What’s NOT on TV?

Be honest, we all like a bit of tongue-in-cheek humour ;-) – so today let’s take a look at some of the things I’d put into that category. They come in the form of 5 banned TV commercials!

After coming across these, I started to wonder what kind of individual sat in a room thinking of such “out-there” idea’s and whether their aim when doing so was to get banned just so they could go viral because of all the talk that would follow…

…Whatever the reason, some of these commercials make me giggle & others make me gasp – and you?:

Product being advertised Sprite®
Problem: Sexually explicit –  just wrong.

Product being advertised: XBOX® 360
Problem: Violent much?

Product being advertised: Wrigley’s® X-Treme Mint Chewing Gum
Problem: Verging on scary & completely gross!

Product being advertised: KFC®
Problem: Racially stereotypical and therefore offensive…

Product being advertised: MasterCard®
Problem: All kinds of wrong!

Wow, I’m not surprised these were banned! I’d love to know what you think – Which one’s the worst?
