K-fee received a lot of complaints from their viewers, and soon after that, the ads stopped being aired on television. Some people say that on some other occasions, a warning message was displayed before the advert played, informing any young children, easily scared individuals, and people with heart or certain health conditions to not view the footage. However, this is unproven.

An episode of ''[[Wikipedia:The Tonight Show with Jay Leno|The Tonight Show with Jay Leno]]'', aired in April 2005, featured a segment where the audience and [[wikipedia:Jay Leno|Jay]] reacted to K-fee's ''Car'' commercial. It was hosted on K-fee's official website back from 2004 to 2007 along with the other adverts. The K-fee ''Car'' commercial was also featured in 2005 on ''[[wikipedia:...on Television|Tarrant on TV]]'', a famous British show, as well as on ''[[America's Funniest Home Videos]]''.

In December 2005, K-fee released new commercials for their line of Latte macchiato drinks that parodied their prank flash-style commercials. Using the footage from three of K-fee's most popular commercials (Auto, Beach, and Golf), the company replaced the zombie or gargoyle at the end of the ad with less-frightening characters, followed by the text "Jetzt auch mit weniger Koffein." (which translates as "Now also available with less caffeine") and a picture of a Latte Macchiato or Latte Macchiato Vanilla bottle. The Latte Macchiato commercials were only made in German and used the same soundtracks from the originals with a higher pitch. These ads were first aired on television on December 27th, 2005.

* '''Beach ''(Light)''''': A smiling teddy bear (possibly a hand puppet) appears instead of the gargoyle and giggles. The piano music in the background is higher pitched than in the original version. This spot advertises K-fee Latte Macchiato Classic.

* '''Auto ''(Light)''''': A man in a light polo shirt appears from the bottom instead of the zombie and softly says “Boo!” in an effeminate, almost teasing voice. Once again, the background music is higher-pitched, and the advertised product is K-fee Latte Macchiato Classic.

Between December 2006 and February 2009, K-fee released multiple picture-based advertisements in magazines presumably in Germany. Not much is known about these advertisements, such as what magazines they appeared in.

== K-fee Judas Vs Jesus The Last Supper 2000 Advert ==
In 2000, 4 years before the screamer ads were introduced, K-fee has made a commercial referencing religious history of Judas Vs Jesus, The Last Supper. This ad does not contain screamers. It was hard to find until a YouTube user named Fallout Fanatic 2007 The Vyonder found it on Dailymotion, downloaded it, and uploaded it to YouTube.
