Most irritating commercial

Of all the pet peeves I have acquired over the years, the greatest has to be patronizing or downright idiotic commercials. Having been a captive to TV some thirty-five years, the litany of such fare continues to expand. But by far, in all those years, the little Steve bastard Dell commercials have got to be the ones that may have the greatest potential for driving me over the edge. I've been a faithful Dell customer, both corporate and home, for years. But I swear if I have to see much more of that little (add your own degrading name here) neither my company nor my family will ever buy anything from Dell again!!

I would have to go with the "Can you here me now." That got old the first time. Now 800 commercials later....

There's an old discussion of tv ads here. I still hate that Billy Mays guy.
On the flip side, I found the new Imodium ads quite funny.

For those not budened by living in the USA, can we get a link? (aparently adcritic is back up but costs for subscription)

The energizer bunny!!! It was cute at first but got old after 2 or 3 years.

Only 3 years! It seems to me that those bunny were haunting me in my childhood.

I like Steve. How often do you find a tennager that is polite to adults and refers to them as Mr. or Mrs.?

I don't know about you , but i certainly find Steven Seagal promoting noodles and "genki" in Japan to be a little Add your feelings here ;

Noodles & drink seagull style ?

My vote is for "McDonald's Eddie the echo".
