I understand those annoying BK commercials are extremely inexpensive to
make. All it takes is
licensing a popular song, shooting footage of food being made and the rest
is all white text on a black screen...there are no actors in the
commercials, so no on-screen people have to get paid, and there's minimum,
if any, voiceovers.
The Gap commercials

Those are okay, and most of them have little or no music. Except for that
Khaki/Swing dancing commercial...that annoys me, especially that OVER OVER
OVERDONE super 90s cliche computer trick of freeze framing a scene and
having it revolve...ENOUGH ALREADY!
There. I said it.
