Especially when it's for light beer. Sorry, there's no way to save face if you call yourself Canadian, and you're drinking light beer.

The commercial for Witney Cumming's new talk show

Why on earth do they keep giving her tv shows?

Whoever at Pepsi OK'd these commercials should be fired.

My wife saw it once when it first came out months ago and loved it. She then saw it for the second time during the home opener against the Sharks. She said "Oh, this is that great commercial!", and proceeded to get teary-eyed during the last scene of the player sitting down crying/laughing at the experience. When the commercial came on again for the 100th time at the end of the second period, she was saying "I hate this commercial. Blah blah, cheerleaders, blah blah, goal, blah blah crying guy...enough already!".

Was there more variety in commercials when I was younger, or has my tolerance for them (and their repetition) gone way down because of the PVR? It's the one thing that really sucks about live sports.

The new TD commercial with the wrapped chair.

The stupid part is the chair was always supposed to be a symbol. So they wrapped up a symbol?

Which makes it even weirder when they say, 'hmmm, I wonder what it could be' sarcastically. Sure it would be sarcastic if it was a chair wrapped like a chair. But then it's not a symbol anymore. If it really is still a symbol, then it could be anything. And there would be no need for that sarcastic comment.

Plus who brings a huge chair into a restaurant to give it to someone as a gift?

They pretty much just crapped on their own brand idea.

The one for "laundry scent boosters". Never mind that most laundry soap is stinky enough as it - it's "Jimmy", the panty-sniffing intern who's been in the closet for "12 weeks" that bugs me.

I thought the first one was terrible and scripted, but the newer one with the chick in the blue coat is just the most awkward exchange of conversation.
The MTV Cribs style enthusiasm is worse than the Oilers new anthem singer.

I just can't get over what a terrible name that is, every time I hear it all I hear is "Phlegm Man". I don't care if you started the company, if your last name sucks, don't name it after yourself.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when Morgan Water & Poland Springs joined together to create Moland Springs.

The current North Star Ford commercial playing on the radio. What the hell is that? The dude poorly sings some god awful jingle that feels like it goes on for 2 minutes. I can't change the station fast enough now.

Any commercial that plugs some employee in a superhero costume should not be allowed on the air.

I like how in the second iteration of that commercial they had to put fake muscles in his costume. The first time around, he just looked like some regular schlub struggling to hit 5km/hr on the treadmill. I'm sure he was a reasonably fit dude, but superhero costumes demand a little higher standard. Looked budget.

The "Plan-it Builders" radio commercial. The one where the daughter is torturing a violin. If I were the radio station playing the commercial I'd be pissed at Plan-it because everytime I here it I change stations.
