ALL commercials are too long and too often. I usually just record the shows that interest me (couldn't watch TV without my PVR) and skip through the many repetitive commercials. That stupid Progressive Ins ad, over, and over, and then there is that damn lizard trying to sell me Gieko ins!! Too much!! Heck, the commercials are so long they have to repeat half the episode just so you'll remember what you were watching.tboesche wrote:I have seen that commercial. I usually scream "Shut the expletive deleted up" when I see that!jbenat wrote:There is a Crossing Jordan promo, often repeated on one of the cable chanels, where a wet behind the ears, metro-male, detective type, refers to a bad guy as "one of those Don't Tread On Me, 2nd ammendment types". Since I'm one of those types I guess they don't want me watching that silly, overly dramatic, product of a drugged, Hollywierd, liberal mind!
Plus that channel's commercials for its own shows are generally way too long!
And, while I'm in complaining mode, I hate loud background music played over someone speaking in a very moderated voice. Loud horns, drums banging, and symbols clashing loudly to dramatize plot! You have to turn up the volume to hear the speakers and then the music knocks you out of your chair! Don't get me started!!
