  • TV Adverts! Yuck!

    What's your most hated advert on TV?
    I've just heard (thank goodness wasn't watching it!) the latest advert from Asda for their pre-packaged "meals" with the mother cooking the food and the little girl copying.
    Not only does the music get on my nerves! but I'm sorry Asda - but I think the food looks plastic.
    Have never bought anything like this but would much prefer my own home grown veg from my back garden!
    I know not everyone is as lucky as me, nor has the time (I don't have that much to spare) nor perhaps the cooking skills, but come on!
    What's everyone elses most hated advert on TV?

    Any of the Asda ones... the music gets on my nerves

    The Marks and Spencers food ones, as 1) they make me hungry and 2) I can never find the food in the flippin' shop!

              At least Petit Filous contains some fruit and no artificial anything. Unlike a lot of products aimed at children. I'm just glad manufacturers are now catching on to the whole artificial colour/preservative thing. Never did like blue smarties.

              As for least favourite ad. Difficult we seem to watch more dvds and videos than actual telly but I did notice today in between Star Trek cartoons and more Star Trek cartoons that the christmas ad campaign has started. I find Barbie anything crass and expensive, so "I like fairies" in response to the latest dolls will have to go unheaded. Also find the Motorola ads exceedingly irritating as is the catchphrase.

                          The finance ads drive me nuts. Especially that one with Carol Whassername! I thought she was supposed to have a huge IQ. If she is so bright why does she encourage people to get into huge amounts of debt. Aaaaarrrggghhhh!

                            I agree MB, she went right down in my opinion when she did those ads. I think they should stop all finance ads especially since we are supposed to be the most debt-ridden in Europe.

                              Christmas is coming (in the shops already). What joys will I miss in the commercial breaks?
