The Tesco advert where some shopper screams at the woman on the checkout “I’ve got the power”, fucking awful.

Has anyone seen an advert on TV and thought "I'll go and buy one of those'

Most of 'em. Once upon a time the adverts were better entertainment than the programmes. Now they are both execrable.

Much more effective if the final shots had zero baby crying noise, the parents frantically searching for the baby and the woman smiling on the step holding the pan of hot "stew".That tesco advert where the next door neighbour makes a mushroom stew for her neighbours. Who in their right mind has a mushroom stew just yuk

Ridiculous JML adverts, usually with American characters getting hyper excited and enthusing about some new life-changing invention, like an electric toilet brush. Often showing some poor idiot over-exaggerating the struggle to clean without one, like falling into the pan.

The guy from the sun life ad. Some old dear talks to him about life insurance and he pops up with the sun life number on his mobile.
My issue is this. Why does he have his life insurance providers number on his phone? Is it so he can call them and put a claim in when he’s dead?

The vast range advertising cremations and funerals as if it's some happy fun thing to book. While I realise everyone needs them we don't need them ramming down our throats every five minutes.
All those adds for donkey sanctuaries, water in Africa, everything to pull at people's heartstrings. There are so many people become immune to them.
On a lighter note that fucking super noodles one which shouts one word really loudly and drags it out. There is a new one for chewing gum or something that screams loudly too.
The we buy any car one. Annoying as fuck.
My sister records most programmes and fast forwards through the adverts. Another great tip if you're watching TV live is to hit the mute button on the remote control unit the program resumes.
