Now that it’s “choose your medical provider” time of the year, one medical group in our area runs the exact same commercial twice per commercial break. Aaaaaaagggggghhhhh!
I really hate watching Reggie Bush humiliate himself shilling for the Wendy’s Dollar. The ad where he punches the kid in the shoulder, I swear it sounds like the kid says, “Thanks, Bitch!”
There’s one of those Medicare commercials in particular that is ridiculously LOUD. I understand that the demographic they’re aiming for may not have the best hearing, but that strikes me as a bit insulting.
Our local furniture huckster is now endorsing Republicans, and he’s still SCREAMING like he does in all his regular commercials. “SAVES YOU MONEY!” Go away Mattress Mack. I mute him constantly.
What’s kind of weird about this is six months ago they had an ad campaign featuring Reggie Miller, and I’m pretty sure there was an ad where the same goofy looking guy said “Thanks, Reg.”
Re: The Wendy’s Reggie Bush commercials - They’re obnoxious, but I must admit to having a little crush on the girl who plays the Wendy’s employee with the sarcastic edge.
The customers who spent 3K or more on furniture from his store and are due to get double their money back (due to the Astros’ win) probably are tolerating his ads without griping.
There is a commercial running for Maker’s Mark whiskey. The music is the opening to Lou Reed’s “Walk on the wild side”. Have the distinguished gentlemen of the Maker’s Mark board of directors listened to the song?
Hey, remember Burger King’s classic “Hold the pickle, hold the lettuce, special orders don’t upset us” jingle? It’s back!
Well, not really. They’ve recycled the melody, but the words are now simply “Whopper Whopper Whopper Whopper.” Ugh. And the guy singing it couldn’t carry a tune if he had a bucket. Why??
