What is the most annoying commercial you ever had to endure on television? My favorite for the worst of the worst has to be the original for a product called Head On. It is an advert for a headache relief product called "Head On".

This sucker has a habit of airing repeatedly at the very worse possible moment, like during a tense dramatic scene of a movie...

The annoying guy that looks like Bluto from the old Popeye cartoons. He is the announcer for all KaBoom,Oxy clean/Orange Glow products. His voice grates on my nerves! He seems to be yelling at you the whole time he is talking. I hit the mute button and walk away every time his mug appears on my TV. Here is a mild sample of him...ugh!

He's one reason why I seldom watch the boob-tube. When I do turn on the tube, I record it using my video capture card that I've got on my computer. That was an expensive piece of hardware but well worth the expense that it strains fools like that out of my experience...Thank the Lord above for Nero...

I am with you on that one...I hate the head on one and it's annoying as hell. But you have to give it to them for that. Now you will never forget about the product. You can hate their commercial but you wont be able to forget about it either. The point they wanted to make was for you not to forget their product and in this point they made it clear.

Head On is definitely one of the most annoying.
Lately I have been seeing a lot of annoying Comcast commercials. I guess they can air as many as they want since they are the cable company. It's annoying that there are so many and they are so frequent.

The Head On commercials have to be some of the worst in history. There is a company in our area called HMS and their commercials are pretty annoying too. Mercury car company has a women who has been doing their commercials for several months now and for some unexplained reason I can't stand her. Make me NOT WANT to buy a Mercury vehicle.

Those Head On commercials are pretty bad, as well as the "On" products that are out now. However, for me, THE most annoying commercials were the ones for Quiznos that had those creepy looking hamster things that would sing "we love the subs...". I'd cring whenever it came on, scramble for the remote, and change the channel so I wouldn't have to look at them!
