Funny Commercials You Will Never See Again.
An Interactive Article.
Here is a second example of less than effective advertising. A bed wetting drug commercial that lasted almost as long as the Starburst jet commercial. Drug company ads for prescription medications annoy the heck out of me. I have to watch them though for the disclaimers at the end. Why? Because this bed wetting medication had a last line in the disclaimer that stated, "Proven 52% effective versus 48% effective using sugar pill." And you thought there was no honesty in advertising.
That's it for my contribution to this article. Now it is time for you to chip in. If you have an example of a humorous advertising blunder that has been pulled from the air waves, describe the commercial in the comments below.

This is an old one: A nervous couple sits at a nice restaurant. The woman's giant breasts rest on the table, and the man's toupee is slightly ajar. They look at each other and say, "There's something I need to tell you." They briefly argue about who should go first (and you're waiting for confessions about breast implants and fake hair). Finally, the man blurts out, "I have an astigmatism!" The woman lights up with relief. "Me, too!" she exclaims. I'm not sure what the commercial was for...maybe contacts?
Amy, that was great!
I just remember. There was one for high-speed internet access where this women is trying to learn sign language to communicate with the little boy next door, who is deaf. She bakes him a pie and takes it to him and does sign language but thanks to her slow internet connection she got it WAY wrong. Instead of, "I baked you a pie." She had said "I cooked your dog for you." ROFL So funny.
I love commercials like that, but can't think of any right now.
I get a kick out of the medical ads. I can almost hear the actors calling their agents to tell them that they do not feel the deserve to be on a commercial that might include diarrhia lol. Or the ones that have actors pretending to be a doctor but then you remember seeing them in a movie oh so long ago and then you start talking about what movie they was in and totally miss the commerical.
WOW! I haven't had any notifications of comments. Good job guys!
Joanna, I remember that dog puppet. It now does a couple of commercials for a car financing company dealing with high risk borrowers here in southern California. One of the spots claims that "It sucks to be without a car" as a man and woman wait endlessly for a bus on a street corner. The company is called 1-800-Bar-None.
I know it's not a "one-hit-wonder" commercial, but just saw one for a cancer center with patients saying the center put them into remission. The fine print read, "do not expect these results."
Oh, I have another one. Does anyone remember the little black and white puppet dog? He was for PETCO. It is a real old one. You see he is a hand puppet covering a long hairy arm and he tries to covince people to buy thier pet supplies at PETCO because of the low price by sayin the price is fiv...three dol..l..a..r...s. It always cracked me up. I love that one and miss it. Bye
