along the lines of overplayed during playoffs, is Moxies commercials. I hate that one with the guy sitting at the bar perving on the 2 cute girls out for a meal and the one eventually invites him to join them after he's been leering at them for 2 hours. No girls invited me to join them when I did that. That's probably why it bugs me so much.

I hate the background music in those commercials. And in the newest ones, it suddenly now sounds like it's being played under water.

LOL...I was waiting for these to show up in this thread. They're awful, and that guy is not an actor...he was an extra...I know this because...



That's my ugly mug.

Also, that girl is way out of his league.

I don't remember any of the food items being served in the commercial despite several hundred viewings of it, just the cheesy electropop dream song and the idea you can hook up by staring at other tables during your meal. Are they advertising Moxies as having Chicken on the Way type services, except higher end?

what is the story with this? You were just hanging around the bar at Moxies one day, picking up hotties, and all of a sudden a camera crew showed up and started filming?

Nope. A few ######bags were hired (except me of course) to pretend like Moxies is the most awesomest place in the world.

Believe it or not, those commercials took 2x14 hour days to shoot.

It was the catalyst to my retirement in acting.

Inefficient and a director who had no real plan.

Now that I've been directing for a few years, I realize there are some really bad directors out there.

Apparently the new thing is spending thousands of dollars on your mom because she made the same choice billions of other people around the world made...

But it's the only way she will know that you love her and appreciate her.

The Sportsnet Hockey Central playoff commercials...in particular Kypreos saying that the regular season is like a Broadway play, because it's a dress rehearsal...no, the dress rehearsal for a Broadway play is like a dress rehearsal.

The commercial telling people to go on facebook and tell everyone what they would call the act of wiping your ass with both a wet-wipe and toilet paper. Horribly written commercial, horribly acted (I hate all three characters in the commercial), and pathetic attempt at social media marketing.

Maybe it's just me. I kind of wish the chute didn't open for that photography student so I didn't have to see that HTC ad.

These Febreze commercials on the radio where it is a dog whining or a fast food deep fryer and someone talking through a drive thru. Do you really think I like having those sounds coming through my radio? Just brutal and the annoying sounds are the loudest parts.

The Quiznos ad where the guy is 'dreaming' of a sub and is outside the shop in pjs and with a pillow...makes me not want to go there.
