Worst TV adverts of the moment

huh, hadn't seen the lift one before but just looked it up on youtube

forget a dissertation, there's probably a whole book to be written on aldi using class consciousness in ads to bolster their bottom line

hey advertising guys, maybe knock it off with the 70s funk on every other fucking ad?

also why the fuck does cooking = big band swing?

Hey Brooke the artist from the film industry why do you laugh after everything you say even when it's not funny?

You just dont expect to hear raining blood by slayer on an advert

(didn't notice the 'stores nationwide' thing until just now so the whole thing just seemed like an advert for going outside)

(NB dog isn't really talking)

not as bad as the singing toddler

Diet Coke woman: "I bet I can make the most obnoxious ad of the year"

Diet Coke man: "HOLD MY DRINK"

Fake Drinking

do all the alexas in the world respond to all those alexa adverts?

Enough with the fucking poetry. It's spreading now, not just Nationwide, now we have Giff Gaff to contend with.

^^ can't handle the authentic voice of the streets

The single-shot film is beautiful in its simplicity. A young woman stood in front of a parked car in a nondescript setting delivers a thought-provoking monologue exploring the advantages of ‘small’ and challenging the conventional idea that ‘big’ is always better. The camera slowly zooms towards the simply-dressed protagonist as Siouxsie & The Banshees’ 1978 classic ‘Hong Kong Garden’ gradually becomes more audible.

been compulsively reading ad industry sites the last few weeks, they really are a whole higher level

That advert is particularly dire, poetrywise.

... written by some berk at Giff Gaff and read by an actress, some googling tells me. Are fake poets worse than real ones though?

they're all terrible

Hi charity wankers we know it's not nice when people are cruel to animals you can knock it off with the weepy saddo voiceover

I'd not noticed Hong Kong garden

nor me tbh maybe somebody pointed out to them that the lyrics are somewhat "contentious"

Not sure if you can see this as my friend filmed it off the TV but this Farm Foods ad with Hasselhoff holding court at the dinner table with a bunch of 20-something Geordies is something else. I keep watching it hoping to glean some sort of sense and well...

new high fibre yoghurt advert voiced by... SuperHans.

"Tell you what that high fibre yoghurt is really moreish."

poor Mo. i blame Alan Davis taking away the lucrative Quorn voiceover work.

the football themed adverts have already started. will be sick to death of them a month before england go out.

Hey Tampax, we get it, I don't think those shorts need to be that tiny

So glad that the season of multinationals pretending, badly, to be into football is here

Watching footballers, or any sportsperson, having to do even the tiniest bit of acting is always excruciating.

I heard some of the worlds top scientists have arranged, Fantastic Voyage style, a micro sub shrunk to almost molecule size, to get to the centre of Ryan Giggs brain - to work out how the thick cunt even manages to breath!

Wiltshire Farms frozen meals for olds are so depressingly 1950s school dinner they make me want to give up food.

Postcode Lottery: maybe try not employing utter twats.

Peace, keep up the good work, creatives.

I see fewer adverts these days than I ever have, I think. But they horrify me much more.

Yeah I'm probably watching more TV than I have in years and most adverts are like acid on my soul

everything about those Knoppers ads screams "made in Germany" but his lips look like they're speaking English

and that’s why we’re leaving the eu

paging Dktr Oetker

i like his pizzas tho

they don't taste like pizza but they do taste nice.

^ neu advertising slogan for Herr Doktor Oetker.

I've just watched a dog singing so maybe the Knoppers ad was in German originally

lol Tom

Awesome there's a guy who looks a bit like Richard Herring dancing round the house to "Come Up and See Me" because he's got bone-on pills

That dishwasher advert with people singing "This Little Light of Mine" is quite kill worthy

And it's a horrible Top of the Pops album type cover of "Come Up and See Me" too.

I wasn't paying much attention to the music I was too busy being gobsmacked that they were celebrating erections thru the medium of interpretive dance

Are you sure it isn’t Richard herring

Does he have erectile dysfunction y/n?

If he has I'm sure he'd have done a routine about it by now.

P sure he’s done dozens

Hold up imma ask

Entire show it appears.
