Great List Triple J - you did however leave off the Christmas commercials with faux Christmas songs like “Holiday Road” and “Falalalala” pretty much any commercial that took a Christmas song and twisted the lyrics to make it their own,

Let's not forget the Wayfair dumbass 'drop the mic' fiasco. I hate these f*ckers almost as much as I hate Geico!  Who is going to drop their device? These things are expensive and the marketing people at Wayfair are idiots!



And the fvcking gamechanger guy... I want to smack him upside his head!  Angry



The only saving grace here...I don't see the limp elbow monkey girl! Angry

This is the one guy I've wanted to hit with a heavy piece of mining equipment. The optics of this ad are so stupid when you break it down. This ass clown was eavesdropping on two women, chased them up six floors to meet their elevator, and then breathlessly push a CashNetUsa loan on them. Are we a little desperate to rip people off? Mafia loan sharks don't get the outrageous interest rates that companies like this soak you for. The creep's name is Tim Heurlin and I pray he dies a slow and painful death,

Triple J's list Thumbs Up  Thumbs Up  Thumbs Up

I still hate Trivago Guy the most.  Potschbag and Muddleditch are close seconds.

The Cheerios rap crap theme song "Good Goes Round" is especially heinous because it takes a basic American iconic brand and turns it into ghetto.

If we added the hellish XMAScommercials; they would eclipse the bad stuff from the rest of the year. I have a stand alone thread dedicated to this year's worst holiday commercials. My worst was Vacation/Holiday Road.
I approve this message.

1.  Chevy AngryAngryAngry
2.  All holiday car commercials. 
 
3.  The IKEA commercial with that screaming twit shouting for her husband to "START THE CAR!"
 
4.  Proactiv.  Sweetie, a few trips to the dermatologist is the only way you're going to get rid of that cystic acne.
 
5.  Mesothelioma
 
6.  Baby diapers.  NOT CUTE AT ALL!
Chevy commercials that feature annoying hipsters make me NOT want to ever buy a Chevy......

I cannot believe no one has mentioned:

1) Panera -- fake baby voice telling you what to eat. Babies give the best advice. I wonder what car they think I should buy.
2) Osteo-biflex -- obnoxious woman who can't play tennis telling you how she's now going to destroy her daughter on court because she has taken Osteo-biflex.
3) ? trash bags -- who leaves kitchen trash in an open container in the middle of the kitchen? who is stupid enough to believe that a trash liner is going to mask the odor of open trash? what women (or men) do you know who voluntarily invite neighbors over who are "nosy" as if neither the invitee nor the inviter had anything better to do than to dress up and gossip about trash?
4) the Go Daddy bowling commercial

And all ads that send the message that dishwasher loading, laundry, cleaning, etc., are to be done only by women.

I have one-Draft Kings' Dr. Aftkings.  The guy playing the doctor is probably one of the worst commercial actors I've ever seen.  Especially all that laughing at the end.  Keep drafting...huh-huh-huh-huh..gout..huh-huh-huh-huh.....

This one is probably off the radar, but it does feature a really bad actor..the one for the anti-smoke cure where the dude snickers at 'his' new baby daughter as he says that her birth is the 'one ' reason where he decides to drop cancer sticks...at first, its endearing, but after the 1000th time, his poor acting and obvious scripted responses just GRIND on me. Now that its January, this mock 'parental' concern is played ENDLESSLY -along with 'taco party' and 50 lbs less of Mo-rie Os-mormon.
...YUMMY Broccolini!!....

I forgot to give honorable mention for stupid and bad for 2017: The "Values Pass It Around" drivel. Some bible thumping billionaire is throwing around his money on such BS. If you want to help so much why not contribute some of your $$$ to real causes such as childhood hunger, animal rights etc.? Instead it's a rainbow cast including sweaty hot teen girl athletes and plenty of retarded folk to bad music.

Courtney from Match .... she does that head bob twitch .. sometimes I can’t find my remote and have to listen to the entire commercial ... worse than that, sometimes I can’t find the remote to turn off those ASPCA commercials.

So much useless and annoying noise these days and not just in commercials.  If if wouldn't mean that I'd have to listen to nothing but the whistling in my ears 24/7, I'd try and find a way to shut off my hearing so that I wouldn't have to listen to life anymore.

And now that I've heard that awful Cheerios Good Goes Round commercial, I need to add it to my list of worse for 2017.  Talk about an audible pile of sh*t.

ANY and EVERY commercial that included the irresponsible act of purposely dropping an expensive electronic device known as a microphone.
 
 
'Courtney' really is taking the cake for 2017 - Match thinks their little pixie needs to be found by all, or they've REALLY lost her and now the "...come find me..." is a plea from criminal investigators currently searching for her remains in trunks and refrigerators in Taiwanese junkyards. Maybe someone 'geo tagged' her skull...  
 
 
Cheerios 'Good Goes Around and Around' while showing a Cheerio NOW only reminds me that the good that went around was something enjoyed by the lassie, made of chromed silver and was kinda heavy and MUCH larger than a Cheerio, but she didn't eat IT at 'feeding time'...

Sometimes I actually consider getting rid of my TVs. I can’t listen to most of the ads ...

DVR!  The only times I hear commercials are the rare moments when I'm watching something live, and here.
