you know them and you love them no I’m
sorry did we say love
we meant hate them with a burning
passion hi Billy Mays here with Shore
bees the most absorbent material I’ve
ever used welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top 10 Annoying TV commercials for
this list we’re looking at the
television ads that feature characters
jingles and themes that are endlessly
irritating or so infuriating ly catchy
that they make you want to punch your TV
not that we’re advocating violence or
anything hi it’s Vince with ShamWow
you’ll be saying WOW every time you use
this towel basically these commercials
suffer from any or all of the following
bad acting bad voiceover bad graphics
bad special effects bad plots or
storylines etc which may make them
memorable but in a not-so-great way I’ll
be monkey baby okay monkey baby
puppymonkeybaby number 10
sponge monkeys Quiznos there was a
special prize is this genius marketing
or a way to guarantee that people stop
going to Quiznos it’s hard to say but we
do know that it’s tough to listen to and
even harder to look at even for the ads
thankfully quick 30 second run time okay
so judges pony rides over these deformed
creatures may look a bit like rats but
they are actually known as sponge
monkeys which we guess means there’s
some sort of primate babies I don’t
think idea although that’s slightly
better than having your restaurant
associated with rodents their shrill
voices googly eyes and Gollum like grins
are enough to make you quickly change
the channel and look for somewhere else
to eat hey Wiz nose
number nine it’s what’s inside that
counts
stuffy’s it’s what’s inside that comes
we’d like to tell you where to stuff
this there’s nothing like a bit of
repetition to really drive the message
home that you should be buying a stuffy
sure with all the secret pockets and
cute animal designs it’s a relatively
novel concept but the tongue twister
used to sell it and it’s preachy tagline
of it’s what’s inside that counts
just grind on you in a way that a toy ad
should not how much stuff can you stop
in a stuffing to exactly stop enough
stuff let’s just mix it even if your kid
doesn’t want a stuffy he or she will
undoubtedly be repeating this ads
question over and over and over again
until the words stuff completely loses
its meaning surprise your child with a
stuffy so they can discover for
themselves
oh yeah number eight
yup the smoother way to start the day yo
play now with company money
I’m still asleep I really don’t wanna
toast while we appreciate yo plays
effort to make drinkable yogurt
appealing to teenagers the brand
inadvertently ruined a classic song
about apartheid in South Africa while
trying to push their product
the hook from the reggae hit gimme hope
joanna is reworked
– gimme yami mama and then sung by
sleepy teens with warped mouths and
exaggerated Caribbean accents teenagers
struggling with the early morning blues
might relate to the ad especially ones
who sleep on the toilet but for everyone
else it’ll make you feel as sick as
someone who downed too much yup yup so
any money income number seven mister six
six flags and out stepped that old guy
under no circumstances should you get on
a bus with a suspicious dancing grandpa
unless of course he says he’ll take you
for a brilliant day out at Six Flags
don’t waste time asking your parents
just go kiddies we’re kidding if you’re
under 18 get permission first in these
series of Six Flags commercials from
2004 and 2005 the gyrating geriatric was
meant to promote the theme park for some
reason a lot of people seem to love his
moves to the Vengaboys 90’s dance pop
tune but when he kept showing up an ad
after ad the initial novelty quickly
wore off though he did reappear in 2009
his popularity as a mascot has been
thankfully mostly limited to him
becoming a well-known meme with his face
replaced by others from the world wide
web number 6
geo Campari oh go compare.com thanks
what can you do go compare the British
Financial Services comparison website
that first introduced fictional Italian
tenor geo Campari Oh played by Wynn
Evans may have created a monster how
much you reckon it vacant lieutenant but
they also got some seriously good press
out of it go compare dot-coms campaign
was voted as the most annoying ad for
two years running after the viewing
public quickly grew tired of geo Campari
OHS aggressive singing and general
nuisance value go compare compare when
you ensure you must be sure to go
compare oddly enough this isn’t even the
last annoying offer commercial on our
list which we think is a cue to
advertisers to maybe take a pause on the
genre geez no wonder Stephen Hawking
centum into a black hole
number five the superfan Crestor and in
a clinical trial versus lipitor Crestor
got more high-risk patients bad
cholesterol to a goal of under 100 we
all appreciate the miracles of modern
medicine but no one will ever be more
appreciative than this guy he just can’t
get enough of his favorite cholesterol
medication where you could go postal in
these ads he dances around his living
room and celebrates wildly at the
bowling alley like he’s a hardcore
Denver Broncos fan I’m down with Chris
tour but in actuality the colors he’s
sporting are not for the NFL team cuz
you know that’d be crazy
no everything in his house is outfitted
in the orange and blue of crest or even
his poor little pooch the looks on his
wife and sons faces sum up how we feel
perfectly dude what are you doing we
were not surprised to learn that his
family does not appear in all the
commercials number four it’s bacon
beggin strips I smell bacon we’ve always
wanted to get inside the head of man’s
best friend
and this Purina ad for chewy dog treat
allows us at least a glimpse into the
psyche of a dog what’s revealed is that
canines or at the very least golden
retrievers love them as stripper bacon a
lot of dogs will eat pretty much
anything so we can’t say whether these
strips actually taste like bacon without
tasting them of course but one thing we
can say for sure is that this talking
pooch is unforgettably annoying from
that bag what’s it say I can read
breakfast time will never be the same if
you find you can’t stop screaming it’s
bacon you go oh boy oh boy oh boy it’s
Tiger number three one eight seven seven
cars for kids cars for kids KS cars for
kids
are you looking for a new way to torture
yourself how do you feel if so this
jingle for a car donation charity is
exactly what you’re looking for first
appearing on radio before moving to TV
cars for kids jingle catches you when
you’re least expecting it and subjects
you to its quasi pop country theme wait
7 setting cars for kids
donate car today as you can imagine this
commercial leaves us feeling pretty bad
for the kids no not the kids who need
the cars the kids who are forced to sing
this inane tune over and over 8 7 7 cars
for kids
you can’t begrudge a charitable
organization for trying to do good but
did they have to hurt our ears even more
with a hard rock remix later on
the nays are hard
number two vogner Ian’s opera singer jg
Wentworth I have a structured settlement
at Nike cash no like we hinted at
earlier it’s fair to say that the most
annoying genre of commercial is the
opera singer ad but fortunately we don’t
usually have to deal with it that often
and this commercial combines two things
that go together like chocolate and
velcro opera singing and financial
services sure they do a brilliant job of
repeatedly screaming 877 cash now at you
and the Vikings do look professionally
outfitted and yes it’s a rousing number
that garnered considerable attention but
its success and proliferation may have
been what killed it for many people it
7-7 cash now in its heyday it was just
impossible to avoid the Viking singer
and so a song that was once almost
catchy becomes a total drag
before we reveal our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions
so yeah sorry about last night I just
don’t understand why you didn’t call
yeah well I was on you trade you know
diversifying my portfolio taking control
like a wolf right what’s that that’s
volatility in the market see I got a
discount on this ham I’ve got the meat
sweats is good I am Diane paperless
discounts give it a rest ah yes
number one apply directly to the
forehead
head on head on apply directly to the
forehead
head on apply directly to the forehead
no the video is not being looped that’s
actually what they were going for this
topical product designed to relieve
headaches put more well shot ads with
bigger budgets to shame by creating one
of the most memorable commercials ever
but like not in the good way head on
apply directly to the forehead
head on apply directly to the forehead
repetition is a commonly used marketing
method but before head on no one had
been so brazen as to use that technique
as the only aspect of a commercial head
on apply directly to the forehead
head on apply directly to the forehead
the sheer genius of the ad can’t be
understated because it could be argued
that the brand has created a commercial
that causes the very ailment its product
claims to help relieve how very meta
head on apply directly to the forehead
head on available at Walgreens do you

commercials are forever etched into your
subconscious oh wait
