worst adverts on tv or radio?

edited January 2010 in The Shed
Adverts tend to be annoying at the best of times, but some simply take the biscuit! 

I cannot stand the advert that is running just now warning us of the pitfalls of buying medicines online.  You know the one... a guy pops a pill, then proceeds to pull a dead rat from his mouth.  Hate it!

What other adverts get under peoples skin?  lets see if any patterns emerge...

    I would NEVER even consider going to their website purely because of this advert. Unfortunately if it comes on when my 18 month daughter's in the room I have to watch it cos she loves it, any other time the mute button is hit quicker than a speeding bullet!

    Trebor - We're going to make a gum

    Good for them, what a pants advert.

    What's REALLY annoying is how they had to change the words to the recently revived Milky Way ad.

    And I'm stuck with that song in my head now.... "The red car and the blue car had a race.."

    Why did they change the words? I'm sure it used to be "But smart old blue he took the Milky way" now it's good old blue.

    PC gone mad!

    Because you're not allowed to call him "smart" for eating a choc bar or say it won't spoil your appetite.

    lol great responses.

    i hate the go compare one too, so glad that was mentioned. the meerkat ones are better, so thats my preferred comparrison site.

    I also hate the newer cadbury advert with the big head with cocoa beans. it just bugs me. And on the radio, I am sick of the autoglass adverts, with keith or kevin or whatever his name is... And the garmin adverts with the stupid song.  I'm going to get a tomtom just to spite them!

    I hate all the ringtone ones on the music channels!!

    "Get these cool tones for your phone ... for Hey Girl, You betta' check your text... send FUN1 to double 8 triple 8"

    and all them text your post code to blah blah and speak to hot fit girls in your area!!... they obviously haven't been to North Wales and if they class Liverpool as "local" have you ever seen a fit scouser after shes opened her mouth? they all sound like Jamie Carragher!

    Really hate any food advert when i'm peckish!... need i say any more?

    And the Microsoft ad's... I'm a PC and I created Windows 7.. no you didn't otherwise you'd be sayin I'm a PC from a penthouse suite somewhere in Monaco

    But the rat one! is just awful! I can't watch it and when your eating at the same time.... come on!! 

    I'm a flicker though, try to avoid the ads :D

    what about the one - oooh guys, we have too many women on our dating agency, if your 20 ring..... if your 30 ring .... etc, like its really them lol probably some granny doing the ironing lol
  • edited November 2009
    go compare.....

    whats the worst thing is not the music.... watch closely there is a guy in every shot in the cafe, he moves seats each time to be in each shot , he is out of time with every other extra, once you have noticed him you will see him every time the bleeding advert is on ... jeeeze now  you will hate it with the sound down you will just keep watching the twit who is out of sync with the rest of the paid muppets.

    im really glad sum1 started this thread, there are some adverts that dont even make gramatical sense, and some of the dubbed voices are just astounding, one of  my worst is confused.com, my god, that stupid blonde women just talking constant rubbish, posing for the camra, pulling stupid faces, telling you to sell your soul for car insurance, annoys me like nothing else., oh, and that "catch a goat youve pulled phone ad, oh my god, makes u wanna scream after uve seen it more then 5 times.
  • edited November 2009
    oh yeh, good adverts include, all honda ads, audi, cant think of any more, the moon pig ad makes me laugh, just cus it ses moonpig about 20 times in it.
  • edited November 2009
    I hated the go compare ad so much I actually dedicated a thread to it a few weeks ago.  Whats with these cash 4 gold ads. They are quite annoying, or that injury claims ad where that woman slips on some spilt water and does her knee in.
  • edited November 2009
    Don't know why exactly but the advert for Yahoo.com gets on my nerves, seems to go on forever. Or is that just me thinking it.

    Really hate the Strongbow one where it's like a war movie.  "you mr sattelite dish man, you bring us pets do the funniest things" what tosh.
  • edited November 2009
    I hate that go compare advert but now find myself wanting to see it to check out the daft extra.

    The latest radio advert i cant stand is the one for peugeot vans.  The one with the guy telling us that it used to be that if he was hot he took off his shirt, and if he wanted to talk on the phone while in the van, he drove using his elbows.  That was just the way it was back then apparently!

    What a rubbish advert, and is there a need for it to be played TWICE in the same advert break???
