I just have to get this out of my system. How many of you have seen this ad and thought, why can't all the other commercials, many of which suck so profoundly, be this silly/memorable/etc.? I don't want to go overboard, but I think it's an award shy of brilliant.

We sit thru and are exposed to so many mindless, insulting, textbook brown-paper-bag make-you-wanna-vomit ads, (or buy an older TiVo with the commercial skip, or just buy this puppy)....Ugh!

Am I the only one?

I realize. Too much TV. I hear ya.

It's just that some of it, or I guess a lot of it, both the ads and some of the programs, are so insulting to our intelligence....it's ridiculous. Who is their target market? A bunch of mindless automatons?

Alright, I'll go get a TiVo or something. I just can't read with my (undiagnosed) adult ADD.

I started a thread about a dumb commercial in another area & realized this kind of thing may belong here in Tilted Entertainment. Mods! Help me find the right area, or I'm Doomed! (doomed!).

Talk to me, Goose.

It's also in QT, and if these links break, it's from this page, and 2.

Can you hear it? It's like when you put your head to the grass and you can hear the growin' and you can hear the insects. Do you like Beethoven ?
