View Full Version : MOST OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD COMMERCIALS ON TV, right now
Mr. Hanky 02-05-09, 01:05 AM DirecTv pay-per-view commercial
pro-wrestling commercials
Bowflex commercials
THEY MUST DIE, NOW!!! They're not just the usual commercials loud. They manage to take it to a whole new level of irritating, shouting down even other commercials. They piss me off, especially when I leave the room for a bathroom break (tv seemingly at a polite and quiet level) and then those particular commercials come-on (whilst I'm in mid-piss mode) and make the neighbors think I am purposely being annoyingly loud with my tv. Whoever is responsible for these particularly aggregious offenses should absolutely be waterboarded. I don't care if they have no secrets to reveal- waterboard'em to make the point. :p
Anybody else notice these? Got some different ones? Post'em here.
VisionOn 02-05-09, 01:46 AM Commercials? What is this? The Nineties? ;)
coyoteaz 02-05-09, 01:46 AM Progressive insurance commercials. Loudmouth chick certainly qualifies as obnoxious.
nickdawg 02-05-09, 02:13 AM Progressive insurance commercials. Loudmouth chick certainly qualifies as obnoxious.
Ahh, you mean Flo, the Amy Winehouse look alike!! :D:D:D
Mr. Hanky 02-05-09, 03:10 AM Ah, that reminds me, there were a few of those cartoon e-surance commercials that were ridiculously loud, a while ago.
coyoteaz 02-05-09, 05:00 AM Ahh, you mean Flo, the Amy Winehouse look alike!! :D:D:D
Whatever her name is, she's the reason the Mute button on my remote doesn't have any letters on it anymore and why I'll never choose Progressive. Bad behavior will not be rewarded.
allargon 02-05-09, 06:53 AM Nope. That stop snoring commercial is the worst one by far. The Bose commercials are the second loudest.

Only in the middle frequencies.
NetworkTV 02-05-09, 07:14 AM Only in the middle frequencies.
Even with their patented bass chamber technology? ;)
Honestly, fo me, it's usually the local inserts by the local station or cable company that get me. The volume level is nowhere close.
However, MGMHD bugs me with their promos. One might be quiet as a mouse, while the next booms out like a cannon.
Seriously, if you experience a particularly loud commercial, please post it here. If you can also post the channel it aired on, that would also help. Local cable ads are a special case.
We don't care whether you liked the commercial or not, just which ones are obnoxiously loud (or soft...) If you want to talk about Flo, start your own thread.
Well, it could be because he's so obnoxious that I think his commercial is too loud, but the any commercial with the "ShamWow" guy just irks me to know end.
Marcus Carr 02-05-09, 08:53 AM What's a commercial?
All the DirecTV commercials for their PPV and their new features are very loud. The NFL Network is also louder than the other channels.
NetworkTV 02-05-09, 03:24 PM The NFL Network is also louder than the other channels.
It has to be louder so people will know their carrier has it... ;)

Flo is obnoxiously loud. She screams and the one with the new year's party favor is the worst. Definitely MUTE button worthy.
Another candidate, BILLY MAYS!! HI, I'M BILLY MAYS HERE FOR...
That guy needs to shut up. He's always screaming!! :mad::mad::mad:

I WANT MORE 02-05-09, 04:17 PM The NFL Network is also louder than the other channels.
Thank-you for confirming that it isn't just me that thinks that. I can't believe that no one has mentioned the Dodge Ram commercials that were so prominent throughout the NFL playoffs.
Kendrid 02-05-09, 04:18 PM Pro-Active acne cream. That commercial annoys us every time it is on.
steverobertson 02-05-09, 04:38 PM They all annoy me but wacth very few, that is what the DVR is for.
Mr. Hanky 02-07-09, 01:10 AM Another one I forgot to mention- a lot of ads for sexual aid kind of products seem to be awfully loud. I'm not talking about the commercials for clinical ED. I'm talking about the products that make you "harder, faster, longer". ;)
Also, new to the list today- the "start a career with DirecTv today" commercial. I mean- I guess employment opportunities are surely welcome news the way things are, lately, but is it really necessary to drive it home with the fervor of icepicks through the ears?
e-surance seems to be back with a new installment on the sexy lady-agent with full-on, epic loudness.
Jedi Master 02-07-09, 09:02 AM The Billy Mays commercials.
Worthless beer commercials.
Gieco commercials.
