I don't know if these ads are just on Tubi, but the e.l.f Cosmetics ads with Jennifer Coolidge (who I already loathe & now want to fire into the sun) and the "Canadian Canola" ad need to be curbstomped into oblivion.
Penélope Cruz and her Oscar winning Emirates commercials are shooting up the list.
Outrageous trolling by the Saudi's, doing it just because they can.
Wedged between commercials for blue collar families discussing laundry detergent and discounted kids meals at Boston Pizza, you have a Hollywood actress pushing $15k airline seats for 3h flights between Dubai and Istanbul.

I'm trying to remember back to the 80s but has the standard commerical "comedy" setup always been some doofus doing something really weird and bystanders giving them funny looks?
Such a tired premise, every 2nd commercial is the same damn thing. Like Bill Hicks said, if you're in advertising you just should kill yourself.

The VW ad where the guy replicates an old photo of his dad wearing some weird outfit and a mullet while some royalty-free classical music plays in the background. It's not a terrible ad I guess but I must've seen this one at least 150 times, it's everywhere! Also makes sure to tick off all the advertising diversity boxes all these companies appear to share these days.

Lol! I drive a VW and my dad had an old 1984 Jetta, it was my sister and I's first car and thing was a gigantic POS. I do not have fond memories of that car.
It was a 4-door sedan. One of those doors even opened. It was not the driver's door.
Windows? I think one of them worked?
If I were to do a 'photo re-enactment' it would probably involve a Jerry Can of fuel, some matches and a really steep hill.

I think that is a big part of advertising. There are some ok to passable commercials out there but they get played every commercial break and I grow to hate it. I have actually gone from Oh OK that's a good commercial to I will never support your company again just because of the insane level of repetition.
The same can be said about music. I don't listen to the radio a lot but if every time I turn it on and it is the same three songs, I will start to hate them much faster.

Oh my god. I cannot believe that garbage was greenlit as an ad campaign. It's so ridiculous. Complete trash, I don't even understand what the hell is going on. "Make sure everyone can buy this stupid thing the woman who has quit designed on the way out the door" "No problem, uh.. it's $200". I guess we're supposed to view these clowns as just a great group of friends who happen to work together.

Oh yeah you've got to keep up with the Spence Diamonds lore for at least a decade to really know what's happening in these ads anymore. Someone should start a Wiki.

Like am I supposed to know where she went on vacation? What did she “discover”? Why would I even care about these fake scenarios?!?
