Is anyone else getting sick of these (the one where the adult asks them questions like is it better to be faster or slower)? Is this the proper board for commercial critiques?

I don't think I'll ever get tired of them. They're my favorite commercials on TV. I think they're hilarious.

They're the best thing since the caveman commercials.

I'm with you, OP. The first 50 times I saw them I enjoyed them. Now I hate them because they're on so damn much.

I hate any commercial with kids when it's something geared towards adults: phone service, cars, cable comapanies, etc. Put kids in toy commercials and call it a day.

There's a couple new ones out this week they've been airing during the basketball tourney. I like 'em.

New Mayhem commercials, too.

I enjoy them, but there are some bombs.

Good:
- "Do you believe in yourself?" + High-Five Controversy
- Candy Island... "What about the animals, I mean...what would THEY be made out of?"
- "We want more, we want more."
- "Hold on, I'm watching this."

Bad:
- The treehouse one. That one little kid who blabbers about the TV being small is ridiculous.
- "Nicky Flash"
- Werewolf

I like the one where they are talking about the "pickle roll" and the black kid is shaking his head because he is the only one who understands basketball.

I can't say I actually like any commercials, but at least the kids in these just act like kids. Most commercials with kids have them make snarky adult comments, like they're the smartest people in the room. Telling Aaron Rodgers he doesn't have a real job, the e-trade baby, etc. Those make my blood boil for some reason.

I dont like any of them, especially the tree house one.

The guy gives off a pedo vibe. He is sitting there questioning all these kids about what they like so he can use it later on to get them into his free candy van

In the advertising world, companies like this have spent millions to make parents think they should give a crap about how big-dollar purchases affect their children's social status.

Encouraging parents to let their kids become the little turds (cleaned that up) these kids are, insures many shallow, image conscious, "my family is the coolest", parents for the future.

It's a little like making the texting guys at the ballgame the witty, "cool" people. This phone company is just trying to get in on them earlier.

People who don't think for themselves, & worry too much about what others think, will be sucked in very easily.

These commercials are hilarious. Kind of a spin of kids say the darnedest things. Love them.
