Another annoying commercial was from Kia Automobiles:

What vehicle has the best 5-star crash rating?

A. The Kia Sedona
B. The Kia Sedona
C. The Kia Sedona
D. All of the Above


E. A jar of Cashews! :lol:

I don't know why, but German commercials are always terrible, especially the ones for cleaning equipment. Maybe it's the fact that they're always dubbed and that they try to be funny but fail miserably since German humor just doesn't work here.

Yeah right, german commercials are bad, the austrian ones are better.

The worst austrian commercial I know is that of Calgon, it's just horrible. :grr:

Haha, you're right, Calgon is the king of bad commercials. I'm so glad our national TV only shows some commercials between two programs and not in the middle of one.

How about the burger king commercials with they guy wearing the king outfit and that scary head that doesn't have any moving parts.


Here's a place to download the Head-On sound. Look for the link to the Zip file under the player.
