I think this deserves a thread ...

The one that most comes to mind for me .... Angela Scanlon's Ask Me Anything ...

Angela Scanlon's Ask Me Anything | Starts Saturday 15th October | RTÉ One & RTÉ Player - YouTube

Everything about this is like awful ... the song gets on your nerves ... and who is that jack dancing on 1 leg 4 seconds into it?? ...

I don't know about the rest of you all ... but this is top spot for me wrt annoying promos ..

It is awful ... the worst promo I have ever seen ... the one leg dancing jack, the stupid song and Angela pulling stupid faces/stupid camera angles is enough to produce the opposite affect to what desired .. this will make one not want to watch .....

Their not promos for tv shows though. Maybe OP should edit thread title to awful promos for tv shows.

Any of the promos for soap 'specials', see most recently the one for Emmerdale's 50th ....

BBC had this monstrosity of a promo on rotation over the summer for their coverage of the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. Headwrecking song with the line "Its A Brum Thing" repeated ad nauseum by a guy with a cod-Jamacian accent and migrane inducing visuals.

The original by The Shangri-Las from the sixties was fairly decent, they also had that huge hit with The Leader of the Pack.
