The worst commercials in TV history..

Just did a recalc on my car insurance. Progressive is $4,000 less per year for my two vehicles than the next best quote.

I follow the money (or lack of it).
CORRECTION

Seems the "other" insurance company quotes only annual policies although its documentation doesn't say that and every other insurance company seems to use 6 month policy duration. Difference now is $1,600 annually. Still well worth not letting your emotions rule your purchase.

For years Anheuser-Busch held the informal "best commercial" title but their product(s) were awful. Works both ways.
 
Ozempic recently came back, and the jingle sounds even worse.

Burger King won't quit with their ads either, same with "Jardiance: The Musical" or Claritin.
They've now tweaked the Jardiance commercial slightly to begin on a bus instead of on the steps of a brownstone.
 
This morning, they have REALLY annoyed me with Claritin. I can't stand hearing that annoying Christmas song (it's not even December to begin with). Plus, the singer sounds awful.
 
Last night on the most exciting PYL in the show's history, the first commercial that pops after that crazy round was JARDIANCE. Glad I was watching on DVR.
 
Yet, don't you have to deal with commercials on Hulu? Does Jardiance, Liberty Liberty Liberty and GEICO rule the streaming airwaves too?
 
The worst? Any of the prescription drug ads. All of them.

Not just Jardiance I'm talking here. ALL OF THEM.

They ramble for more than 30-40 seconds about the side effects.
 
This 1985 classic (reshot then by WGN because the original 1981 master was wearing out), seen countless times until a redo a couple year ago, is going into the history books. Victory Auto Wreckers is closing mid-November.
