I love that one that used to be on where theres a lady whos daughter has just had a baby and she cries every time she packs something for it and her husband always rolls his eyes, then they go on a plane to see her and he cries when he holds the baby and the husband laughs.

I love the telecom ones too.]]> Thu, 07 Dec 2006 16:43:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4731&PID=92476&title=ot-commercials-that-make-you-cry#92476 <![CDATA[OT - Commercials that make you cry! : FINALLY saw the Telecom one with...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4731&PID=92306&title=ot-commercials-that-make-you-cry#92306 Author: jax

I love the new telecom adds too - they get to me each time. I cry at most things though!

I fond that deodarant add hilarious - I still laugh when I see it!

And i love that holiday road toll add - we have the song in our collection, it is up there with the "I hurt myslef today' remake by Johnny Cash, and the one they play a lot on Without a Trace.

I also hate the Sureslim adverts -- they make me SO mad! I look at my daughter and think, "Are there people out there who are wondering if their unborn babies will have weight problems?" Because to me, those ads are telling you to not only watch your weight, but to worry about your kids' weight when they're babies as well! Don't our girls have enough body issues already???

Okay, this is totally OT, but you know the Telecom Keep in Touch commercial where the mum is on saying she hasn't seen her parents in 10 years, and they've never met her son, and someday they'll get home to Samoa to see them...

Well, it was just on TV, and I swear, every damn time it's on, I get all weepy when the family comes out at the end and they're all hugging. Is is mummy hormones? (No, I'm not pregnant!) Damn Telecom!!!!!!!!
