Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Everything!
I am an all time hater of adverts, they get right up my nose. I know that without them we would have to pay a hell of a lot more for our TV licence, and that there would be alot less channels, but they really annoy me!
For starters, its the whole breaking programmes into two parts just to throw 3 minutes of adverts in the middle, I wouldn't mind the adverts if they were before and after programmes (for example 5 full minutes before and 5 full minutes after or even 7 minutes), but when you get your programmes broken up into two halves, I tend to forget what is happening in the show!!! And the adverts aren't long enough to do anything worth while in, the average kettle will take a good few minutes to boil when making 2 - 3 cups, so you don't quite have time to make a brew. If your toilet isn't next to you, you don't even have time to nip to the loo. And so you end up just sitting there for 3 minutes watching stupid adverts for things which your never going to go out and buy, and infact many adverst PUT YOU OFF buying the product!
Ok, here goes the worst adverts, in no particular order:
- The Halifax Adverts, mainly the one with the REALLY annoying woman going through the streets singing a stupid song, though all of them are annoying! But that one inparticular, you know the one I mean, her name was Natalie, "Get Extraaaaa, Extraaaaaaa, Extraaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" that one!!!! SO annoying!!!! Just a complete waste of space on TV and it put me off going with Halifax for my new bank account!
-The new vodaphone adverts, the ones with dubbed singing over other people, the most recent is for "no roaming fees this summer", and has a girl on holiday and her boyfriend back home working in a garage, and there is an old song been played and the girl and boy are miming the words. Its SO annoying, I think the main reason for this is that the two people in the advert are just complete chavs, and look downright manky and in need of a good wash. But other than that, the 3 adverts of the same kind which I have seen up to now over the last couple of weeks have just infuriated me, its just so naff these people miming these stupid songs. Again, just makes me not want to go with Vodaphone!!!!!!!
- Cadbury- the one with the two kids doing the weird thing with their eyebrows. I HATED this advert, infact I think its one of the worst I have ever seen, the girl is SO annoying, I just wanted to give her a slap. The boy in the advert didn't annoy me half as much, just that weird girl with the weird eyebrows! :-@ Really really hate that advert!!!!!! Everytime I hear that song from it now I have to turn it off, it sends my bllo pressure through the roof I tell you!!!!
-"I want to do a poo at Pauls"- you know the one I mean!!! Its for one of the bathroom sprays which you get which you put on your wall and you spray. They've always been annoying adverts, but normally because they're foreign adverts which have so obviously been dubbed, although this ones the same, thats not why I hate it. Its just the whole thing of it, I don't know if you've seen it but its soemthing like this. Whiney little kid comes in and says to his mum "I want to do a poo", his mum like any says something like ok off you go then, but the whiney little child stands there indignant "I want to do a poo in Pauuullllssss bathroom", emphesis on the "Paaaulllsssss". His mum kind of looks at him like what the hell you on about child, and tells him in similar words don't be daft get to the loo. But no, the stupid whiney little child stands there with a right face on him "I'm going to do a poo at Pauls" and off he goes! Its so annoying because if my kid came in and acted like that it would be frogmarched to the toilet and told to stop acting like a prat! And the stupid little accent on the child is completely naff and fake and "oh la la".
As you can see, I hate adverts with kids in them, or alot of them, as the kids in the adverts are so damn annoying and stuck up and it just annoys me no end!!!!!!!!!
I know this is the "best and worst ads" but I am very sorry I don't have any favourites, I don't like any ads, they all do my nut in, yes I agree some are very clever (the Talk-Talk adverts for one), and yes some do give you a little giggle, but mainly they just get up your nose, people try too hard to make their adverts funny and outrageous and different, but they just end up been very annoying (i.e. BARRY SCOTT from Cilit Bang...I say BARRY SCOTT due to the volume of his voice when he introduces himself!). I don't know why they can't just pop up a picture of what they're selling, the RRP of the product (as they like to show you how "wonderful" the things are then fail to mention the price so when you go to buy it you have a mild angina attack at the steep price). And then be done with, it would be cheaper for them, it would be less annoying for us, and there'd be more space for good programmes on tv!!!!
Summary: I hate adverts!!!!!!
