South Park mocks alcohol commercials

Do you find it silly when a commercial for beer or some form of alcohol comes on and it shows a wild night and unbelievable situations only to end with a “Please Drink Responsibly” disclaimer? It’s as if you’re supposed to ignore the crazy, loud scene you just watched and tone it down a notch. […]

DrPepper

Commercials with Larry Culpepper, the Dr. Pepper Guy, are painful to watch

Dr. Pepper has a new face for their franchise and it’s an awkward, annoying guy named Larry Culpepper. Larry, the Dr. Pepper Guy, may resemble that uncle you always dread seeing on family holidays and now he’s pitching Dr. Pepper in a loud and annoying way. He claims to be the inventor of the playoff […]

Progressive introduces Flo’s family and they’re all played by Flo

If you’re not a fan of Progressive’s character Flo, you’re going to hate this new commercial which introduces us to the spokeswoman’s family. That’s because every single member of Flo’s family is played by the same actress who plays Flo. Think of this as some sort of bizarre Thanksgiving at the Klumps, except one family […]

BigLots

Big Lots puts a nail in our Holiday spirit

Big Lots is trying to show all of us that they’re the best location for Holiday decorations, gifts and products. They decided the best way to illustrate this point is a song in which singers talk about how they’re #NailingThis.

Here’s a video highlighting all of the phony ads in movies

Do you enjoy the phony ads for fake products you see in movies? If so, the folks over at Screen Junkies have a treat for you. They’ve compiled a collection of some of the best and most memorable ads we’ve seen across the years in some classic films. From Goodfellas and Anchorman to Tommy Boy […]

Walmart deploys Holiday ads with Melissa Joan Hart and Anthony Anderson

It’s that time of the year. Stores have already rolled out their Holiday products and now it’s time for Holiday ads to litter the airwaves. Walmart is the latest major brand to push out their ads for the Holiday season and if these are any indication, we’re in for a long couple months. It looks […]

AdvancedWarfare

Call of Duty Advanced Warfare’s intense live action ad

We’ve come to expect a lot from Call of Duty when it comes to advertisements. Back in 2012, we were treated to a live action ad with Robert Downey Jr. and a series of other movie and Internet celebrities for Black Ops 2. It was awesome. The following year saw a fairly underwhelming ad campaign […]

HandPuppet

Progressive’s hand puppet is a new form of crazy

If we were to tell you that Progressive rolled out an ad without Flo, most of our readers would be pretty pleased. Well, the company did just that, but unfortunately their latest creation is just the latest insult to the world of marketing and advertising. While there’s no Flo, there is the Flo hand puppet […]

IKEA

IKEA recreates tricycle scene from The Shining

IKEA Singapore has raised the bar for Halloween advertisements. Instead of following the path of nearly every other company out there and producing a lame, low-effort piece of Halloween garbage, IKEA Singapore made a brilliant parody of the infamous tricycle scene from The Shining.

Smashburger

This Smashburger ad is full of cringe

If you live in an area with a Smashburger, you may have seen this cringe-worthy ad. Smashburger, a burger chain which actually makes a really delicious burger, has been using an ad which is difficult to sit through and deserves to be mocked.

VirginAmerica

Virgin America’s six-hour ad is intentionally boring

Would you watch an ad which is nearly six hours long? Virgin America is betting that you won’t even though they just rolled out an ad which clocks in at five hours and 46 minutes. The ad, if it can really be called that, highlights flying at its worst. Told with mannequins (extremely creepy ones […]

BadNameAd1

Unfortunate ad for a company with an unfortunate name

You have to feel bad for the companies out there who have the name, or go by the abbreviation of ISIS. Not too long ago, those four letters didn’t stand for much in North America, but now they represent a terror organization that has become a household name. We’ve already seen smaller companies change their […]

SkittlesSpider

Grab some Skittles and have a bromance with a giant spider

Skittles commercials are pretty freaking weird and that’s an understatement. With that in mind, Skittles may have stepped their game up for their Halloween offering. A bromance with a giant spider quickly turns into something a bit more sinister.

Q50

Feel free to drive distracted with the Infiniti Q50

New technology has allowed various car companies to roll out a wave of safety features designed to make sure you arrive at your destination safely. The idea is that the new features (blind spot detector, etc.) will work along with your normal driving skills, not replace them. Apparently someone forgot to tell Infiniti’s marketing department […]
