FTA-TV Ads that piss you off (3)

Adam Gilchrist’s tequila. Tequila?!? Adam with his dyed hair and no socks. The whole thing jars.

Guys (especially those who go on tv), don’t dye your hair to try to look younger.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

The AAMI safe driver ads, with a bunch of smug gifts being completely insufferable about how safe they are.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

The Commonwealth Bank ad where the icecream truck driver doesn't stop for the little group of kiddies chasing his van, including a disabled one in a wheelchair, but continues boasting on the phone to his loan manager how popular he is. When he finally does stop, does he jump out to serve the kids? No. Just sits in his van congratulating himself.

Any ad that was made overseas and uses Aussie actors to dub the voices. Like this one...

Although he is also sitting on the right side of the car.

Same with this ad, looks British, you can't fool us with Aussie accents, we weren't born yesterday.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

The Gilchrist tequila ad gets more cringeworthy every time I see it .
Mute.

Think I’ve mentioned that ad in this thread before, as the most unnatural/unrealistic conversation between a father and son that was ever recorded on film.

 

[StillAtLarge]

Finish dishwashing liquid (I think?) ad is also incredibly poorly dubbed. Definitely a seppo ad: vaseline faces and perfect teeth

 

[Voula]

There are so many ads that are annoying me lately.

• Google phone ad with the icecreams.
• Koala where there is a couch or sofa bed in a room with monkeys.

 

[MJG14]

The Betr ad with the goat head. That abomination seems to come on every ad break on Kayo, usually twice.

Fourtunately in the old days Aussie Actors were used

American



Australian

 

[Plugger35]

Mello Yello is a blast from the past.

It couldn't compete with the Solo Man though in the lemon soft drink market.

 

[brucetiki]

I was in Japan a couple of months ago, and I found a Fanta/Yello Mello collaboration in one of the convenience stores.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Why is it that every ad on YouTube is always much louder than the video you're watching? It's infuriating.

The man's never drank a Duff in his life.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

The man's never drank a Duff in his life.

Or drank “shotties” on a dance floor at 3am . At his age?

 

[Pistol Night]

The man's never drank a Duff in his life.

I dunno. Gilly was an absolute grog monster in his playing days

 

[Beejay Crow]

Finish dishwashing liquid (I think?) ad is also incredibly poorly dubbed. Definitely a seppo ad: vaseline faces and perfect teeth

The Vileda mop ads were also known for their very poor dubbing:

 

[Amazing Racer]

Anyone mention the NRMA 'Help' adds.........they are equally annoying on the radio but the one on TV with the 'light' is beyond annoying

 

[GreekLunatic]

The youi ads

 

[NSWCROW]

 

[StillAtLarge]

The youi ads

I've never warmed to Ed Kavalee

And apart from anything else, the riff on the pan pipes gets stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
