It also gets to me how the voice in that ad is so seductive sounding...

A classic example is the Head on ad. xD

I completely forgot about HeadOn.  Do they even make that crap anymore?

I haven't seen commercials for HeadOn in about two years, but I still see ads for other products by the same company, such as RenewIn.

The commercial may be crap, but HeadOn actually works.  It does relieve headaches (or it could have just been in my head :P )

I don't think I'll ever use HeadOn after how much it was advertised in 2006-2007. Besides, I rarely ever get headaches.

Any commericals that show the pointless phone number for a stupid product. I will change the channel if they starting showing that. I never care about the phone number and there's no need to say it over and over. <_<
Sorry for bumping, BTW.

Every last corny J.G. Wentworth commercial. Remember the Opera version thereof? That same version is now taking place on a city bus.

Everytime I see either commercial, I mute it and do my Tazmanian Devil impression. "Bla-blah-blah-bla-bla. BLA-BL-BL-BLA-BL-BLA-BLAAAAAHHHH!!!"

Actually, I hate all the non-program commercials cause I'm possibly the biggest commercial hater ever. Nobody wanna know how to take to get to the center of a tootsie pop (no one care), or repeat phone numbers over and over again. I only like a few (like 10 commercials).

The "Mr. Opportunity" Honda commercials are back for the sixth consecutive year. Come up with something new already!  :hammer:
Again for the 7th consecutive year. They always bring it back in the summer for some reason.

As companies lose more and more money, they'll show more and more commercials.

They are kinda weird, but I kinda like the one where he was driving a pink car and rear ended that lady's car in the parking lot and he was pretending to be a teenage girl with road rage. The weirdest one though was when he was a girl jogger and he said something like the guy driver was distracted by his pink headband.  :P Why are they so fixated on him pretending to be a girl in every situation?
