We don't need a movie, but even if we did, we won't be hiring these two guys to do the job. During our practice as videologists, we've seen all kinds of bad editing jobs, but this video ad tops them all. Or maybe Fred and Sharon intentionally made their 'commercial' to look so bad just to generate some viral buzz and sell more crappy videos on their web site. What do you think?

2. That's a little piece of Americana talking right there!
I think I would get hire them just to have a piece of that. It's funny but it's the best at the same time!

6. Don't agree. The worst commercial(s) ever are those about that headache remedy, "apply directly to the forehead" medication. I hate that thing and have it ingrained that I will NEVER buy that product.
Followed closely by anything that is hawked on TV by that Billy Mays idiot. So irritating.

7. That was by far one of the worst commercials I've ever seen in my life. I'll bet that their internet business is actually doing WORSE since the inception of this video.

8. Are they serious?! Trust me, it was not just poorly made to get hits on their site. If it was, their site would have better videos on it! These two seem like they took a class at the library and quit after the lunch break on the first day.

12. That truly sucks but I've seen expensive national commercials that were more annoying. It's a local yokel commercial and they are often poorly done on a limited budget. I bet nobody in their area who sees that commercial will forget their business but that's not necessarily a good thing in their case.
