What type of TV commercials are you sick of seeing

The ones I really hate and have a hard time understanding: "Owe over $10,000 to the IRS? Get the relief you deserve now!"

They acually deserve jail time.

lol makes you wish Billy Mays was still around eh? :icon_lol: As annoying as he was I actually respected him a little for his energy and passion.
 
After reading some of the stuff others had brought up, I have a problem with those commercials too. One more thing that just drives me way nuts. At the last thirty minutes of a program or a movie, they go ballistic and start cramming a commercial every couple of minutes to a point you loose all interest in the program or movie. I understand that stations need this to support their business but sometimes I feel they go way overboard....lol....Mike
 
...I've been a supporter of the local PBS station for some time. Quality programs with no commercials,...other than it's annual drives to raise money. Fine. Then I found out that the president/ceo of the local PBS makes in access of $400,000+ salary wise! To me that's way off base. Way off.
When they sent me a solicitation letter recently,....I wrote back on it what I thought of their boss's yearly income,...and kindly told them to take me off their 'givers' list.
 
I hate ALL commercials! I keep the remote close at hand and click mute when one comes on. Cable, of course, is the worst. I gave up listening to talk radio because there are no visual clues when the ad is over.

What I really do hate about commercials on TV is that they are LOUDER than the normal programming.

I find that immensely annoying.
