Liberty Mutual and Progressive commercials are the worst. I usually change the channel quickly when either comes on. I seriously lose IQ points watching them.

I had nearly given up hope for all commercials until the Progressive "act like your parents" ones. Those get me every time.
Sadly, some of those hit a little close to home, like moaning getting up/sitting down.

I think I could write some of their bits. I think they should do one where everyone shows up at 3 for a seminar that starts at 6. The speaker is at the door turning people away, reminding them of the start time.

Are the Liberty Mutual commercials supposed to be funny? All of the emu and Doug commercials are bad.

I'm hi jacking this thread:

Two things I don't understand that annoys me on TV sports is:

1) Why do fans stand and yell at bowling matches? Does the ball respond to the cheers as it rolls along the lane?

2) What is it with girl gymnasts in college meets? Why do these competitors jump around like jr high girls when a teammate lands a simple flip? Don't they know college gymnastics are like the Sr. PGA golf league? No one watches / cares but their immediate families? And don't they know 95% of the college girl gymnasts are too overweight for their height? And shouldn't they find uniforms that cover better?

I am waiting for the Hawkeye Bleach commercials. There are plenty of U of Iowa fans who need their Hawkeye bleached. See urban dictionary.

You can hate FLO (as most people do I think) but don't loop all Progressive commercials into the hate category. They have one of the best running Commercial bits. The "Becoming Your Parents" spots.
I’ve actually heard multiple stories from different Hollywood people that the actress that plays her is one of the most arrogant, stuck up people you’ve ever met. Apparently has some strange impression that she’s an Oscar winning actress when on set and demands she’s treated like it.

I think in a properly functioning society, a commercial for a product would be required to clearly state what the product is and why it's beneficial/competitive with other products. That's it.

So it gets detestable to see companies try to use humanifying elements such as a god damn emu to trick stupid people into buying their product.

Why does the bench cheer in basketball when a player makes a "routine" free throw or and uncontested layup? Don't they know college gymnastics are like the Sr. PGA golf league? No one watches / cares but their immediate families? I watch if it's on TV And don't they know 95% of the college girl gymnasts are too overweight for their height? Muscle, hell I'm overweight for my height but you wouldn't look at me and think fat And shouldn't they find uniforms that cover better? Hell No

I hate all of them , they are the stupidest thing recorded
with all of these, I hate em, then they get so bad I enjoy em, then I hate them again, then it's white noise. I work in ad world. Limu Emu and Doug is eerily similar (minus the emu part) to a spot I pitched for a vacation rental company. Starsky and Hutch vibes.
