What, no pedobear references?

In Japan, no one would even comment about that room. Except maybe "Kawaiiiiiiiiii!" or "Why isn't it Hello Kitty?"

Good god, what was I thinking...watching these before climbing into bed. The bears may not have real eyes but what stops that creepy Mr Sleep from enlisting the help of that pointy beaked pigeon from pecking my eyes out as soon as I drift off. And why is there a wood chipper in this advertisement? Seems like an awful lot of mixed messages here.

Gives new meaning to "I wear my sun glasses at night".

Here is worse, I think.

Our 2D animated bears have dingleberry problems with toilet paper.

This may be the most alarming thing you have ever seen in your lifetime. Warning, you cannot un-see.

:lol2:

I swear I just saw this commercial and was like WTF? That's just creepy.

"...so the bear wiped his ass with the rabbit."

Oh, and what about those Steak and Shake commercials with the talking hat? I have to say, if I carried a gun, and if I ate at Steak and Shake, and Doofus Dude's hat started moving its jaw like that, I'd shoot him in the face. The hat, not Doofus Dave. Though it would have the same effect for Doofus Dave, I think.

Dana, the Jammy Dodger advert didn't seem all that dodgy to me.
First rule of advertising - everyone loves monkeys.
After all they are influencing customer choice in a supermarket and only to a woman already considering biscuits. And they are reasonably realistic, and sound Oriental. Chinese monkeys are not threatening. CHINA monkeys on the other hand belong in the same category as clown dolls.

Re the Charmin (Cushelle?) advert "Enjoy the go" is a hideous tagline.
I'd prefer Have A Nice Shit.

Steak and Shake..... OMG
Make those silver bullets Infi, with a side order of Holy Water.
You can tell the hat is diabolical because it suggests a Happy Hour without alcohol.

Notice how she keeps ostentatiously calling him "son?" This is a legitimate problem in my and many other households, especially with the boys. I hate the cartoon style and the stupid tagline as much as the next person, but I ain't gonna lie... the feature that they're promoting is one that would make me choose their product (if I didn't already use it.)

They have a unique marketing problem. The problem they solve cannot possibly be described in detail by human beings on national television.

Just like condom ads! Which, incidentally, would solve the problem at a much earlier stage as well.

I dunno, I think we've had some good ones.
Of course, I'm not their target market, having only very rarely been laissez faire about contraception. And embarrassed about those occasions.

I can't find a link, but they had two adverts with identical dialogue between male and female teenagers (16 is the legal age here).

It went something like this:
So, last night? Did you?
Yes
Did you use a condom?
No
I can't believe it, what are you going to do?

That's completely paraphrased, but you can see how the same words can be interpreted very differently for each conversation. The girl is in tears, the boy is celebrating, until his mates start shaking their heads.
