4. The "Air America radio" spot
Edited on Mon Apr-05-04 08:56 PM by JaySherman
That monotone voice against dead air that just keeps repeating, "Air America radio..."

5. I hate the "Embedded" commercial...
Edited on Mon Apr-05-04 08:58 PM by foamdad
especially the part where they're giving the reviews: "Who said that?...Whoa."
The OnStar ads are pretty bad too.
I like the "Air America" spots.

7. I think its the "whoa" part that gets me
Just rubs me the wrong way, I guess. No offense, Mr. Robbins.

11. Not sure about my favorite..
but I hate that one about parents being involved in their kids lives...nice message but I hate the part where the guy is calling role.."LISA'S DAD..I SAID LISA'S DAD"..it's just loud and annoying.

The "877-FATFREE..877-FATFREE..877-FATFREE" ad is annoying too.
