The Gieco commercials annoy me because there are so many and their insurance isn't even available in my state.
"What's in your wallet'? Too many.
Feminine product's. Must be embarrassing for all in a mixed group.

I have to admit i have actually enjoyed the one commercial but the majority suck!
Quality of them overall has also gone down.

I like most of the ad-agency ones, but those locally cobbled together ones tend to suck. The care dealer that comes on and tells you about his car lot, but you can see his eyes going back and forth as he reads his cue cards, for instance.
Here in Ohio, there's a place called "American Freight". Their entire ad consists of this announcer screaming at you: "WATERBEDS FROM 399.99!!! SOFA, LOVESEAT, AND TABLE FROM 299.99!!! AMERICAN FREIGHT!!! AMERICAN FREIGHT!!!" Ugh... Zachary suggested we drop by one day, walk in the door, and scream, "WE'D LIKE TO BUY A SOFA!!!! SOFAS!!!! SOOOOOFFFFAAAAASSSSSS!!!!!!"
(And to the crowd that says, "Yeah, but you remembered their name," I can only reply that I also know the Watchtower's name, but you'll not see me buying what they're selling anytime soon.)

There is an even more annoying commercial from Avis with the staff and a car renter guy communicate by opening their mouths and having Twisted Sister's "I Wanna Rock" broadcast out their mouths.
Ohhhhhh, I despise this commercial. They look so goofy, the actors doing that commercial.

Not to switch subjects - but my favorite of all time was the Cat Herding SuperBowl commercial by some IT company
And I like the Cavemen -

Honda do the best adverts I've seen in the last few years - consistently good. Catchy tunes, references to being environmentally caring, great cartoons or mechanical stunts which are really excellent.

The all time worst commercial for me is "HEAD ON, APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD" I just change the channel.
Oh, and the drug commercials that note what possible side effects the drug will cause and I think, WTF!
I like when the caveman is at his shrink and gets a call from his mom and says, "I'll put it on speaker".

I think I get those in Louisville too. In RI there are a bunch of commercials like that, there's the Furniture City from New Bedford and there's the awful Alpert's commercials. RI is like famous for the South Park parody commercials from Cardi, it makes no sense because it's like the most inane concept like waterskiing but it's south park styled characters.
I used to love the Got Milk commercials.

I can't stand Mentos commercials. And now Orbit gum seems to be using the same ad agency as Mentos...I can't stand theirs either.
And being in the cellular industry, it blows my mind that Alltel uses the tagline of, "Come and Get Your Love." WTF is that supposed to mean??? It makes absolutely no sense!
