This. His eyes, his face, his hair, his voice... so creepy. Also most ads on setanta are terrible.

Beds Etc.. It has to be intentionally done bad?

The CGI looks like it's from the early 90's, the movement of me one walking to the store (in a black evening dress ) looks like she has **** herself. Not to mention the horrible voice acting.

the purple tin

IKEA with the couple throwing things at each other.
When the girl is going to throw the alarm clock at the mans head, thats just plain scary.

Yeah, including that one for a gourmet burger restaurant where they rhyme mayo with Mayo!

I've been saying that myself for quite some time. You'd think as a business that wants to get it's name out there, they'd do better than that.

Craig Doyle in the UPC ads. He looks like a Ken doll, or a Legoman. Not a hair out of it's plastic place. At times during the ad, he doesn't look at the camera while talking. Makes him look a bit vacant. Or maybe his eyes are just like that!

I can't remember what the ad is about, perhaps it's chewing gum or deodorant but it's a day with product X where some tool is skating around the place from his office, to nearly getting knocked down on the way home and eventually skating into bed. It's all set in an ice rink and looks like a bad 40's musical. There's annoying music in the background too. I particularly hate the bit where asswipe skates by his desk, shuffles some papers, drinks some coffee or something and skates off with a foler while boss in the background notices whizzy skatey boy and thinks 'yes, there aren't enough asswipes in management around here, I must have a chat with skateyboy'. Either that or the boss was equally annoyed and arranged to have the car on the way home 'take care' of skatey boy. I'm hoping it was the second option!

Seriously, isn't it completely wrong where your level of hatred of an ad makes you not even notice what the ad is for in the first place? Complete waste of money IMHO.

The music is highly annoying.

Why have both tourist boards decided that it is a good thing to have people screaming at us! I suggest they employ Mary Byrne!

I hate those annoying Alliaz ads where the randomers give their random advice at the end: "My advice....get locks for your windows." "My advice....get pet insurance."

My advice - FCUK OFF! :mad:

Such and such has a bee in his bonnet about freedom...in fact if he did have a bee in his bonnet he'd set it free....:mad:

the purple tin

"boys and girls come out to play, together in the park today" that song is like nails scraping on a blackboard.

Fooking shyte. :mad:

There's a.....new advert for....123...and....its.....even....worse than....before

Travy1991

The new Harvey Norman ad is absolutely dire!

It's also played non-stop.

"I'm Harvey Norman. I'm Harvey Norman. I'm Harvey Norman. We're Harvey Norman!"
"We won't be beaten on prices. The best prices! The best proices!"

efb

Harvey Norman- employing 400+ scangers for over over 12 years....

baalthor

The new Volkswagen ad with the the drawing board showing the various models past, present and future.
It starts with the camper van ie the 1960s hippy mobile.

Sorry VW, I thought you had an earlier model that was innovative, low cost, fuel efficient and that sold in huge numbers? How come we don't see it being designed in your ad?

Mikosyko

That smug prick on the O2 ad doing tricks with the special card.

Very punchable :mad:
