How about that hyper annoying hipster Christmas "Holiday" jingle that has somehow turned up on TWO different ad campaigns? God how I despise that song!

The bland, cookie-cutter guy who does the State Farm commercials is the worst thing on TV right now. I guess they were going for hip/cool, but they failed miserably.
Is that the guy who looks like he could be the love child of Tom Cruise and John Barrowman?

The first time I saw the Slap Chop/Sham Wow guy I thought, "He looks like someone who would beat his girlfriend".
Sure enough, he was busted not that long ago for slapping up a hooker. And they still run his ads!!!

For me it's that Englishman who's hawking all that crap for 'his friend Billy'. (Who will always wear the crown as king of irritating salesmen. I'd rather have a tooth pulled than listen to his voice.!)

I love Flo! She makes me smile.
I'm thankful the holidays are over and I may never again see the animated chocolate people singing Melt With You to the tune of Carol of the Bells. That is the stuff of nightmares.

Ha! That's by Vampire Weekend. If you go beyond those first few verses, it is by no means a song about Christmas or any 'fun' holiday for that matter.

The Beggin' Strips dog IS bad. Almost all talking dogs are, now that I think of it.

LOL, Dottie and Calvin! I freaking HATE that damn Hyundai ad with that annoying chick and her scarves!!
And SOMMS, thank god I have not seen those pajama jeans in person. People who will end up buying pajama jeans will no doubt not be built to actually wear pajama jeans. Not that anyone should be wearing them...

I don't mind Flo, but I agree with whoever (Calvin?) said that stupid Hyundai commercial - God I'm sick of that. There is a Honda holiday commercial too that's driving me nuts.
KFTC!!!!!

I'm trying to think of one that wasn't annoying, and I'm coming up empty.

Those flippity flapping ASPCA commercials are running ALL of the time here.
So while one was playing in the background, I made my own video...

I googled, "stupid honda holiday commercial" and found some people who hate that and the Hyundai commercials just as much as I did!

Oh, Dottie, I'm with you.

I forget which group does the one about polar bears and global warming, but I hate that one too. There was someone famous who did that ad campaign too, I believe.

As much as I love Megan Mullally, her commercials for that margarine are cringe-worthy.

OK, one talking (or singing, more accurately) dog that didn't annoy me: the one for some sort of flea repellent that would sing "there ain't no bugs on me." It was kinda cute. And the Bush's Beans dog wasn't too bad until overexposure set in.

Dear God, I cannot STAND that crazed Coupon Suzy girl! She reminds me of all the girls in high school who thought the best way to get me to go out with them was to follow me everywhere, laugh at everything I say, and "accidentally" brush their boobs on my arm.
Coupon Suzy DOT COM!!!

I like Flo, even if all of the spots arent that funny, I think she's great and expected her to make a transition to at least a co-starring role on a sitcom, like Jenna Elfman or Kyle Bornheimer who is on his third.
The one I hate most is that Geiko guy who's a cross between Rod Serling and Robert Stack. I want to kick him in the nuts.

Mister Matt - LOL. I saw the Coupon Suzy commercial for the first time just the other day. The first thing that came to mind when I heard her speak was - SKANK!

I really, really hate the Heidi Klum Light & Fit yogurt commercials. It's just so gross to watch her slurping/sucking the yogurt out of the cup and sticking her fingers in the cup and eating yogurt with her hands. Yuck!
I just don't get the Julia Stiles Stoli commercial, although I usually like Julia and I still kind of like Stoli, even after all these years.
I'm also bothered by that lying Glade air freshener/candle woman, but I guess people must connect with her in some way, because she's been featured in their ads for a long time now.
And yet I totally dig Flo.

Dottie - If she were just a skank, I think I could handle it. But she seems completely deranged.
