You know the company and what they’re offering. You're all complaining that the jingles are so well done you can’t forget them. Sounds like good advertising to me. Yep 8 hours ago, Ridgewaycynic2013 said: They sure do push the daylights out of that Game Time 550 beer. Even worse is the spot where the two 'beer experts' are describing the beer's merits and characteristics. Also annoying is how commercials are now edited, so there's virtually no space between words. The annoying girl who pesters me to look up Scott Caldwell for my GEICO insurance comes to mind. Edited to add a commercial for some day spa that ran during the holiday season in 2016 or 2017 where the ever earnest 'Buddy Schula' was describing the disappointment in his wife's face when he got her passes for a 'lesser' spa. It was only later I discovered 'Buddy Schula' is an invented character. Damn near hired Celino and Barnes to sue the asshat for false advertising! What's next you're going to tell me Sandy Beach or Pat Hammer are made up names! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plenzmd1 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 i listen to about an hour or two a day, but always, always on the app and on demand. Outside of an ad for a various podcast at the start of the hour, no commercials. Awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagon127 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Aurora Audiology is the only commercial I turn the radio off for. I just listen to the hum of my engine, and make sure that sounds ok for the entire time that commercial runs. The rest, I'm sick of hearing the same thing over and over again. I'm sick of how a company like Geico can equally advertise to get people to buy their insurance, and also to get a job there. Hey their programming is free, so I guess were stuck with their commercials. The worst commercials are the ads that run on MSG during sabres games. I think there are only 5 ads that run on repeat every single commercial break. For that reason I welcome when the games are on NBC sports network.

It’s like being in a time warp. Seems like the national average would be about 20% of radio ads using a jingle. I think it’s like 80% on GR. A couple comments on this point: 1) If you can, listen an hour late each day to the programming of your choice. You can listen pre-recorded that way, reduce an hour show to 40 minutes, and all commercials are automatically edited out. I like to listen to Schopp & Bulldog each day, but try to listen all of it "tape delayed" as it goes faster and there are no commercials. 2) I couldn't agree more with the "time warp" comment. Some of the custom made songs for local WNY businesses, presumably made by WNY advertisers, are out of the 1950s. They are just so outdated and not hip/current in their sound, you wonder who the hell is creating the stuff. 3) There are some commercials made for radio that are just instant headache manufacturers, where you have a lot of harsh voices talking really fast in an annoying cacophony of sound, in a hammer-over-the head staccato fashion. That is usually followed up by even worse speed reading of the legal disclaimer at the end. I usually rush to hit "mute" on my laptop as fast as I hear these, so as to avoid said headache. I often wonder what company would sign off on such an ad, as it casts the company in the worst possible light. 4) WNY is a small market and you can clearly hear the same few voices doing all of the singing in these weirdo 1950s songs on GR-55. 5) Remember how freaking bad John Gurtler was as the voice of the Sabres for a while? Listen for him doing voiceovers on GR-55 ads; he is on there quite a bit. You'll recognize his voice right away if you remember him from his Sabres days.

Seasons1992 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 One specific thing is how anyone doing reads has to say the size of the wine bottles after the price, for Premier and Outlet Liquors. "$4.99 for a 750-milliliter bottle." Bugs me a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
