The funniest part of the Panago ad, he goes on and on about how the guy who invented it must be a genius............. and yet Domino's has had it for a couple of years now.

But that guy sure looks like a food expert if you catch my drift. I'm just not sure if I agree with him that it's "a favor" to myself to eat such a load of grease. Oh Well, to each his own.

Didnt look back to see if this was listed....

Tampax commercial....couple in a boat....boat has leak....guy lookin for way to stop it...girl pops out a Smoothe glide Tampax and inserts it into hole. Girl saves day.

Now how many chicks have you guys dated that would do something like that?

Actually Im pretty sick of all the Tampax commercials.

Do you ladies in the audience pay heed to these and buy the product based on the fact they stop a boat from leaking?

Hands down the worst current advertising campaign is the Alexander Keith's guy. That and those stupid Excel gum commercials with the talking chewing gum.

See a thread here?

Who decided Scottish accents were not only funny but that they should be over used? Fat ******* was funny ... and that movie was released around 1999 right? Do people from the Maritimes actually talk like that guy? I don't get it.

I will actually change the channel to avoid Keith's commercials, and I'm actively boycotting (yes, I'm sure they really care) a product due to its ads for the first time.

Do most women take heed of these commercials? I wouldn't think so. I think it's the type of thing where you are loyal to a brand and that's it. A commercial probably isn't going to change anything.
I think most women don't like seeing these commercials just as much as you men don't like seeing them. It's a constant reminder of something we really hate... it's torture essentially.

I really hate that Timmy's commercial with the fat, ugly, big toothed red-head going crazy that her disgusting fruit yogurt is low fat! Here's an idea, why don't you get off your lazy fat ass, exercise and cook yourself a damn good meal instead of buying some stale **** from Timmy's...........Dear God I hope she gets run over by a truck.....actually I wish I get run over by a truck everytime I see that......worst commercial ever....

i dont actually 'get' that commercial - perhaps someone can enlighten me.

and i have to agree that she isnt very attractive, shes bucky, looks like 10lbs of sausage in a 5lb bag, and she needs to wash her greasy hair.

doesnt make me want to blow 2 bucks on something that has a serving size smaller than most single serving yogurt containers...

but, i dont have near as much hate as the familia!

Me neither. I know the comercial is supposed to make us think she is at home, but then we find out she's at work......... but I still don't see the point of that little trick. (or anything in that comercial for that matter.)

I think what's happenning in that awful commercial is:

She's at work.
She thinks the customers are standing there, looking at her, because they think she's eating some unhealthy treat, and that's why she's saying "It's low fat!" But, they're actually staring at her because they want to get into the store.

HA HA HA!

I second the Panago Philly Cheese Steak one. Ugh.

And all of the Ford ads that use hockey to try to sell cars. "We invented the game" etc. No, actually you didn't, American car company. Thanks for coming out. Even the god-like Kiefer Sutherland can't rescue those commericals from the depths they dwell in.

My 6 Year Old daughter told me last night she hated that commercial. On her own, not like me saying I hate that commercial and she says, yea, me too. It was on, she blurts out, I hate this commercial. You know it's bad when kids that young hate it.
