I absolutely hate that new Kit Kat candy bar commercial with the amplified chewing noises...I mute it every time! Even though I like Kit Kats, I'm not going to buy any while this ad is on...I find loud chewing noises totally obnoxious and irritating!!

Ironically, I used to like the Miller Lite beer commercials, and thought they were clever, even though I think it's probably the worst beer ever.

Go figure, good product/bad commercial...bad product/good commercial....

I really like the Target Christmas commercial where the dad is trying to hook up the electronics to the TV and is asking the son if anything is showing yet. The son tells him no but all you see is the Dad's behind on the huge TV while the mom and two other kids are trying not to laugh out loud!

Can't stand that new Jack in the box (or carl's junior) ad...the one with the top sirloin burger....especially the radio version one..ugh.

The Progressive insurance one is funny though.....the actress definitely made the whole commercial funny. Without her it won't be as special.

That one is hysterical.

Cruel beyond belief if they let that one go on for too long.

I like the commercial where the guy has to do wake-up calls for people on different continents & uses the changes accents as he goes.

Cheerios!!

I pretty much despise commercials that buy more than 30 seconds of air time....bowlfex or any other home gym manufacturer comes to mind.

Designer drugs are also extremely annoying....I've gotten out of the habit of having the TV on at all during the evening news hour because of my feelings about them.

The geico cavemen are funny, the gecko....not so much, but I definitely un mute the TV if the commercial is funny enough.....I love the "I'm good" ad, can't remember which beer company. I also liked the Beer commercial at this year's super bowl about the "clothes drive" in the office.

One of my biggest gripes about funny commercials is that they show the full version once....and then start airing these hacked up versions of the commercial that take ALL the humor out of it. They immediately get muted and ignored for that technique.

I like the e-trade baby commercial that Lindsay Lohan is suing over. Honestly, she isn't happy unless she's creating drama. "Milka what?" That line cracks me up.

I like the Geico commercial with the talking pot hole, but when they show it over and over again it gets old in a hurry.

I HATE tampon/pad commercials. That is the last thing in the world I want to think about at any point in time, tyvm!
