Some really are bad, like they haven't even tried to make it look legit.
Two that spring to mind are the Uncle Bens boil in the bag rice with the guy that throws a bag into a gyser.
Another is Fiat one with Bruno Senna, terrible!

wobble that's why Ford number plates are always mirror capable.

And another annoying thing about that advert, who honestly likes to go to the supermarket in their spare time?!

Its like Europe is getting its own back on us. They always used to have REALLY badly dubbed English speaking programmes on tv.

There was an ad for some male grooming product featuring Jean Alesi. Unfortunately, they didn't use Alesi's actual voice for the English version.

I am pretty sure the Gaviscom ads are American but with an English soundtrack overdubbed.

Companies are so lazy and cheap. I hate it when I see dubbed adverts. It's always a black mark against the company. And I try to buy the competitor.

The new Megane Coupe one!!
Extreme dubbing.
It seems that car companies are one of the main offenders. hehe

I seem to recall that some ads were said to be badly dubbed on purpose in the eighties. Not sure how true that is
