TV ads that drive you crazy

[cornflakecrunchie]

I mean, how many sweets must Haribo sell, to be able to afford to show their irritating ads SO often?

People wrapping themselves in newly washed duvets so perfumed that they're "never giving it back" or are carried off wrapped in bedclothes.

There's a new one I posted about yesterday for Sofology. A mom and daughter are in a pet shop choosing a Guinea pig, they reject several and then get a colour swatch out and it turns out they want one in rusty brown to match their new sofa!
Don't know why but it just annoyed me.

Tres tidy. Lotta shite.

I'm so glad I started this thread.
I thought it was just me who got the rage! Loving all your posts.

That's a bit vile though. But yeah, it is annoyingly funny! 😆

OMG that is fecking awful! It's on every ad break when you play Channel 4 On Demand! So it's hard to avoid.

'Errrr I think you, as an employer, should tell me what the salary is.....' 'no you say what you want.' 'But you tell me what it is please.' 'But YOU need to tell me what you want.' 'But maybe you could give me an idea.' 'No YOU!'

Fecking daft, annoying ad. And he has an annoying pinched little face! 😆

The Specsavers ads with Bev & Barry. Absolutely excruciating

Any perfume/aftershave ad, the fundamental problem being that if I can't smell the product, (and its smell is the only reason it exists) how the hell can I decide whether I'd want to buy it??!!! Johnny Depp needs a good wash, and clearly Sauvage smells. Also any gambling ad, particularly the guy that looks like Del Boy dancing and singing. I can just about tolerate the Omaze ads now the voice over has changed. Original woman's intonation was weird and irritating. The holiday advert with the fat family that endlessly appeared during the ad breaks for the masked singer. I had to mute this and look away every time this was on. I tend to watch BBC, and record programmes from the other channels to avoid the ads.But even the BBC now has trailers for its own programmes that are more like adverts, and I get fed up with these,.

Yeah I just laugh imagining the actors having to face their colleagues in their day job! 🤣

That Direct Cremation one where the woman is hovering outside the bathroom banging on to her husband, who is in the bath, about the lovely funeral they’ve just been to. Why on earth wouldn’t she just go in and sit on the loo to talk to him?

@TY78910 that’s the actors who were in When Harry met Sally re-enacting a scene from the film

All of them .

Thankfully I haven’t seen it recently but the Daisy Daisy fuckin Daisy Ad ground my gears ! 😩

That bloody virgin train puppet.......

All of them. No idea what three-quarters of them are about. BBC is just as bad with its trailers.

Out of curiosity..is your username from the Specials record Gangsters?

A smart cookie that Millie
Ooo sausage rolls.
I hate that advert with a passion,it's on so bloody often I know the bloody words!

Ahhhh okay that makes more sense!

The Jude Law one with Uber Eats, which is looping endlessly on one streaming app.

He’s known for one twee romantic film, why does this mean he’s a romcom hero? He’s not! He’s a has-been nanny shagger!

lol did you not recognise Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal?

Vogue S and her bloody washing powder
Any Flash advert
The cheap gambling ones with the woman with long curly ginger hair, I reckon the budget was £50 per ad!

It’s annoying when you watch anything on catchup because they play the same frigging ad every break so you see it 4 or 5 times🤬

Most adverts actually work in reverse on me - I hate them so much I’ll refuse to buy a product!

Nope!! Not my generation 😬

The ‘give us your money’ adverts play loads on daytime TV especially during older viewer friendly programmes- they’re obvs targeting the pensioners which pisses me off.

I’ve looked all through the thread and haven’t seen it! Can’t believe no one’s mentioned the Fage Yoghurt ad with the 2 kids. I so hate it.

It’s Fa-YEH

Lol, my 20 year old niece wouldn't recognise them. Are you gen z?
