A commercial I like - the Asian ladies learning to line dance, and going to Nashville. Very cute.

What’s with the full body deodorant ads emphasizing “remove odour anywhere!”, implying your junk? Are people really letting more than their legs go unwashed. Stink down there, spritz it with fabreeze?

The new McDonald's commercial with McDavid and Matthews is horrific. These are the worst possible guys to be the face of the NHL in terms of advertising.

Anyone that orders a Big Mac-David deserves every bit of diarrhea they get.

It's a good thing I'm not into Big Macs because I would boycott them if I was.

The only thing worse than gambling commercials is hockey commercials. They are all just so terrible, especially when they utilize players themselves.

I'm not sure I've seen a good hockey commercial since "die maple leafs die".

The NHL has had ages, literal AGES to get their marketing #### together and...nothing.

The best NHL commercial wasnt even an NHL commercial it was Canadian ####ing Tire!

"I wish we had a player like Albert!" or whatever the hell that nonsense was.

Like, seriously NHL, what is your marketing budget?

I want to see an NHL commercial depicting a player that slowly deteriorates due to drug addiction, alcoholism and losing their salary gambling and slowly wasting away in a tent on Vancouver's Downtown East Side.

"Drop the Puck!!"

Maybe the Kool-Aid man in there with an "Oh Yeah!! Tents are easier than walls!!"

The McDavid/Matthews ad is just a copy of the old Jordan/Bird ad from 30 years ago.



Except those guys had personality.

The problem is all the NHL's top players are so boring. McDavid has the personality of wet cardboard. Matthews is a little better but he looks like a middle-aged dude working on a used car lot despite only being 27.

There's one for Trivago right now where the "Trivago guy" has jarringly white and large upper teeth. Once you realize it that's all you see.

Yep, that looks so bad. If I were to get implants or veneers I'd alteast want them to be a natural white.

What’s with the lady in the Bell ad who sounds like she gargled with gravel before showing up on set.

Whichever commercial has "Hungry Eyes" in it. That song has been stuck in my head on and off for a month since it started airing!

The scotties commercial with the sneeze trigger is getting really old. Face it, people call them klenexes, nobody will ever say "Hey pass me a scotties, I just sneezed all over the place.
