Adverts years back were quite entertaining and their catchphrases entered everyday conversation.It would be interesting to know how many viewers fully/properly take notice of adverts these days. Years ago with very few channels, adverts were just an extension of a programme's entertainment. These days, If watching on catch up, I quickly skip past them. When watching live, I use the opportunity to do something else. I notice the ads with music I know and like, but just to hear not to watch.
When I am actually concentrating, I've noticed so many adverts just have people dancing and prancing - what's that all about? Something on the cheap and lazy that doesn't require any thought of a storyline?
I really HATE perfume ads for women and men. They are all terrible.Though I found the song/tune really catchy at first, that perfume advert with Lana Del Rey and Jared Leto in it. I turn the television over every time it comes on lmao.
Same for the Valentino advert with Lady Gaga.
Something about perfume ads really annoy me but I don’t mind the Paco Rabanne one.
I couldn't tell you what half of the adverts are about these days tbh. A lot of them barely focus on the actual product and go into a documentary-style shoot on something random before showing the actual product which is hardly related to what the advert is showing. Car adverts are so so guilty of thisIt would be interesting to know how many viewers fully/properly take notice of adverts these days.

I know the exact one you're talking of! It's really distasteful how happy the daughter is portrayed.The Pure Cremation one with some woman gushing about their "beautiful crematorium" and how they were the perfect choice when planning her mum's funeral. I've never seen someone look so happy discussing a family member's death. And then at the very end - PLOT TWIST - her mum's actually still alive and they're sitting down to enjoy a glass of bubbly together.
Beyond tasteless, and as someone who actually lost my mum not too long ago it makes me want to put my foot through the screen.
Having said that all Mother seems bothered about is getting her glass refilledI know the exact one you're talking of! It's really distasteful how happy the daughter is portrayed.
Or vegetables! Yeah because kids buy that ha!The new one with those children rapping about school uniform?
that would be brilliant!The Lloyds Bank adverts. Why use depressing funeral music all the time. How about the horse galloping at full pelt to Ace of Spades by Motorhead or Waterloo by Abba.
Or Highway to Hell!that would be brilliant!
