CONSUMER CELLULAR

 Consumer Cellular ads, at best, are acceptable. But their newest one showing a couple on a tacky stage set enjoying date night is very offensive. Why? Because Ted Danson makes a big deal out of shooing the restaurant musician away. His obvious dislike of such musicians, while not uncommon, is not for him to proclaim on television. I lost a lot of respect for this annoyingly opinionated actor with this ad.

AMAZON

While bragging about how much Amazon drivers make, they also leave the impression they are

stupid. This driver lets his young daughter choose her own cone. Not having any guidance from

Dad, she chooses the largest, which she can barely handle. What is this commercial supposed to

demonstrate:good salaries lead to greed?

CELEBRITY SPOKESPEOPLE

I really disapprove of Kevin Bacon and other wealthy celebrities doing commercials. They are depriving

other talented less famous people from making a living in advertising. I hate to think of how much unneeded money poured into Shaq's coffers that could have support some actor or actresses family. But

I guess having large egos tends to shrink any sense of sympathy.

 LIBERTY MUTUAL

Please. Please ]. Dump this irritating emu campaign which was never clever. I've despised Doug from day one and the more you try to make him likable, the more I loathe him. Almost all your other commercials also suck and I think we've had enough of the Statue of Liberty.Why not hire an ad agency that has a creative staff.

FLU SHOTS

I  really like and admire the commercial featuring the wolf in sheep's clothing. (or at least a covering of wool).The narration is good.The photography is excellent.And whoever trained that wolf did a great job. I never get tired of seeing this spot, which I can't say about many others.

 XFINITY

I would say that the recent over-exposed commercials for Wi-Fi are the most annoying spots on the air.This is true of the digusting hillbillies commercial and the mostly black oil-men versions. They are so ill-conceived and annoying I leap to change the channel whenever they come on, which is far too often. But I find some major faults with every Xfinity commericial. Who creates this crap?

STANTON OPTICAL

Another odd commercial.Is this kid's father so ignorant that he thinks his grand-appt's glasses are the same prescription his son needs? I also don't understand why they chose a penguin for a spokesperson. 

 CONSUMER CELLULAR

This company has never done a good commercial, and their latest are the worst,  The huge piggy bank is especially bad since  container that size would hold a lot more than the price given. And when Ted hammers a hole in it and all those coins pose out he  says, "I can't feel my feet." Who came up with that stupid line when all he had to do was step back. The man in the phone booth is another losers, a totally uncreative spot, made worse by Ted unnecessarily explaining what cargo pants are.  The latest with the cheap restaurant set doesn't even deserve an explanation, 

REESES

These frequently run commercials look like they were conceived and executed by a 10-year old at at cost of his weekly allowance. I for one do not want to look inside the cup, I know what's there. Dippy lines like the chocolate saying, "You complete me." are beyond stupid. A product as wonderful as Reese's Peanut Butter Cups deserve better, I'm suspect the same uninspired creative team did Cheese-Its,
