Worst Dutch commercial...

[foraloysius]

This commercial was elected as the worst commercial of 2006. Personally I think the people who voted for it have no sense of humor, I was LMAO when I saw this for the first time.

"Thorough cleaning doesn't have to be a punishment anymore..."

It's really weird!? First time I saw... euh what's that. Seconde time, yeah that's funny. Third time ooh plz next one... It not so bad, personally I thought they would vote for the CALGON commercials, those are soooooooooooo bad...

Srry, I was looking for an example on you tube seems that there are no english spoken one's like in dutch. Maybe they are really bad

 

[dalangdon]

I thought it was hillarious!

I agree, it's a great commercial. But maybe the general Dutch "funny bone" is turned off by anything that suggests forced labor (echoes of WWII and all).... just speculating...

I also understand the "Seinfeld" series, wildly popular in the USA, was very unpopular in Germany. Probably nothing to do with Jerry's ethnicity. Probably more to do with Germans not being able to relate to the do-nothing lifestyle of most of the show's main characters, or the fact that the show was supposed to be "about nothing".

That same commercial was over here as well, I remember seeing it though I can't remember if the actors are the same I think they are. And I can't say for sure if it was airing on a Canadian station or a US station because we have both on our cable.

LOL. What's punished most when I clean my bathroom is my nose, from the very strong chlorine chemicals. I usually have a sinus headache the next day, and sometimes have even had to step out of the room for a short time to right myself. Sure glad my bathroom has a window I can open!

Scott,

I avoid the chemicals by using my Steamer.
I clean my bathroom and my ceramic tile floor chemical-free.

the commercial was hysterical!

Here's my vote for the worst German commercial. it has nothing to do with cleaning, though.

dadgummit! It wouldn't load.

Could someone please tell me how to load a video clip in wmv format???

 

[sudsmaster]

As far as I know, this site only supports uploads of .jpg files, not wmv files. I think you'd have to place the .wmv file on a web site and then post a link to it.

I don't think you can link from here to files stored on your local computer (unless that computer is a web server).

Great commercial.

That's how I feel everyday!

I don't use anything with chlorine bleach unless I'm fighting mold and mildew. Comet Bathroom Cleaner is a very good product and if you clean regularly, (twice a month is usually a good routine to keep on top of things) you can mix the cleaner by half with water and it works perfectly well. Not a bad scent either and it's also a disinfectant so there is no need for bleach for that reason. Spray it liberally on all surfaces, allow it to work for a few minutes, then scrub lightly with a brush and rinse. Done!
