Commercials I am tired of seeing

Anyone else watching online tired of seeing the Buick Verano commercial with Peter Frampton? I would gladly settle for a Subway 'Any, Any' commercial right now.

This Spandau Ballet commercial is on my last nerve too.  Not even sure what it's for.. a car or something I think.

I hate that the same actors are in every commercial too.  It physically pains me.

I have a weird attraction to the broad on the Gazelle commercial.  She's not even that cute, but something about her...

And I LOVE Emily, who is just starting out and on a budget.  I'm talking a ramen noodle every night budget.  I'll watch that one 24/7 bro.
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

I thought everyone got up to grab another adult beverage during commercials, you mean you all stay on the couch and watch those things?

If nothing else, that's the time to take a peek at another game going on (thank heavens for games on 4 channels now).

I'm getting sick of the "Choose Corolla" commercials.  I can't help but to think that if the "coach" is supposed to be Boeheim, does that make the assistant the child molester, grade fixer or drug dealer?
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

NAPA strikes again with the stupid shot clock commercial.

And the Enterprise "we hire former NCAA athletes" commercial...they also aren't shy about admitting they recruit from the very bottom of the class, not exactly putting NCAA athletes in a flattering light there...

I'm amazed for the multi-hundred million dollar project that is these 4 glorious days of programming has netted only, what, 15 different advertisers?  

Day 2, everyone is completely sick of the same commercials and they have turned into negative influences.

I actually really like the Bobby Knight Discount Double Check commercial.

I'm a Bears fan and I liked the first Aaron Rogers one, too. The first one. The one with Matthews is overkill.

Haha it was a pretty good, creative commercial...for the first day.  Then I saw it about 25x a day and it got a little old.

Nothing was as bad as the year Coach K was in every third commercial. (2006?)The only solace I had was that Duke had an early exit.

I don't mind that one yet (but I soon will).  Honestly I kind of want to try a shamrock shake.. it's been decades.

Also I luv the girl giving her bf the silent treatment. 

Bob Knight discount double check commercial is stupid.  It's 2012.

Woke up to the Buttmaster infomercial the other night.. "I am the Buttmaster"..

Also whatever these Charles Barkley IT ads are.. those blow it big.

I think the Barkley spots are funny, but I was in IT sales in my previous life. They could become overplayed pretty easily.

....when you watch too much NCAA tournament action, you end up watching commercials of Charlie Sheen.    Don't watch commercials of Charlie Sheen.....

Ah, the hell with it.   It is worth it to watch Charlie Sheen commercials as long as the hoops is this good.

Exactly.  McDonalds shakes used to be good.  Then they McCafe'd them up and they don't have that wonderful artificially flavored taste.

I agree on the first.  I am also guessing, after today is over, it may have a short shelf life.

I do like the silent treatment commercial.

And the Charlie Sheen commercials are dumb and obnoxious.

Is it March monotony? Nooo!, it's Greg Anthony monotony!

SON OF A B, I don't mind Anthony, but I want to punch the guy every time this commercial comes on (which is 182 times per hour).

PS - got a shamrock shake yesterday and it was good.  Only got a medium though.  May need to up it to a large today (WITHOUT whipped cream & the cherry - c'mon now).

The whipped cream isn't horrible.  The cherry kills it though.  Ruins the last 3 sips of it.

On the topic of "Come on! It's 2012!"...The 3 Stooges?! Really? Not only does the movie look terrible, but the trailer is on non-stop. Besides, wasn't that movie supposed to star Jim Carey and come out about 10-12 years ago when both Carey and the Farrelly brothers were relevant?

the chevy volt commercial-first of all, the car sucks, 2nd-they had to stop making them as no one is buying them, 3rd-it's gubmint mtrs, 4th-they burn up, 5th-you don't save any money on gas as once you turn the heater or a/c, radio, lights on you probably end up getting 5 miles,6th-you have to spend 3 grand to get the special electrical hook-up in your garage, 7th-if you crash one and they have to cut you out of it, the parameds get electricuted, 8th-by the time you think you have it paid off, you need a new ______thousand dollar battery.  it's a complete lie and waste of money.  sidenote-avg. income of buyer=$175,000.  if that's the case, why do tax payers need to subsidize this car to the tune of $7,000 per??
