At some point an investigation must be launched into whether Jon Hamm’s agent is actively working against him. This ad relies on food puns, because he’s in a fridge, get it? Because of his last name! And Oscar winner Brie Larson is there too, because cheese! They’re a sandwich! This ad isn’t helped by the inclusion of Pete Davidson, who pops up in things like this to barely exist. This one felt lazy, and beneath the talents of everyone involved.

Any Ad Asking Viewers to Scan a QR Code

Look, QR codes are fine for restaurant menus. But stop asking us to scan things during commercials! Some of us are beers deep, trying to find the last remnants of the taco dip! We can’t be bothered! We don’t care about your mobile game or that new Joel McHale show! Stop giving us homework! Most of our phones aren’t even charged enough to do this anyway!

The Weird

The Unstoppable Jesus PR Machine

Jesus has been around for over 2000 years. He has one of the most prolific careers of all time. So why are there so many ads promoting him all of a sudden? These ads are truly bizarre regardless of your faith. It also doesn’t help that they’re linked to a virulent, anti-LGBTQ organization. But even ignoring that, these ads, promulgating such ideals as “being childlike” and “loving those who hate us” seem… out of place.
