Yogurt Burst Cheerios

Saturday, October 29th, 2005

Ok, this one takes the cake for by far one of the worst, most uncreative commercials I’ve seen.

It features what appears to be normal everyday people trying to sign a song and dance. It is pathetic … I guess that’s supposed to be funny … maybe to the Cheerios marketing people.

Rating: 0 remotes out of 5.

Dr. Scholls - you gellin? No, you slacken?

Na, actually this one isn’t all that dumb (I’ve seen MUCH worse), but I do think it belongs in the 90’s era.

I’ll give it 2.5 remotes out of 5.

Charmin Toilet Paper

Is it just me, or does anyone else think those Charmin cartoon bear commercials sickening?

I mean come on … a couple of bears always takin a dump behind trees next to a river with a roll of TP hanging from a limb. Time to change your ad agency Charmin.

Dumb!

Subaru cars crossing street while deer waits

Friday, October 28th, 2005

Subaru cars crossing street while deer waits.

Starts with cars driving through the wilderness, then they come to a road which they proceed to cross … a deer is standing in the middle of the road waiting patiently for the several cars to pass by. The cars continue into the wilderness and the deer looks around as if it’s ready to move ahead.

Catering to the Subaru All Wheel Drive vehicles … this is a very creative commercial.

I’ll give it 5 remotes out of 5.

BAM! Crest & Emeril

BAM! Crest & Emeril Lagassi

Starts with Emeral brushing his teeth in the morning, then running to a cab which takes him to a lake, he jumps into a small boat and runs through the woods to stop and scream BAM!

He should have screamed … DUMB!!!

eHarmony’s founder … don knotts?

Tuesday, October 25th, 2005

Is eHarmony’s founder really Don Knotts? You decide:

Can you guess which one is the founder of eharmony and which on is Don Knotts?

OR

(ok pretend the label isn’t on the second photo … it’s the best one I could find)

They must be brothers.

My first post!

Tuesday, October 25th, 2005

My first post in the new TV Commercial Blog … this site will feature (starting now) news, reviews, funnies … and more … on Television Commercials.

The blog is run by me, Sean.

Why a blog on TV Commercials? Because they are funny, dumb, interesting and some are actually useful, so I thought I’d share my reactions about what I see on TV with you.

So enjoy!
