What the fk has become of Peloton??? Are their shares going through the floor & therefore they can't afford some new ads?

And why has that woman on the TV in one of their ads got four arms?

The most recent advert that I normally see is a confusing mix of one story where the young woman talks to Smudge the cat and then a mixture of stories with different trainers (male and female) and different clothing.

But more importantly, I'm not impressed with the bit where she swings the dumbbell. Is that a legitimate exercise?

I think you could be right about the Peloton shares, given they have stuck with the current advert for a whole month now.

Before, they changed as often as the instructors did.

Can't help but think that the Peloton (and their less well know cousin, Echelon) star will begin to wane now. When they had a captive audience (thanks to the unspecified virus from an unknown origin) they could sell nearly £7K worth of bike/subscription/accessories.
But now that we can go back to the gyms and sports centres, i think there are going to be a lot of households with very expensive clothes dryers stuffed in the corner.

The Ocado radio ad saying they sell "plant based meat".

Meh. The original AWS child returned over the F1 weekend. Had to mute the adverts. If I hear 'how did you do that?' one more time....

God this. fking awful.

Innocent Smoothie singing eco-animal followed by kids being driven to karate.

Surely this has to be incitement to murder.

I think it's fair to add the TV version, with the overly long "just for you" song, too.

“You’ve got this”

No I don’t.

Not an ad as such, but hearing Danny 'I'm a cocker knee' Dyer shouting about 'DER WAWL' between BBC programs is like nails down a chalk board.

Sun Life ( again) . Not June next door and the f@cking parsnips, but Carol Vorderman trying to cram as many “Sun Lifes “ as possible into 20 seconds.

So kevin bacon is now in a barbershop, talking to some guy on a mountain getting a cutthroat razor shave by a telematic robot arm controlled by a barber in his barbershop,
and i thought rita ora doing some dumb AR rubbish was enough,

God knows what they think they're selling, 'cos it really doesn't line up with what Ocado do. And that's before we get to how long and annoying it is.



Further nomination - Motability. Why do they think they need to advertise, who are they competing against?

Glad I’m not the only one, “if this wall could talk, what would it say” no doubt shut it you mockney wker

[LuS1fer]

Fever tree - how they go to the ends of the earth to get things like pure spring water.

I doubt it, you supercilious planks.

The Mustang Mach-e ad must be pretty dire too as I'm usually looking down, during ad breaks.
It consists of some crap music and right at the end they say something about Mustang Mach-E. By the time I glance up, all i see is something red disappearing off the screen. Pointless.

Virtue signalling. But it's a confusing mess of an advert. Just another multinational global giant saving the planet through mass consumerism.

Another mention here for the Innocent Smoothie advert.

Weird cartoon type thing with a horrible patronising song “we’re messing up the planet...” Looks like a primary school project done for a Blue Peter competition.

The bloke with the beard and guitar who’s doing the singing, he properly winds me up and I want to smash his face in. I know he’s a cartoon character but still.

i just cannot unsee that kid faceplanting on the aviva advert..........my OH rolls her eyes every time i LOL at it
