1) Head-On : Apply directly to the forehead! - Watching this commercial completely contradicts its advertisement.

2) Enzyte(Smiling Bob) - Annoying mainly because they usually show 3 of these in a row on channels like USA or TNT, almost always in the morning.

3) Hoveround Power Chair(The one with those depressed old people trying to sing, dear God... it's painful to watch.)
 
HeadOn is awesome because it is made entirely of wax. It's a placebo.

What sucks are the latest commercials where they make fun of how lame the original was.

"I hate your commercial, but your product is a-MAY-zing!"

No, shut up. You've got it all backwards. The commercial is the only redeeming factor.
 
Q-ring commercials. I can't find it, but it's basicly a 1-minute informercial about how the q-ring is cool and how celebrities use it. I'm not even sure what it does.

Heh, a year? 2?

Went through a stage at my old school before Uni where people just randomly sung it down the hallways etc.

Bugger me its annoying haha.
 
The Head-On commercials are funny, though.

The sound of the woman's voice repeating itself makes my giggle.

Also, the "HALP IV FALLN N I CNT GIT UP THX LYF ALRT!" commercials are annyoing.
 
I don't know the name of it, but it's a loan advert of some such in UK (at least) and the guy is holding a big box walking a tight rope and falls off and then he gets back on with a smaller, easier to manage box and walks the rope to the other side and THEN he tries to be cool and rests on the pole with his hand and his hand slips!. Omg, just thinking about it is annoying me.

Or even the loan advert where its like a gameshow and each person is lighting up saying something like "CCJ's" - "Self-Employed". Jesus christ..now that is one bad advert.

I'd say in general, all loan adverts are annoying.
 
I once saw a advert of the goverment of mexico and the tourism department
it showed a guy walking trough the street and hearing people complaining about the bad situation of the city, then he puts his earphones and a voice said "live the city like you want not like they want to, ministry of tourism" is not anoying but is the most ridiculous ads I ever see

Funny and true:
Chemical analysis has shown that the product consists almost entirely of wax. The two listed active ingredients, white bryony (a type of vine) and potassium dichromate, are diluted to .000001 Parts Per Million (from wiki)

The daily show did a parody in the form of a us army recruitment video, its quite funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd6eqC1VCf0&mode=related&search=

also youtube recommended a similarly named product: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L68tBusDrCM&mode=related&search=

"The current advertisement has been well received by the vast majority of our customers. We would also like to take this opportunity to confirm that the lead boy within the advertisement is well and continues to live in his native South Africa."

Damn you for making me spend 1 minute looking that up on Google.
 
I would say, the most annoying TV commercials are:

1) Them cigarette commercials, they constantly bring a guy that is dying from cancer; I start to feel sick that way. :x

2) The viagra commercials, with the retarted "When your wife wants to get busy & you are not getting the urge to ****, call this number to get some medicine to give big daddy his charm back."
 
How about the video game college commericals, where they have the two dudes holding an xbox controller acting like they're creating video games, "hey let's tighten up these sound effects on level 6 and move that wizard over here!"
 
fragancies ads

sometimes they hav some nice litle music
 
any of those stupid commercials where some model type woman puts a $2.00 pre-packaged dinner in the microwave and then proceeds to have a near orgasmic reaction after her first bite ...and why do the people always live in some multi million dollar mansion when the people who usually eat that sort of crap looks like this
 
I would gladly watch any of those when you compare it to "Jitterbug" cellphone commercials.

MAKES ME SO ******* *** ***** ******** MAD

yeah thats true

is pure marketing

for example her if is a "family product" like those powders that disolve in water woila you got a a natural juice, the family looks more fakes that dolls, despite having like 3 kids of like 8 years old each one the mom looks like in his 27

also since the suposed "creative" team that make the publicity is allways whiout creativity they just put a hot woman whit big breast,dont matter ehat the product is about
 
The Cadbury "Wouldn't it be nice commercial" so annoying in it's own right (and mildly humorous) but whats worse is I work at a family owned 50's style restaurant that just happens to play the original version of that song quite often (along with funky town... which isn't even from the 50's!!!)
 
"The future's bright the futer's orange" :upstare:

Now the latest commercial from Orange is one with two animated character that mumble psychotically together until a box that has written "share" falls on them.
They show this stupid commercial at least once every hour! I can't stand it arghh!!!
 
That ****ing awful 'I'm talking to the people at picture' advert. I'd rather stab my eyes out than listen to that piece of shit.
