There have been good ones? Not since I was a child was there a commercial that was entertaining, or even memorable.
The real trick is trying to find a commercial in which the actors are not POC.
I saw utubes of that commercial.
LOL’d!
Especially the black dude buyind up the stuff.
As if negro chicks do not have a chip on their shoulder already about not being wanted by men of most colors.
The TurboTax commercial where two losers, one black and one JewFro owner, are sitting next to each other at a table. The black guy gets coffee, and when he hears how awesome TurboTax is he turns to the JewFro, and spits the coffee in his face. Then he does it again. Imagine if the roles were reversed.
The one that always stuck in my craw was the Nissan Leaf commercial with the polar bear hugging the guy because he drove a Nissan Leaf.
One of the best…Coke commercial from Argentina about a decade ago…
“ Critics decried that it was reminiscent of racist soap ads from the last century that showed black people scrubbing their skin to become white”
There was a Chinese commercial like this, not in the last century.
Otherwise it’s made up crap.
I recently saw a Biden ad where a female doctor laments that she had to go to another state to get an abortion. She claims that under Biden she somehow wouldn’t have needed to go. Totally idiotic.
Are any Superbowl ads among the ads on the bad commercials list?
Not woke but I HATE that commercial where the couple is selling their car and the woman keeps screaming “Hold!”...grrr...seems to be on all the time.
the most ribald detergent cleanser ads were when once-tv-detergent-ad-girl Marilyn Chambers began her AHEM! ‘blue movie career’ with same said box of detergent somewhere on each scene set!
Super hot half naked women? Calgon take me away..... Those? I was I think the lasted past 1979... I was 8 in 79 and remember those commercials...lol
remember the “how can you tell if a brown towel is clean?” commercial. in this case the only way to tell is by getting up close and personal which could lead to very unintended consequences. “be safe, steer clear, they don’t wash clothes with cheer” wouldn’t offend anyone...but it WOULD make a great counter-chant against the radical elements of society. Outthink the Outstink! your nose will thank you.
Both radio and TV
Visiting Angels
Focus Factor
The life insurance commercials with the emasculated husbands being hectored and harangued by their wives.
We have life insurance, right? JOHN!
I hate all the pharmaceutical ads on tv these days. “Ask your doctor...” and then they list the possible horrendous side effects which sometimes includes death. And then there is the stupid jingles. Bla, bla bla it’s easy to see, I’m lowering my a1c.
Not just that, I read an article somewhere.
Said commercials are also just more numerous. Ratio of content to commercial time keeps shrinking. Plus today’s free TV has fewer “good” shows and movies. More quality material is kept for “pay to play”.
In short modern TV SUX.
PS
Just last night my once evil sister -in law (think Cruela Devella from 101 Dalmatians) said they are dropping direct TV after something like 20 years. Their monthly bill now up to something like a QUARTER of a grand every month.
One good thing is that they are putting the lie to the FAR-LEFT’s discrimination of African slaves. According to the ads, the descendants of Africans slaves are all now married to white wimmin, have all the top jobs in government services and drive all new top of the line car. Oh yeah. They all have “doctor’s degrees” too. Either that, or they all are stick and ball millionaires.
I miss the Old Milwaukee commercials “......and Old Milwaukee both mean something great to these guys.” There were also the Lowenbrau commercials.
