I am so sick of this guy and the company he represents!
 
I've noticed a trend over the past few years.
More and more companies are following the lead of the mega insurance giants.
Saturate the airwaves. Every type of business from Papa John's to Progressive.
 
Could they find a more dopey looking bunch of guys?
 
This guy is 'focused' on his fiend across the trailer.
 
 
 
Please Rob, just go away and take this whole campaign with you.  AngryAngry

This entire campaign should have been aborted in the concept stage!
"This guy is 'focused' on his fiend across the trailer." If that's a typo it's entirely forgivable. If it's an intentional "poke" at Donothan? Brilliant!LOL

Please, Chevy, take this stupid "real people...not actors...I meant actors" campaign and throw it all away...NOW! I am sick to death of this commercial and I will never buy a new Chevy if they keep airing this campaign.
Back after a long absence...still hating those commercials. Go away Limu Emu and Doug!

This new one is really rubbing me the wrong way.
 
Rob Benedict  (stillisadick) thinks he is some sort of big star like Regis Philbin.
 
"Is that your final answer?"  Goddamned, I hate these commercials.

I'm sick to death of hearing "You can only answer...in emojis." EVERY SINGLE COMMERCIAL BREAK HE'S ON!!! Either Emojis, or the idiots who don't know they're in the back of a trailer hauled by a Silverado. Take this campaign and shove it all up your rears, Chevy. DeadAngry

I had a slight moment of happiness, thinking they might be phasing out the big dickhead known as Rob.

He only speaks a few words, he has his trusty clipboard in hand.
Notice they are all wearing name tags. Also, the guy just got a 20% discount (the markup is probably higher) and he wants to drive his new car through the wall? 'Real idiots, Not customers'
 
Then I saw this one, I could not be more sick of a series of commercials. This loyal GM customer will never go back to them. All thanks to Chevy, their marketing department for taking on the Geico approach. And Rob Stillisadick.AngryAngryAngryAngry

The host isn't Rob Benedict. It's Potsch Boyd. Search the Chevy ads on iSpot and you'll see his name, not Rob's. Some hipster idiot who probably isn't older than 30.

Still sick of them. Why does Chevy think it's a successful ad campaign? Just...why?

Maybe he changed his name after all of the bad press these commercials have received.

The focus groups are ruining my Olympics viewing!! Here's a new one (I have no idea why it repeats twice, but OK...) that is too long for my tastes, which I've seen a couple times already during the Rio Olympics. I am so sick of these idiotic "actors" and their reactions to a frickin' car. Not to mention Potsch Boyd - "but that's not all!"

I miss the old days. When you actually saw a car driving on a "closed course" and heard a voiceover talking about the car's features. Not idiotic focus groups.

They keep recycling the same damn morons in these focus group ads.  I can't stand this wimp hipster d-bag, the people are just as annoying. 

The video above I saw all last week...the towering cars crap with the people apparently excited for some reason. 

So far the past 3, 4 days I keep seeing the one "we're going to reply with emjois" Fist bump and other crap. THIS is how the ad should be.

The one that kills me is where they show the Black Friday videos and then say, "You won't encounter this at Chevy" or something similar. 

The people in those videos aren't buying f*cking cars.  They are buying cheap TV's and fad toys.  

"Hmm, to avoid the crazed American consumers, I think i'll go drop $30k on a car."  

Stupid!  Hate this line of commercials.  "Real people, not actors"  Are actors not real people?

Good point about how stupid the "Real people. Not actors," spiel is that many commercials are using as a disclaimer, when it should be,"Actual customers, not actors."
Using nuclear weapons on problem people is not the answer, you psychopath!

Also, Keith Richards is a damn cockroach outliving everybody! LOL

Yes, that Black Friday ad is haunting our TVs as well. Do people actually find this funny and entertaining? Excuse me, not people, MILLENNIALS. I shut off all of these commercials because of that stupid Potsch Boyd! More importantly, those stupid people. 
Sometimes I feel like boycotting this despicable car company. I won't be surprised if Potsch gets some sidekick host, and maybe a talking car - then they can copy Progressive's Flo/Box/Jamie!

"Real people, not actors"  Are actors not real people?  
 
Technically, "No".
 
You basically have to sell your soul to perform in any of these commercials.
I think you have to have a soul to qualify for "real people" status.
 
...though not for stupid and moronic. 
That's pretty much an open-ended category that accepts all applicants.
