The Astelin commercial is driving me up the wall and and back again. If you haven't seen it, it features a barbershop-quartet-like group of guys 'serenading' some female allergy sufferer. I think Hell keeps the song on tap, because after the first few times, it becomes torture. The worst part is that it sticks with you, which makes it one step worse than the "Head On" commercials--I've discovered the song ambushing me at inopportune times, like when I'm trying to get to sleep, or waking up and trying to get to sleep again, and Not. Going. Away. If my allergies were severe enough to warrant a prescription, I'd make a point of avoiding Astelin if at all possible, on princple of excessive annoying commercial abuse.
Also, I don't see why the woman in the commercial is excited to see them. The first thing they do when they arrive is wave flowers and shit in her face, which only aggravates her allergies. If I were her, I'd drive them off with a broom.
