Poor Commercial Models! - Watch Banned TV Ads Here

Commercial models know that getting booked in a TV ad is not an easy thing to be achieved - it takes a lot of hardwork and hundreds of auditions, casting calls and call backs to actually land one.

And not every TV commercial will always be considered "airable". Despite the hilarity or the creativity put into a commercial ad, there are still guidelines to follow, which is the reason some TV ads get banned. And why some TV ad models don't get their desired exposure.

Here are some banned TV commercials as an example:

1. THIRSTY BABY WANTS A DRINK

In this video, a woman is struggling to push her baby out while in labor. Look at what the doctor did to lure the baby out of the womb:



Although this commercial is really funny, somehow it struck as degrading to some people. These commercial models did get some exposure as the video went viral in social networking sites and Youtube after it was banned. We wish we could have had a glimpse of the baby, though.


2. NIKE COMMERCIAL

In the USA, violence (such as killings) in TV ads are not allowed to be shown. Apparently this kick-ass commercial was banned because of a small scene at the end part where a samurai gets crushed by an elevator.


Wondering how much these soccer players were paid for doing this commercial? You're not the only one.


3. DADDY IS DEAD

In this funny commercial, a doctor zaps a fly using a paddle (which is used to "electrify" patients back to life) just when the patient's daughter and wife arrives in the room. 


 If this happened to you, what would be your reaction?


4. BLONDE ORDERING A BURGER

A blonde girl enters a library, probably very hungry. Would you think beauty trumps brains after watching this?


Perhaps this Mercedes Benz commercial was banned because it was being racist (because of the blonde joke). Nevertheless, it is funny.


5. ADAM and EVE

This commercial depicts the Biblical place of Eden, where mankind had supposedly originated. Eve explores Eden then suddenly bumps into Adam. You would never guess Adam's reaction.




What a shame these commercial models never got to see themselves on TV. But perhaps the people who banned these ads only wanted what's best for the mass audience.
