Title: Christmas commercials?
Post by: sgluckadoo on December 14, 2014, 04:31:03 pm
So there are a few Christmas commercials that are getting on my nerves... I can't stand the Kmart joe boxer commercials - dancing guys playing their stomachs or the one with dancing pregnant women (not bc they are pregnant). I just hate the commercials and they are being played 1000 times a day!

Any driving you nuts?

Most of the Christmas commercials I've been seeing is Wal-Mart, Macy's, and JCPenny's recently.  They have a everything on holiday special deals.

I dislike most of the Christmas commercials, mostly because I think this season is TOO commercialized.

I like the walgreens commercial where the man & woman are eating cookies and they look out their window & see santa on the roof of a house & the woman hurry's up to get to Walgreen to get some more Christmas cookies...LOL  :)

I hardly watch tv nowadays (social media has taken over) so I haven't ran into any Christmas commercial yet.

All I can say is that's the beauty of a DVR.  :)

Can't say I've seen this year's Joe Boxer or the other commercials.  The only one that's stuck in my mind are the Old Navy ones.  There's the Turpigen one (chicken inside a pig inside a turkey), and now a new one with a pony as a present.

The pregnant commercial is the one that is playing the most over here. It just ended actually. I find it kind of funny and cute. It doesn't annoy me...well, not yet.

I agree - the KMart commercials lack taste!  I am also tired of the cars with bows on them!  Getting a car for Christmas is way too far off my radar.

Most Christmas commercials annoy simply because they are run ad nauseam this time of year.  Trouble is, once Christmas is over it's all about diets and cold medicine and taxes, to which I say:  BLEAH!

Yes, both of those are being played way too much. Those are the main ones, but there are some Christmas commercials that I don't mind.

I like some of the Christmas commercials, but the Kmart ones are over the top, now they have one with pregnant women dancing.

Most commercials run ad nauseum because the advertisers know that repetition is the key to success.  While the commercials may make us annoyed they do their job because we remember them.  Ultimately, as long as the advertisers (Walmart, etc.) continue to make a kazillion dollars they will attribute some of that success to their advertising which they will continue to run.

I haven't run across too many commercials that really annoyed me (if I can remember), but I do miss more the Target commercials of the recent past that were more clever and fanciful. The exploding snowmen heads is kind of distracting.

I do not like the Kmart ad with the pregnant women dancing for the Joe Boxer commercial.  I think it is very tacky.

I have had time to watch very much tv but it seems everytime I do there is a commercial about a notebook which really annoys me.

I haven't really paid the commercials any mind, but when I see it play over and over it gets annoying real quick.

I hate commercials so every time there is one, I get up and do something so I don't watch them.
