What’s funny about this to me is: I never see these betting app commercials unless I’m watching a hockey game on a national broadcast. The regional Stars games that I watch on Bally Sports don’t have them.
I’m sure Bally owning a string of casinos has nothing to do with that.
This betting app commercial just started airing this month. At least it depicts a rational bettor. “Just remember to look sad when they lose.”
What, a betting commercial that mentions losing? I’ve never used a betting app, but from the commercials I’ve seen, I thought everybody who used them was guaranteed to win every single time!
I see this particular commercial a lot. I think the premise is okay, where the women have spotted subtle weaknesses in aspects of the home team’s play that will give them an edge in placing bets. The annoying part is that apparently the home team’s entire defense is a dumpster fire, which undermines the set up.
Perhaps I am demanding too much of my sports gambling app television commercial story arcs.
It’s not about the bettor losing - it’s a class reunion or something and a woman is betting against the home team. Another woman comes up , they talk about how bad the home team is and second woman says “remember to look sad if they lose” - meaning that the woman who bet against them won.
Yes, but I’m surprised they even mention the word ‘lose’ in a betting app commercial at all. Similar to how they never show an in-flight movie that depicts any planes crashing or being hijacked.
TIL about the existence of Shriners commercials in Spanish; happened to notice one on the History Channel before I got around to finding something else to put on.
Maybe it’s because my Spanish is quite rusty but this seems more real than the ones with Alec and/or Kaleb.
Is 7-11 trying to give itself a new nickname?
Over the holiday season, we were subjected to a lot of 7-11 commercials. Not only does it have those last-minute things you forgot to get for your holiday meal, but it also has plenty of snacks and sweets, and meals. And it delivers, via a delivery company. “So when you need us, we’re there. We call it, ‘Easin’ the Season’ … at Sev.”
“Sev”? I can understand that Coca-Cola became “Coke,” and Chevrolet became “Chevy,” but those names likely came from the bottom up, from consumers, who undoubtedly found them easier to say. But “Sev” seems to come from the top down.
The commercials aren’t annoying as much as they are a bit of a shock. Does anybody call the 7-11 chain of stores, “Sev”?
Don’t all Kum & Go customers call it “the Kum”?
I remember an episode of Moonlighting where David is trying to fast-talk Maddie into keeping the detective agency open. It’s something like…
I also remember commercials for Sunny Delight where people were calling it “Sunny D”, and I think McDonald’s has used the nickname “Mickey D’s” in some cases.
What is it about both car commercials and that Lume/Mandu soap ones that set my teeth on edge? The latest Lume has a lady tell me that having kids made her feet and crotch stink and also made her unable to wash more than once a day. Another says you stink a stink you can’t smell. Huh?
And that Chevy commercial that plays Rubberband Man while the guy tells you a Chevy truck is for those of us who cannot afford avocado but we should order some on our toast and then tell the waitress we can’t afford it-- while we have the nerve to tiddle his left toe?
She’s not just any woman, she’s ESPN sports anchor Elle Duncan. I assume she’s playing herself, from context.
Not like I’d know, but I saw her in a promo during an ESPN covered football game.
H&M black and white tv commercial, fancy velvet shirts, etc. on three of the creepiest, glummest, scary, downright repellent looking men I’ve ever seen.
Yes, I know who they are (famous musician and sons), and no, I don’t expect colorful giggly jolly young people in every commercial.
“Pits, underboob, thigh fold, butt crack…” how could anyone find that annoying?
They did provide an excellent band name for the band name thread: Pitts Underboob and the Thighfold Buttcracks.
That damn Burger King campaign is still on. Please make it stop!
No amount of deodorant applied to one’s buttcrack is going to make it smell any better. Especially once nature takes its course. The ‘swimsuit’ area is noisome.

heh you should hear the manscape podcast creator read commercials …
If I see AG1 commercial one more time. It’s pea soup time.
That green powder is so unappealing looking. The green goo in the glass looks worse.
And, come on AG1?
Remind you of “agey one” enough?
