child to ask? It’s not like he wants to go to Disney World. It isn’t unusual for children to expect to be fed, and quite why the dad is so bewildered at the idea of having to think of something when dinner happens every day of every year, I can’t imagine.

What are your most hated ads?

awwww Rylan

he got a haircut-and-a-job and the rest as they say , is history

Miss Dior perfume ad with screaming woman going 'Waaaaaaaaaa-aaaah Ba-byyyyyy!!!!!!!!!' Year after year after year. It's too loud, she screams like a ruddy banshee. It's obscene, the caterwauling. I hate the bulky pee pants, I hate the people in the supermarket yelling 'You've got the power!'. I hate 'breathe happy, Febreeze, la la la la la', Who goes 'la la la la la' in real life? I don't want to see babies' bums, or any babies come to that. I hate any ad with 'always keep away from children' in it. I TRY to keep away from children but because they are always free range these days, it's hard to keep away from them because they won't keep away from me!

Voucher Codes ad with the woman's head popping through a fruit bowl and other places.

The On The Beach advert. They're still showing that advert with the fat boy stuffing his face with free food in the complimentary airport lounge. If that family turned up by the pool it could ruin your holiday. Or give you something to laugh at I guess.

@ADadofa9yearoldgirl It's hard to believe that ad actually attracts people to their product, but I suppose their must be families out there who think "Great, a holiday where the kids can stuff their faces, splash people in the pool and annoy people on the beach. They're gonna love it".

Ooh, I’m always happy to see this thread resurrected!

My new additions to the list:

The Amazon Christmas ad (which thankfully we’ll never be subjected to again) where the theatre caretaker is singing to himself while sweeping up, inspiring an usherette to buy him a tuxedo and force him into giving a concert for all the staff. Well, that wouldn’t be the most cringe making experience of your life, would it? And absolutely nobody would be sat there thinking “We could be in the pub now, FFS”, oh no…

Andrew Garfield advertising Sky. No, Mr Ad Man - making someone say “telly” in an American accent is NOT cute.

Dominic West’s Nationwide ads. He can’t possibly need the money that badly!

Yes that theatre worker! He can't bloody sing!

The Confused.com adverts with that bloody whistling. Stfu!!!

The whistling one for phones is annoying !

Most annoying advert for me at the moment hands down is the Papaya advert with the man on the swing and the song The First Time Ever I saw Your Face. It seems to be on every advert break at the moment and that song is just so annoying.

Bulky Pee Pants!!!

I don't know why there's currently a fashion in ads to take perfectly good songs and slow them down, getting miserable sounding people to sing them. There's a few of them about at the moment.

Any Tui ad (thank God for YouTube's "skip" button).

They do it on purpose I swear.

It's the song Will sings round the campfire on the Inbetweeners film. It's just such a mushy song.

Definitely the Einstein Angela Rippon Smart Metre one, isn't she full of herself and the music and the irritating show off that she is, also that stupid music on the confused advert

Yes notice this a lor more on the not very often event of me waiting for a show to start Say the snooker is on at 1pm its always always delayed bbc trailers and self promotion is longer than ITV Commercial adverts

Long time since anyone used this thread, but some awful adverts at the minute so thought it might be worth revisiting, so, can anyone tell me what those awful KFC adverts are about, especially the one with the egg and the person dipped in whatever it is and the new Lynx ad, dreadful

All the gambling ones. Every single one of them.

Lenor Unstoppables with the hair whooshing about.

Aye they leave out the bit how to lose money from the comfort of your own home.

Ugh, totally agree with this.

I hate all perfume ads. Current one I hate is the Natalie Portman one 'what would you do for love?' Yeah, not dancing on a table when someone is trying to eat their lunch!

It’s the fact the mother accepts the chocolate too knowing the kid has no money. Did she think it was stolen?

Currently really disliking the Magnum ice cream ad with the woman & cat. I've never seen anyone in real life chew ice cream like she does. Also the new Tetley teabag ad where a woman tells a man she's ovulating. Oh, and while I'm here the "gush" period pad ad. I used to have very heavy periods but I don't think I've ever felt a "gush".

The Viking river cruise one, where the woman so exaggerates the I in Viking, and so sounds as if she’s just had a course of elocution lessons. Not that I’ve anything against RP, as long as it’s ‘normal’ RP!

Or groomed (no racist intent)
