The Dominos yodelling is cretinous for sure, but the worst bit for me is the now obligatory for seemingly all adverts "We've got this".
+ 1 The yodelling is moronic on a whole new level. I just can’t imagine a meeting where someone would come up with that idea and other (grown up) Human beings, would say “ yeh, that’s great!”
Maybe why I don’t work in advertising.

I noticed during the football this evening that Domino's have started using a shortened version of the original, full length, ad cutting out most of the bit with the mechanic. Unfortunately the side effect of that, is they've now started showing 5 to 10 second "stings" with just the yodelling in nearly every ad break which is even more annoying than the original ad

That folding mobile phone ad. No I don't f
king want it.
Problem is, there are a sh*t-load of vapid, self-image obsessed numptys out there who are falling over themselves to spend thousands on a phone that, in the end, does no more than the phone they currently have, other than fold in half. king want it.How long will the excitement and interest from that feature last??
Even apple are struggling with innovation, having to introduce a line of lesser budget phones as the justification for their flagship models is marginal.
The phone has found its form, in the same way that the camera did,or TVs or hifi did, go to a shop and all products look much the same
So having spent a few billion making this thing they got to flog it now and need to reach out to their discerning customers
Not TV, but a radio ad (I heard it on Greatest Hits Radio, but I'm sure its available to annoy on other stations)
The 'myFiat' advert, the one that talks about the woman who has her finger on the pulse, always in the know, on top of her life...............................but has forgotten where she parked her Fiat 500.
But fear not, coz she can ask her phone to tell her where it is, because her car has 'Hey Google' fitted.
Now, the advert features a woman, but this goes equally for a man.
If you are someone who regularly forgets where you park, then don't you think you should be questioning your capability to safely drive a car???
Of all the 'Hey Google' features that Fiat could have picked for an advert, this one seems the most stupid.

The world is still not quite ready for the feature that drives the car to you when you need it. The tech has been there for some time.The 'myFiat' advert, the one that talks about the woman who has her finger on the pulse, always in the know, on top of her life...............................but has forgotten where she parked her Fiat 500.

Not sure if it makes me want to smash the tv, but there is an advert for itv drama or something. It shows a glamorous woman dancing and has a man locked up in a cupboard.
Can’t help but feel it’s making light of domestic violence, it’s not even a plot line it’s just an advert. Just Feels a bit distasteful.

prison sentence
I'm not 100% but the bloke tied up in the cupboard might be a reality star as the ad tagline is "drama v reality" or similar .
