... who would like to kill the woman in the new Wendy's commercials in the most violent way possible?

I'm not eating at Wendy's until they pull this crap from the air. Of course, I haven't eaten there since August anyways, but meh.

I was just complaining about those commercials yesterday, they suck.
I would rather see the old Canadian tire family eating Wendy's... LOL

They should take a cue from DQ - that Flamethrower burger ad always makes me laugh.

Yeah you aren't the only one! The way she says "Sensational" is like nails on a chalkboard. Just horrific!

She doesn't say "sensational." She says "SINsational" ... whatever TF that means, I don't know.

Yeah, I'd kill her.

I don't understand how commercials like this get on TV....Do they not screen test commercials?

Words are not enough to express how much I LOATHE those commercials.

Whatever marketing mastermind came up with them should be strung up by their ears.

Wow those are terrible.

I love the 'burger equalizer' techno ad on that site though, but I haven't seen it on TV in a while...

As far as fast food commercials go, nothing beats those Jack-in-the-Box commercials. Although, since we don't have any in Canada, they're wasted on us anyway.

Dear lord..... must... kill... broad.

She says sinsational 18 times in the 4 ads.

I've boycotted Panago until they take the construction worker off TV. 5-6 ads and counting..

Speaking of DQ, they have a new one about "every bite is a dream" for the blizzards, and some girl dreams her husband has to give birth...

hahah i was howling.
