Haven't had one of these in a while.

I have been seeing this one for months (I watch a lot of DIY and HGTV) and it drives me nuts every time. I'm sure this is how a lot of kids these days are growing up.

In real life, I'm sure that loan officer would have told her to leave. A "Meanwhile back in reality" version of this commercial would be humorous.

 
Does every commercial or sitcom require the clumsy goofball guy married to the smart successful hot chick?

I hate it. Every guy is a brain dead moron who cant microwave a meal while every woman is smart and and can do no wrong.
 
My least favorite for a while has been the all state safe driving bonus ad where the girlfriend is asking the boyfriend about if men are better drivers, why did she get this safe driving bonus check, and then shoves it in his face, as though this one anecdotal story disproves that hypothesis. Which is also a very common thing for women, specifically my wife, to do.
 
I can't stand the one where the woman is laying on a chaise lounge chair and keeps saying chaaaaaaaisssssse.
I want to reach into the tv and smack the husband for buying her it.

Yeah, that one has been out for a while but I agree. Bish you got a safe bonus check, let's not lose our gotdamn minds here.

Terrible.

I am detecting a trend with these commercials, though. I can't put my finger on it.
 
Four words: "Hannah and her horse." I mean, come on, they ditched the Rob Lowe series of commercials (which were great) for this garbage?

The main ones I don't like are the ones comparing their bad to cars to other good cars.

A) The Chrysler car commercials with the Japanese/German voiceovers who are so frustrated or surprised that the car being shown is a Chrysler, and not one of their better cars. Like anyone is going to be fooled that a Chrysler 200 is better than a BMW or Lexus!!

B) The Chevy commercials where people are sitting in their car and saying "This is just like a (insert luxury brand car here)!!" No it's not! Maybe someone moving from a 1980 Caprice Wagon to a 2015 Impala might feel that way, but no one that's ever sat in, or driven on of the more expensive brands is ever going to get into a Chevy and think "Yeah, this is the same thing!"

Get out of my head!

The Chevy commercial is terrible. No one is sitting in those cars and not realizing that it's a Chevy. ESPECIALLY When the logo isn't even covered. Get real.
 
Not really recent but I hate the recurring commericals (mostly on the radio) for Lexus or "Jag-U-uar" narrated by a guy with the phony high-society voice.

I do like the Xfinity commercial with the tough-looking farmer talking about drawing a bath and seeing where the night takes him.

The the Chevy one where idiots sit in the car and say inane things like "this is so dope, I thought it was a BMW" makes me want to punch babies.

She's pretty much perfect, but what the hell are those commercials?! I kinda think the advertising folks are messing with everyone by saying we will make the absolutely stupidest commercials ever but you will still like them because of Hannah Davis. They're right.
 
Like the OP, I watch a lot of HGTV/DIY and I cannot stand the Wayfair commercials. That usually results in a change in channel.
 
Not a television commercial, but I'm going to throw this out there: those mf'ing zyppah spots that are run on sports talk radio around the clock it seems. I hate that mf'er's voice.
 
I literally want to scream when the Sonic commercials come on with those two dweebs in the car. And the phone commercials with the two technogeeks makes me want to hurl.
 
The newest campaign from buick is pretty annoying.

Essentially they are saying, "we finally made a halfway decent looking automobile, and because all of the cars we made up until now are so shitty, you wouldn't even recognize this new decent looking car as a buick.

This. And they play back to back a lot for some reason
 
"THAT's NOT A BUICK! That's what I told her!"

Good lord I hate those Buick commercials with a passion. So freaking annoying.
 
The local tally idiotic car salesman. Outrageously stupid. That commercial guarantees that I would never step foot on their property if the frighing car was free

This is an age-old advertising gimmick where the advertiser tries to give you comfort, or assurance, that an obviously-incorrect proposition is "ok." See, if other idiots say Chevy is better than BMW, then you should feel comfortable saying or thinking the same thing.

FSU is using this right now, as it tries to tell you that Chief Walmart and the ridiculous uniform "upgrades" are actually improvements. They clearly aren't, but FSU is hoping some of the "followers" will get in line and repeat the same absurd message.

Didn't Matthew McConaughey make some annoying Buick commercials?
 
Although I agree the Buick commercials are cheesy as hell, I have to admit the product is damn good. Bought an Enclave back in October, and it's easily the best car I've ever owned.
 
Kurland Culpepper commercials are awful.

I am annoyed by all the lawyer commercials where they describe themselves as aggressive. Mike Tyson is aggressive, that doesn't mean he is a good lawyer. Oh, and as long as I am talking about lawyer commercials, Morgan and Morgan saturates the market with annoying ads. "For the people" translates to we make millions off of idiots.
 
Unfortunately, John Morgan has now saturated the Nashville ambulance chaser market.

Does the Family Auto Mart guys still run those 30 minute infomercials? I used to love watching him on Saturday mornings.
