Quiznos Sub Commercial
2004-02-25, 4:05 PM #1
Has anyone seen the commercial by Quiznos subs? The one with the cut outs of animals singing a song... If not check it out at The Quiznos Site ... Well I think its hilarious but I had a thought nudging in the back of my mind that I've seen those characters before somwhere... I thought I had seen them online some where... Anybody seen it somewhere? If so, where?

Here is where you've seen them. The guy who runs rathergood.com makes commercials for a few things, one of them being Quiznos.

A lot of people in WA state have complained about them (called corporate offices, any station that runs the ads, etc.), but business is booming I guess.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who finds these commericals to be the most maddeningly annoying things ever to be televised! I will never eat at Quizno's because of them.

...This is a sad day for Massassi... You guys actually.. like... that commercial?
*shudders in disgust*
Honestly, I don't know when corporations started to think that they could get business from people by annoying the utter crap out of them, but I curse that day.

Ugh.

And on another note, I'm in the same boat as Sine. I will *not* be eating at Quizno's for some time... if ever again.

Actually, he does commercials for VH1 with the Kittens, or at least did. I haven't seen them in a while. Check the FAQ. It mentions the things he does work for.

I obviously hate it. If this is the way advertising is going to go, I want to shoot the man responsible in the face. Honestly, this was as funny to me as bathroom jokes. It was funny for all of 5 seconds, then it was annoying, and finally I was ready to change channels in disgust. I didn't becuase I wanted to see the whole thing. Now when it comes on, I change channels.
