Have you seen the latest Pizza Hut commercials with some idiot yelling JACKPOT! about some new ring of cheese on the crust? (see below if not)
I hate them.
Every time I see the commercials I want to throw something at the tv. Tonight I got irritated enough that I looked up the customer feedback phone number on the website and called the company to complain about it.
It’s been a long time since I offered my valued feedback to a company about a commercial (I’ve done so a dozen times over my life – both positive and negative). But this one is the most irritating thing on tv right now, imo, and something had to be done.
On the other hand – I smile every time I see the new Prius Hyrid commercials.
What commercials are you loving or hating?
oh wow. That is the most annoying commercial I’ve seen in a long time. I’m glad you complained 🙂
And I love those Prius commercials. Very cute.
I, too, agree with you. I just love those Prius commercials. But they had to grow on me, at first I didn’t get it.
Such a hippie.. LOL.. How did the Pizza people respond to you?
Rob, the gal asked me specifically what bothered me about it…. apologized, and said she’d make sure the information got to their marketing team.
I also do not like that commercial! I do love the Swiffer commercials about the ugly mop tossed aside and wanting to come back to the housewife.
I HATE the jackpot guy also…Paul loves the “Slap Chop” commercial. Every time they guy says “you’re gonna love my nuts” he cracks up.
I love/hate the humane society commercials with all the pitiful kittens and puppies and dogs in terrible cages. I have to switch the channel so I don’t tear up. How anyone could be cruel to a pet is impossible for me to comprehend.
Well Pizza Hut is sitting back smiling b/c you hated the commercial and now it is stuck in your subconscious! And now all of us have watched it. It worked for them! 🙁 I don’t watch commercials. I either mute the TV (which always made my kiddos mad) or watch DVR and fastforward right through them! Love the topic Allison!
I’m very pro-healthcare reform, but this ad by moveon.org irritates me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCbqxuxg734 — I don’t know Mr. Reichart, but unfortunately our political system is built on campaign contributions (and favors). This advertisement makes it look like he should be indicted for something illegal. Certainly, I believe the current obstruction movement for anything on the President’s agenda, is way too political rather than rational, but I would rather they do informational commercials, instead of these attack ads.
Another one the drives me batty is this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxIwwrO2JYg (http://recipes.howstuffworks.com/question370.htm) — Soda is not a necessity.
I’m a big fan of the Mac (vs. PC) commercials. I suppose I’d rather have a Mac but my chosen profession keeps me chained to Microsquish… 🙁
Any commercial with Billy Mays annoyed the hell out of me. Sorry that he’s dead, but at least it’s quiet. :/
My wife gets so enamored of some that I actually have to rewind the DVR so she can see them. ??? “There ain’t no bugs on me, there ain’t no bugs on me, there may be bugs on some of your mugs, but there ain’t no bugs on me” Memorized the dang song!
She’s cute and adorable (my wife, not the commercial), though, so I put up with it… 🙂
Lyle, I love those Mac vs. PC commercials too. My son – a life long PC has recently switched to Mac and is singing its praises. I don’t know if and when I’ll make the switch…. right now I’m deciding if I want to go to the hassle of upgrading to 7. I refused to participate in any way in the Vista fiasco.
