The schmoozy, schmalzty "Sharp Experience"(Sharp Healthcare) commercials intended to jerk tears - yuck.

Also, a very pompous-sounding and looking Lasik doctor (name?) who says he is THE best.

It goes beyond that, they even have infomercials now. Have you seen them?

I haven't seen this year's yet, but, yes--I've endured them in the past
I take it this year's is as sickening (No offense to any Sharp people out there--the care is okay, but the commercials suck IMHO!)

Oh...THAT is the WORST! It's amusing at best.

Any of the local ambulance chaser commercials are pretty bad, too.

Any commerical involving a local sports celebrity, they all suck. The fake grass one with LT, and any Corky's Pest Control ones.

Also, by far the worst ones are the Pacific Law Center ones, the ones with those people who committed crimes and somehow got off cause of sleezy lawyers at Pacific Law Center.

I am tired of the SD County Credit Union commercials especially the one with the little girl which basically insulted the rest of San Diego by wishing that everyone should be happy.

The other SD County Credit Union commercial with the mom and the little girl in an expensive house is too arrogant like "I am too good, too beautiful and too rich. I only bank at San Diego County Credit Union." type of commercial.

Okay, I finally had to register, because of this question, after lurking a long time. I HATE local commercials like the Diamond Source where they use a narrator with a British accent. Am I impressed? No. Having been to England many times, I am not. I also hate that car commercial where some car dealer has a bunch of -- I guess -- sultry sounding women sing "Something better, altogether." I don't watch much local TV, but I listen to the radio while commuting. These annoying commercials, among other things, are just one of the reasons I listen to KFI instead of KOGO, except when the traffic reports come on KOGO.

The one that has who looks like Mike Myers with a bunch of women (or men made up to look like women) at the pottery place, at the end he says "Groovy, bay-bay!"
