Well,we all have it around us all the time.I just really hate it.To have a break every 10min in a movie just ruins the whole experience completely to me [Mad] I just installed a digital TV tuner some days ago,and it is already really getting on my nerves [Eek!] If this keeps up,i think i have to give up television altogether.

Actually it has gotten so bad,i strictly avoid many products just because of their stupid advertisement nagging on and on,quite the opposite result in other words.(in my case anyway though)

However,once in a while there is a few ones who just are so well done/funny you just got to love it.

So maybe you have a few ones to share?Here are a couple from me:

Bear.

Ford

BTW i think anything goes in this forum,but if tv commercials is not allowed,i hope the moderators notice me/delete the Topic [Wink]

I hear you, sometimes when I am watching TV, the length of commercials is so long that my ADD kicks in, I will turn it to another channel and forget what I was watching.

I found this commercial I never saw beack then, it makes me giggle.

I love the commercials of the 80's....we are always saying how horrible today's commercials are...infact my husband and my mother mute them...and that actually drives me crazy...I'd rather not even look at them. All the TV commercials today are for some sort of prescription medication, cell phones, and insurance companies....you never see cool cereal commercials, pop commercials that are cool like:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2QZW1mexhQ

I love this commercial, because Burger King was where I worked in the 80's...when I was a senior, and I wore the exact style of the outfit that Elisabth Shue has on:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZpu9xquXtI

I loved the commercials for hair products too:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNxE-fMx4uI&feature=related

I can't think of any commercials from today that stick out in my mind except this one:

The whole Jack Links Messin' With sasquatch campaign is very funny.

The ones from Canada where Sasquatch shows what all the different penalties are is some of the funniest commercials I've ever seen

Remember this commercial???

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJX0Mf5pBwU

The only commercial that is current today that I have to hear about constantly is the Free Credit Commercial....my son knows it word for word:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgTnzLs55D4

He knows them all. That one reminds me of Brad Hamilton in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

Commercials today are much cleverer and more memorable than they used to be - certainly here in the UK. There's a few that are brain-splittingly annoying, but most of the more creative ones are very funny and very clever - much more memorable, effective, and lasting than the ones from way back when.

Or even better Brooke Shields "You wanna know what comes between me and my Calvins....Nothing."

I Love Cherry 7-Up...I remember that commercial, that was so cute.

That's what I am talking about with commercials...the "pink" effect they did, was neat...and the kids were cute...and the song was nice. That's what you never see any more.

I just looked at all the Cherry 7-up commercials...they are all awesome.

I also loved Pan Pizza at Pizza Hunt in the 80's. We always stopped there on our way home from Kennywood Park...at midnight and got pan pizza.

Now I hate it...I don't understand what happens with food....do they change the taste of stuff?
