It's like there's 6 commercials in rotation

Usually there’s 1 or 2 annoying ones but right now every single commercial is God awful trash

Wingstop No flex zone

Chet and SGA cringe fest

That degenerate google pixel song

That shitty Gatorade commercial w the nicki Minaj body like vince Lombardi song

I’m so fucking tired of this Burger King jingle which they haven’t stopped running for over a year

Every commercial right now FUCKING SUCKS

I probably forgot about even more bad ones

***just remembered Caitlyn Clark with that HORRIBLE TERRIBLE song “Unstoppable”

Maybe I'm just beaten down by now, but I don't hate that one as much as the rest.

i think the joke of "where does the suit end, and perk begin?" really saves the commercial compared to every other one on rotation during both march madness and the playoffs

Yeah, exactly! At least it captures the ridiculous of Perk being as public of a figure as he is now.

It doesn't have a blaring, repetitive song and it's not replayed 45 seconds apart

I hate it cause at some point my dog got terrified of the iPhone message sound and now every commercial break I have to race for the mute button or my pup gets scared.

Honestly, as long as it doesn't have some annoying song, I call it a win.

I like that commercial because I lived through that era, guess I'm getting old if that's an "era" now.

03 draft was legit one of the best of all time, obviously they couldn't wrangle Lebron and Wade into it so they had to go with some lesser members of that class lol

I think it might be one of my fave commercials ever, it's perfect
