I know we've had a few threads on this in the past.
But Wendy's just seems to have a knack for fataing ANNOYING commercials.

That stupid ranch tooth commercial just get's my blood boiling everytime I watch it. That guy who does the voice that yells "Ranch", I swear if I ever meet him I will beat the shinguard out of him.

Ugh!

I have never seen that commercial, and really don't pay attention to many of them, especially if they are bad - but I went to see the island yesterday and in the 4+ minutes of commercials they had there was one really bad one at the start. I forget what it was for, but god was it annoying.

It is bad, I agree. Wendy's could use an advertising overhaul. However, I do like the Wendy's commercial with the hot chick doing the Bachelorette send-up.

I dunno about you guys, but those stupid Chrsyler commercials with that old fart going on about some sort of stupid deal annoyed the hell out of me. It was a series with him, and one even had George Costanza in it. I have no idea who that guy was, and why he kept on and on about some deal, but it sure p*ssed me off. Thank god those don't seem to be on anymore.

edit. apparently the old fart is Lee Iacocca himself. I always envisioned him to be more of a hard-ass.

I can’t stand the deodorant commercial where the girl asks the guy where he went and he says running. She then says it’s not wet and doesn’t smell bad. And the worst part of the commercial is the voices are dubbed.

I would have to second that one. Kills me.

And I know I am going to be alone on this one, but pretty much any beer commercial bothers me to no end.....

Is it actually possible to be considered a hardass at age 81?

That's a Gillette commerical (I think thats what its for). For some reason Gillette commercials are usuall just Gillette European commericals which they dub. There's been a few in the past...

I was lip reading and they seem to just have the ausio delayed a bit so it seems as though it is a European commercial, as it appears they are actually speaking english.

Those commercials are just hopeless, I agree.

Of course it doesn't help I can't stand Seinfeld.

Anyone seen that Old Navy commercial where the pants are served up on plates in a restaurant?! That one annoys me quite a bit. I think some of these ad agencies should be shut down... some of the crap they come up with is unreal!
