As for the worst commercial ever, that cake is taken by a PSA I saw once. There was an entire campaign of these, and this is actually not the best one, there were longer ones, but they all panned out in the this same sort of way.

I like how none of the commercials in this ad campaign ever actually came out against the concept of VD, or even explained what VD was. Amazing.

My vote goes to that Oh Henry commercial where the guy randomly stops infront of a giant puddle, and then randomly does a wire dance and falls face first in because he is "hungry". Now as a person I generally find it agravating when people are over critical of minorly unrealistic things, or adverse concepts, but that comercial was just so out there I couldn't help but be filled with rage every time I saw it... I mean, I have been hungry before, and to date I have successfully controlled the apparent physics defying 'dance impulse' with really no trouble at all. What is Oh Henry saying? That thier product is totally useless because it prevents a symtom of hunger that is totally physically impossable, let alone non existant?

What currently bugs me are the Progressive Insurance ads. If quotes for car insurance are so difficult to find, why are the insurance competitors giving Progressive their rates? If Progressive, a competitor of other insurance companies, can "instantly" retrieve rates of three other competitors, wouldn't that competitor be more than willing to offer the rate ot a potential customer? Seems sensible to me.

I'm more concerned about that Ditech guy than anything else at this point. Why won't someone just cut him a break? Even his mother takes a crap on him in a commercial for crying out loud. It's sad.
And I'm wondering, maybe the last commercial in that ad campaing will be that guy all alone in his rundown apartment, and then he'll be like "I lost my job, my wife, my family, my house, my life............AND NOW I LOST ANOTHER LONE TO DITECH!!!" Then he'll shoot himself or something. That's the only way I see the commercial series ending.

You would see around 20 or so Minitmen singing this song walking thru a shop.
