Commercials I Hate: Life Alert

[ninendowii2000]

and it really sucks when they air a movie like twister, on tbs or some channel that commercails always air on , cause when they were going in the fucking tv just cut it off , the part where they ran into the house come back they were already out of the house , how fucked up is that .

[ninendowii2000]

it is a rip off, 1 they air hundreds of commercials , 2 this one dont even tell you "{battery will go dead so when you fall your battery may be dead this thing is useless) and 3 why should we have to pay if they gonna have commercials ! i thought the commcercails were a way they can pay for services because thier getting paid by the advertiser of the products that they sell,

but no we still pay but i wonder what we miss when the commercials air, seriously ,

[DWcriticism]

Its a total fucking rip off...The big Tv companies sell space for commercials and the fucking cable companies charge us to watch them how fucked is that...Plus you can only watch any show for no longer then 10 minutes then they stick in 15 minutes of commercial...Now what there pulling off is while you watch your 10 minutes there sticking small commercial it the lower corners...over all us people who pay our Tv bill is getting fucking riped off and it will get worse..

[jingacoo]

Life Alert App!

[Manafichu]

It's -6 degrees in Chicago, so LET'S DO THIS!

And when the girl got interupted!

[Rick1885]

I hate the stupid girly ads.

[someonestolemynhame]

@Rick1885 What girly ad?

[Fabrysiheder]

I can masturbate, I need help XD

[150grnballistictip]

I guess nobody thought of a cell phone! What about life alert for all the people they run off the road in their Lincoln.

[sackboyplatinum]

its kinda stupid bcuz when the old lady is is having the heart attack she would most likely panic therefore forgetting about the life alert XD

[samrych97]

OMG I FREAKING LOVE OLD PEOPLE COMMERCIALS!!

[zacharybaringer]

you cant press the button when in a heart attack but then you cant talk

[Pollix780]

Hate? How could people hate this commercial? I lol everytime it's on. "If you've had a heart attack like *I* did, and no one was there, Life Alert was there for me" omg, funny as heck!

[XDaggersticko2]

I hate these commercials that tell you to buy shit

[lolbobs]

@XDaggersticko2

I dont think you understand the point of a commercial.

[crazykrazyqrazy]

Actually, the Life Alert call center looks more like it's stuck in 1989.

[a10fjet]

THIS is why our economy is in the trash, keeping all the old farts alive... And they look miserable. I hope someone kills me if i ever get like that.

[cruelconvictions]

I had a heart attack and nonone was there. LifeAlert was there for me. She had great tits.

[OmgCameronWasHere]

the woman at 2:01 looks exactly like an english teacher who used to work at my school. i swear its her. and she wrote a book about her cats...FREAKY.

[vau0807]

LOL! CIH, you are my kind of smartass.

[gcj4201987]

why did you stop posting more of these? I'm sure you have a life outside of this, but there is so much fodder on late night television, or regular television too. You should make more these are great.

[hoyboy19]

the old hag on 0:24 seems a bit cocky

[Tssheer]

Wow you're really reaching on this one.

The commercial showed a good product. And you just threw a bunch of cheap shots.

I hate commercials, but if i was old i'd totally buy this product.

There are far worse commercials out there and you used this one?

[MasterMik332]

ITS A HAT LMFAO

[CommandoDude]

...Lol and I just thought retirement homes were those places elderly went to so that they could have people to talk to.

[RobbytheLion]

I love this commercial! It's on my list of favorites right next to the kinder-egg man.

[Renaix315]

lol I always thought that lady had a bit of an attitude tone too

[kyleredwards]

thats chicago

[Shack11]

Why must our city(and the surrounding area) constantly get colder than Alaska?

DANGIT, GLOBAL WARMING, ONLY BRING HEAT WHEN YOU HAVE ENOUGH FOR EVERYONE D:

[uut0]

wtf the 1st woman how can she press that button when she has a heart attack?

[typhlosion96]

lol i'd get just because i have no friends! lol

[0mikr0n]

A GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO LIVING IN A RETIREMENT HOME!

o hay i dieing, i r be sav'd by teh neckalce

[cartoonfan1920s]

I have a tape I recorded off of GTN (formerly PAX) in 2008, and the lifealert office had 1981 IBM PCs! Talk about retro!

[toba122]

"its a hat." lol

[therealmetroidmaniac]

because of life alert, I am now absolutely alone with no friends.

[u2snumberonefan]

awesome!

[prolefeedprocessor]

marry me, nathan alexander

[sillybuttons44]

Rofl @ 2:34

[r35boy]

i was born in 95 and that does look like computers from 90's

[steinadler47]

AHHH! Old People!!

[anus544]

1:30

is it me or this lady giving me an attitude

1:41

Do you see her eyes move at all ?

[wolfprophet3]

that dude looks like abe lincon

[abelincoln1809]

If you mean the guy at the end, that's what I thought, too

[flameraven42]

Or.... you could buy a cell phone and keep it on you at all times. Which would possibly be cheaper than this cheesy thing. :O!

[fresapaletosa]

life  alert saved my life

lol im jk'ing

[hidetolove]

this really cracked me up. My sister lives in Chicago so I heard about the terrible weather, Sorry!

I always liked how wooden and inexpressive the infomercial actors are. Brings a tear to my eye.

[Th3UnionFor3v3r]

The help center guys look like they're from the 70s not 1994.

[mista123420]

in the life alert commercial i saw the guy sees intruders in the house, and he says ''' this is life alert! you have been detected!! ''  then u c the bad guys run away lol

[BagOfMagicFood]

The review was funny at first, but then it turned into making fun of old people for being old.

[clarkbell]

This is not stuck in 1994, just a cheesy commercial. They had better commercials back then. Life Alert was founded in 1987 too.

[MoochyMooch]

Is it just me or did it look like the second testimonial woman was talking out of one side of her mouth? She was probably a stroke victim. And that first woman DID sound like she had an attitude.

"If it weren't for LifeAlert...(rolls her eyes)...I'd be DEAD! Do you hear me muthafuckas? DEAD!"

[Noromongrel]

She sounded pissed to me, like she was mad at no one being there for her. Maybe she's got a grudge with some relatives or something.

[sassyfoxx1]

how about the one with the video cameras inside your home? lol, yeah I'd buy that :>

[victshot]

Very annoying commercial.

[lolbobs]

The commercial wasn't all that bad, and you really didn't say why you hated it.

Other than the fact they shouldn't play this on Cartoon network and Adult Swim, (WRONG target audience) it isnt horribly annoying or cheap.

[commercialsihate]

Not cheap, you say! You're right, there is so much production value here. It must have cost them a fortune to travel back in time and find those computers and phones from the bronze age. The haggard looking old ladies are practically Meryl Streep. With such performances it's easy to overlook the amazing costumes.

LifeAlert probably rose Conrad Hall from the grave to shoot the thing it's so dang beautiful. The clever graphics and type design should win an award from ID magazine. You are so right.

[lolbobs]

Well yeah the technology is probably old, because they've probably been showing the same commercial since the 90's hah.

[clarkbell]

the 80's, not 90's, duh

[70s80s]

This shit is hye-fucking-larious! MORE PLEASE!!!! :D

[azureVinh]

FINALLY! I HATE THIS COMMERCIAL! At the end, it sounds as if a gun is being pointed to their heads and they're forced to read from a script!

[Freecell82]

The Enrichment Center reminds you that LifeAlert will never threaten to stab you and in fact cannot speak. In the event that LifeAlert does speak, the Enrichment Center urges you to disregard its advice.

[thenoodleminions]

That guys name is "Koop".(As in 'chicken coop', is the reference i'm attempting to make)

And this kinda traps you.

Kinda creepy, no?

Is this a cliche bad Youtube comment.

sorry.

[NegritaTanRica]

LOL@ the obvious caption "cannot reach a phone" ahahaha

And yes, she had an attitude. She's like really bitter when doing the "testimonial" hahaha

[ramon88us]

Good to see you're making videos again.
