[TractorBoys]

The idea is each week we will have a new thread taking on some of the hard hitting topics of the modern world.

Week #1: Worst TV Advert of All Time

My Nomination;

So bad that it actually led to widespread rumors on the internet that the lead in it tried to kill himself shortly after. Later confirmed to be false.

 

[silkyman]

Any perfume advert.

 

[claret50]

Any advert concerning betting.

 

[Camborne Gills]

The over 50s pension plan ads

 

[Stevencc]

Those McDonald's ones with the "poetry" and any that feature what sounds like the same woman ruining old songs by singing them a bit slower and with "feeling".

 

[Craig]

I said my first word at one.
Kicked off the stabilizers at four.
United mad at seven.
Bored at eleven.
First black iron girlfriend at fourteen.
Left school at sixteen.
Broke my arm.
Broke a bank.
18 about nights in the castle.
But then I stopped pulling pints and I started pushing myself.
I am again.
Made a leap.
Learned to think on my feet.
And off them.
I put my life in the hands of others and have their lives in mine.
I left home,
I wrote home,
I found a new home.
I did things I never dreamed I would.
And overcame things I never thought I could.
The elements,
the distance,
the fierce doubts
and all seven continents.
Sure,
I was born in Carlisle,
but I was made in the Royal Navy.

Those Trivento wine adverts they show on Discovery / Quest. This is but one of them, there are a few, all equally cringeworthy. Serves me right for watching those channels I guess.

From early this year but still a contender for worst of all time is the Flo and Joan ads for Nationwide which had me begging for them to stop...

 

[Redpelt]

The Wrigley's ad ,were the father knocks on the daughters door just after young Tom has tore the back out of his offspring and just finished wiping his cock on the curtains ,only to open the door standing as brazen as you like chewing gum. "Hi I'm Tom" * short silence "Pick a fucking window Tom"

Back then Wii really seemed to lack a taste of style. Or maybe the creative team was just, well, slow.
