Advertising has always played to the lowest common denominator, but lately, these McDonald's commercials seem particularly bad.
Just consider their market....

I only occasionally eat at McDonald's, just because they're everywhere and sometimes you just eat wherever you can find when you're traveling. Mostly I stay away.

I like mcdonalds, the burgers taste good but not as good as other fast food joint burgers but I don't care I eat them anyway the only thing I don't like is what happens about 1/2 an hour later. I'll let your imaginations run wild.

Yea, I have to agree...McDonalds commerials seem to have hit rock bottom over the last couple of years. Their advertising company went over to one of the other fast food chains and they had to get another, and it just isn't up to par.

I think the commercials are annoying too. I think Checkers is better than McDonald's anyway. Their fries are so much better than McDonald's.

Think of the people who go to McDonald's. Many are homeless, as McDonald's is the cheapest place they can get a hot meal. A lot of them have seen enough shit in their lives to go absolutely nuts, so you'll see them sitting there, eating their chicken selects, and talking to themselves: "Don't touch my chicken selects, bitch. If you touch my chicken selects, I'll give you a hug and make you smell like piss!"
Then again...most homeless people don't have TV's. So, maybe it's directed towards potentially homeless people?

Hmm. The only McDonald's commercial that I have given any thought at all was the one that featured about fifteen sets of breasts in close up, ostensibly so that you could read the messages on the tightly fitting t-shirts that covered them all up. McDonald's=Boobies from what I can see.

I am just upset that McDonald's "upgraded" their chicken nuggets to all white meat. They don't taste half as good now! I go to McDonalds maybe once every couple months and it is usually just to get an egg mcmuffin. Rarely ever get lunch or dinner there.

The Big Buford from Rally's is the best fast food burger out there, IMO. Sadly, I am nowhere near a Rally's.

Other than that, I go with White Castle. Sure, their buns are soggy and filled with grease and your breath afterwards is atrocious, but man oh man are they delicious!

You're refering to chicken breasts aren't you...otherwise which market was this one televised in?

Have you tried them? They are terrible. Everything at McDonnald's tastes like processed shit. The only thing I'll eat there and enjoy is their double quarter pounder with cheese. Isn't that fucked up in and of itself??? Their meat has to be filled with soy filler pumped with MSG or something.

I don't eat any fast food anymore...

What is the deal with the Tom Cruise, Risky Business dude in their ads? I see them on every damn bus in DC and I can't understand why the pimp of the neighborhodd is so upset that someone imaginary whore wants his chicken. Dude just go choke the chicken. OKay that was horrible and I apologize for my stupid sophmoric behaviour, but I still hate those damn ads!!!

What bothers me is that horseshit like these commercials work. They wouldn't dump obscene amounts of money into an advertising campaign that wasn't going to result in even greater returns. What is all this crap doing to kids heads? They aren't equipped to deal with billions of dollars worth of advertising engineered to forge them into good little monkeys of consumerism, this stuff really bothers me.

I think they were advertising salads or some shit. They were featuring women's torsos, and zoomed in on the "messages" on the t-shirts they were wearing. Can't say as I ever actually read one of the messages...

As for which market it was in - I saw it many, many times on Expressvu, though I don't know whether it was the East or West channel lineup...
