Oh,. those FreeCreditReport.com commercials make me want to throw something! I absolutely hate them - they make my skin crawl. I also
hate the yogurt commercial where the woman in the grocery store sucks the stuff out of the container then looks around with that stupid look on her face. I
think the commercial is obscene and she makes me want to slap her one.

I hope everyone else joins in and tells us what commercials annoy them the most. Since it really bothers us, may be we can get *some* enjoyment out of writing about it! |

That's funny, I actually like the Free Credit Report commercials! I agree with the rest of the list though. I really hate all the Viagra and other ED
commercials. Hate that Old Navy one. Too creepy to me. Hate the slurpy woman too, along with Flo. I FF through so many, that I am not that familiar with
them.

I hate anything with a jingle.
There is also one that the music is so loud,I can never figure out what the com.is about. I think the kid that does the credit com.is just the cutest thing. I love his smile. I love,love the dog that says " I'm n the lap of luxury" I don't know what he is advertising,but he is soooo cute. |

The Free Credit ones don't bother me, the others are annoying, but, the one not on there that really drives me insane is the Subway commercial with Jerad
(the skinny guy who used to be fat) and he is with 2 football players and they sing this voice over dubbed opera style song!!!! HATE IT!!!!!

I too think that the Freecredit.com kid is pretty cute, and I don't mind their ads. Most of the songs are actually pretty clever and funny, and I hope that
(even if their product doesn't sell), it will get people to pay attention to protecting their identities!
I haven't seen the subway commercial Guy describes or the cute dog commercial Frances describes; may be these are shown only in your regions of the country - just a guess, I don't know what I don't know, in the Rumsfledian mode of speech ... |

Cannot stand Free credit.com if that is the scruffy looking group at the reenactment setup as only one of their annoying commercials, Flo with the bumpit in
her hair at Progressive, Jessie with the lap robe at Peachtree Annunity, Optimum Triple Play with the guy dancing and playing and the girl in the space ship (I
try to mute these before the singing starts), the morning show with robin commercial, I think this is Channel 2 NY( the singing voices are terrible on this
commercial.), the shark catching commercial for Discovery channel. Hummmm, let me see, what else?

Actually, commercials don't bother me as much as all that darn screaming and yelling on the morning shows and talk shows. That just drives me up the wall.
It is just so unnecessary and childish. I really use the mute button on those shows.

The credit report kid IS cute; I just hate the "song" that they do. It just grates on my nerves.
The lap of luxury pup is advertising some kind of toilet paper. Not sure what brand. Cottonelle, I think. There IS a commercial out, now, for Time-Warner Cable that cracks me up. A woman asks her husband why some guy is patrolling their property. He tells her it's to protect their HD cable system. I love when he says, "I wouldn't stare at him, baby." He's so funny! There's an auto dealer, in my area, who makes almost everyone crazy. He says something about the savings at his dealership being "huuuuuuu-jah!" Can't stand him and wouldn't buy a car from him. ever.

The commercials I hate, are the ones for those Security alarms. What kind of a robber would deliberately break in to a home where they know the people are
at home on the phone?? Dumb. By the time the call gets to the Security company, they call the police and the police get to your home, the robbers are long
gone. The noise may help, but I doubt it really helps with safety. We were robbed once and the police said it was too much trouble to try to find the robber,
for just household items. Always wondered what they did with my iron though.....

I love the toilet paper dog. I'm a dog person and he is so cute. I also like the puppy on the flea/tick control commercials. The Subway commercial is
annoying. I would think those are both national, but maybe not.
Commercials don't bother me a lot. I'm usually jumping up to do something during them.

I'm usually jumping up to do something during them.Actually, I too do just that - and last night, I sorely wished for some commercial breaks during the Masterpiece Theater just so I could finish some chores! This was really good drama and I had already set the recorder to record it. Unfortunately, I stayed on a bit after 9 to watch what it looked like and got completely hooked and couldn't leave the living room to finish thechores and get to bed! Where are the commercials when you need them!

My computer keeps freezing and I couldn't look at the entire list. But, just this morning I had to mute my TV because that annoying Billy Mays was on. Even
in death, he still annoys me. I also hate the eHarmony commercials, escpecially when the old guy how founded it speaks. He looks like a rabbit with his big
long teeth. Actually, I've never seen a lot of the commercials listed.

Yes, I forgot Bill Mays. I am with you. Even dead, he still annoys. That may be why they picked him to deliver all those commercials. Annoy, but stay
memorable.
Billy Mays commercials are 1000-fold worse than the Progressive commercials, I should say. |

Not to speak ill of the dead, but that guy annoyed the crap out of me. I do not like commercials where people yell at me.

I do not know what product they are selling, but having seen this commercial only once so far, I thought it was pretty cute and well done:

you have to live in ma. to see this one. Paliacua*sp* hes running for a senate seat he owns the Celtics basketball team .he is on at least twenty times a day
maybe even more I will NEVER vote for him I am so sick of him and his voice.Now we find out everything he says is a lie. yuck He wants Kennedy's seat..It
may not be a commercial but, when I see it I click. Whoever invented the remote makes my day every day.
For a commercials The perky insurance girl and the gecko ones turn me off. The credit one how dumb can you be.If you don't pay your bills, lousy credit is what you have..He is kind of cute tho.. After a while all commercials get on your nerves. What I really hate is when you are watcing a move,say on LMN and all thru the two or so hours they show the same commercials over and over. .You want to see the rest of the movie but give me a break.

Oh gosh, the Kit Kat commercial where they crunch about 10 times. I mute the TV when it comes and this morning between 1-2 it was on 3 TIMES. It makes me want
to scream.
