I don't know if they are local or national, but the new Sonic Drive-In commercials make me want to deliberately avoid Sonic and actively campaign against them. It's a bunch of inane yokels having idiotic conversations.

Theyve been that way for years but with a couple of dopey middle age guys.
now it’s all different people.

Quatermass

The dopey guys were at least tolerable. These new ones seem unscripted.

I don't watch much network TV with commercials, but I was watching ABC Wednesday night, and I could not believe all the virus-related ads they already rolled out.

And both Pizza Hut and Dominoes REALLY want to get the word out that you can get a pizza delivered without even having to open the door for the delivery driver.

It is ridiculous. All this we’re in this together and keep in contact bullshit. Just stop.

johnnysd

I guess I wouldn't mind a small amount of them if they were sincere, but all come across as completely insincere and fake,

dex14

Exactly!

If only we hadn’t seen how those same corporations had treated their customers before this crisis...

Decker

I posted that a month ago. But Now More Than Ever, I want it to stop.

Red Hood

Here’s probably one of the worst commercials of all time. Stay till the end

whotony

^ I can’t get whatever that is to play.


Anyway I loathe the new commercial for something called Microsoft meat or something.
Looks like it’s their version of Zoom.

Starts with an electronic alarm sound of some sort then a guy who sounds like a robot comes on screen and starts babbling about who knows what then more pop up in their own little box.

It's gotta be either Microsoft Teams or Google Meet, although Microsoft Meat sounds like it would be a terrible commercial.

whotony

Is there a commercials we love thread? I couldn’t find it.

Our old favorite ATT girl is back in the latest Add.

fujishig

Who, Milana Vayntrub?

GoldenJCJ

I’m not knocking any culture’s language but the particular accents they have in this commercial seem so stilted and stuttery that it makes the video conferencing service they’re using look like it’s got poor audio quality, like the video/audio is glitchy. Not the most effective commercial to represent the quality of their service.

whotony

Yes it’s an awful commercial.


And yes to the ATT girl. She is Lilly in the commercial I think.

MS Teams - Thanks for advertising that your stream quality is dog shit
Geiko "Clogging"
Literally any commercial advertising Jardiance (sp?) medication

whotony

Unfortunately that tap dancing commercial Is much too real.

I know several people who deal with that type of nonsense every day including my brother who has been fighting it with the leaders of his condo group.

d2cheer

All of them on Hulu...I am too cheap to upgrade and not have to see them..

Violation, Violation, Violation. Cynthia would be buried in the backyard if i lived in that neighborhood.

whotony

What?

I think it's Geico's new ad. It's constantly playing on Hulu. A woman from the HOA board just goes around being a complete and total asshole to a couple. Cutting down planters, violation, chainsawing their mailbox, violation.

Traxan

The problem is it's realistic. HOAs are a breeding ground for would-be dictators who will eventually run for office that get their rocks off on a total power trip.

spainlinx0

Yes, it's an absolutely hateable commercial.

Noonan

Only redeeming quality is the dude pushing a stroller saying "I see you met Cynthia" with a grin.
