OT: What company has the dumbest commercials?

Icemantbi · Nov 23, 2007

Dumbest commercials? That's easy. Any Canucks on here should agree with me that the FutureShop commercials are atrocious and are annoying as hell, with that stupid geek dancing when when the doors open.

Verizon Juke with that guy dancing

I nominate those UPS whiteboard commercials. Get under my skin for some reason.

Agree with Viking, ESPNs are the best. The fanhood ones are pretty f'in funny.

Dont know which is the worste, but Jack Link's "Messing with Sasquatch" series has to be some of the funniest shit ever.

Stick to football cause you cant act. Dork.

Tie for first between those fucking stupid Charles Schwab "cartoon" commercials and the eternally stupid IBM "business" ads.

I hate pretty much any commercial that are for a financial service firm or foreign car companies. Also hate those stupid diamond commercials that come out of the woodwork like roaches this time of year.

I agree about the Charles Schwab 'cartoon" commercials. Not only are the people poorly drawn but they are the worst actors/actresses in the business. So phony!

Those new Old Spice ahoy commercials are very annoying

that new ESPN commercial is great with Jim Kelly waiting on Venatieri to get all his rings out for metal detector.
ESPN has the best commercials.

Certainly some great ones. This one reminds me of Clemens at the copier, making copies of a "K" poster. "I'll be a while", he says. Classic.

Worst commercials going are the Cuba Gooding/Michael Jordan Haines underwear ads.

No lie I just threw a pair of one time worn Haines boxers out like 45 minutes ago. I was like holy shit this is worse than seeing the Patriots win and drinking Pabst put together.

I like to be comfortable. That shit aint right. Who is Mike and Cuba fooling.

BUMP. Just saw that Visa "When the Saints go marching in" commercial. It's giving the chevy "This is our country" ones a run for their money.

how has nobody said Dr. peper. Seriously if I have to see that fat guy pull a dr. peper out of his sock and start dancing around 1 more time I'm going to kill somebody. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't on every time there was a commercial break.

I agree.

On a similar note, some good commercials get down-right annoying when they are on every 15 minutes. That one with the 2 guys sitting in the car calling out their favorite artist and having the song play is one of them. I thought it was cool when I first saw it but when that kid's voice breaks when he says "Korn" is just getting to me.
