The worst ad/ads ever are not TV and they are not new, Radio Ovaltine ads. I haaaaaaaaaaaaate them. Just perfect for all the uptight moms and Dr. Laura fans.
Teazing -.^
Agreed. I think it is fair to say that the average radio commercial is far worse than the average TV one. The print ads never seem to leave the desired recall in the viewer/reader.
On a related note - local commercials are quite pathetic too. While I have sen some bad ones, the worst is for Rocky's Autos (in CO). I wish that ad would just disappear from TV.
and they're so poorly acted. I can't stand them either. No soccer mom I ever knew ever spoke in such a fake and phony way.
They are awful. I also hate the Daimler/Chrysler ads. "Vee're ein Cherman car!" It creeps me out every time I hear it.
My favorite radio ads are those "real men of genius" commercials. There's one about boneless buffalo wings. When the singer guy in the background sings, "I hope I'm not eating rear end," I nearly drove off the road laughing.
