rockpile Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 My vote is for Mohegan Sun (mostly on YES network). I have been there two or three times and really enjoyed myself, but if all I saw was their commercials I would NEVER go there! What commercials bug you the most, specifically because they make something good look really BAD?
Indy Dave Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 The "get dunked on by Patrick Chewing" Snickers commercial sucks. But I am not boycotting Snickers.
Blaise321 Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 I 'd have to say the Klondike Bar commercial where the teen boy is eating the ice cream while massaging the old womans feet.
Arkady Renko Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 I 'd have to say the Klondike Bar commercial where the teen boy is eating the ice cream while massaging the old womans feet. Teen boy? The guy is probably around 40.

The guy is probably around 40. You are correct. I posted that nearing 1:00 am and things weren't quite as clear as they are now.
Steely Dan Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 The "get dunked on by Patrick Chewing" Snickers commercial sucks. But I am not boycotting Snickers. In fact a lot of those Snickers commercials suck! OT, but my doctor told me I wasn't getting enough Nougat in my diet and prescribed three Snickers a day. Most commercials don't bug me because I mostly tune them out. The Patrick Chewing one does annoy me though.

The Patrick Chewing one does annoy me though. I won't defend the Snickers campaign (as it is pretty weird) except to say I kind of like the way they use the packaging, but not the Snicker's name. There is a really good point to be made here (about how familiar and comforting the packaging has become) but I'm not sure they are doing the best job of making that point. There are quite a few commercials that are horrible, but I have to think it there are any for products/services I actually like.
buckeyemike Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 OT, but my doctor told me I wasn't getting enough Nougat in my diet and prescribed three Snickers a day. I really have to wonder what nougat is made out of.

Steely Dan Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nougat Nobody, I would think, wanted a serious answer here? Well, it is the south. These are Krass Brothers Commercials I remember seeing on TV in the Philly area growing up. I couldn't find my favorite which is Mr. Krass lying in a coffin with his hands folded and suddenly he sits upright and says "If you don't buy from Krass Brothers, YOU'RE DEAD!" One Two
WVUFootball29 Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Nobody, I would think, wanted a serious answer here? Who said I was being serious?
Steely Dan Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Who said I was being serious? Your psychiatrist told me you were a serious case, seriously.
Fezmid Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 So black people and rednecks shop at the store. Got it. I knew there was a reason I DVR everything and rarely watch commercials... EDIT: I don't think I could ever live in NC.... "Did you get a DWI? Well we got SCOOTERS!"
Quester74 Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 Every single Burger King commercial with "The King" in it.. I refuse to visit another BK until they abolish that moronic ad campaign/mascot.
GOBILLS78 Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 So black people and rednecks shop at the store. Got it. I knew there was a reason I DVR everything and rarely watch commercials... EDIT: I don't think I could ever live in NC.... "Did you get a DWI? Well we got SCOOTERS!" Haha. The commercial was youtube-only. It was obviously made with tongue firmly planted in cheek. I thought they were both funny in an awkward kind of way. But hey, what do I know -- I live in N.C.!
apuszczalowski Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 The Old Navy Mannequins. DING! DING! DING! We have a winner Also, add in for anyone local in Niagara, the Commercials for Marineland in Niagra Falls. Almost everyone in the area knows that stupid jingle and wants to throw something at the TV/Radio when they come on. Its one reason why I don't like summer much
