    The new Snickers' commercials aren't really inappropriate but are really stupid.

    Re: Inappropriate Commercials

    I've seen two more Viagra commercials. The band isn't in them, but at the end it says Viva Viagra.

    One is of a couple dancing at a wedding reception and they skip out of the reception to spend some time alone. Another is a guy putting things away in the kitchen when he notices lids from plasticware. He ends up taking all the lids out to the pool and puts lit candles on them. She comes out to the pool, notices what he has done, and they go back inside to also spend some time alone.

    My 79-year-old Mom thinks that the guys who sing the Viagra song should start up a real band and go on tour! She says they could call themselves the Viagra Boys!

    Oh, I so agree, Animal! Those have got to be among the dumbest commercials I've seen in ages.
    I live in my own world. But it's ok, they know me there.

    I saw one the other day, too, and thought stupid. But now I can't even remember how it went. So, not only dumb, but ineffective too.

    I don't get how Ford figures the use of an obnoxious jerk, aka "Random Celebrity Guy", is a smart ad campaign.

    I'm probably repeating myself but I find almost all of the radio and television commericals for Hardees offensive and degrading to women. They're clearly aimed towards the male market and for that reason I don't eat there. Well that's not the only reason but it's the main one.

    I find Hardess offensive overall. Do not eat there. But mostly because the food sucks.

    Could someone discribe these offensive Snickers ads? I haven't seen them.
    Count your blessings!

    I don't think anyone's said they're offensive, just that they're so dumb. Too dumb to describe, you'll just have to see for yourself. Here's one of them.

    I watched the clip. Dumb is too complimentary of an adjective to use for the commercial......
