Yes, I know what you mean at the very minimum the commercials are insulting to your intelligence, at very most they are way out there, and ridiculous. I still watch tv, though, a Tivo, would certainly be worth its weight in gold in our house,unfortunate finances are sressed and can't get one, so, I try to ignore, all the hype, lies, from the advertisers. Just being aware that theeir ads are false, and phony help me to make fun of it during the program. Maybe one day interactive commercials, I'd like to give them just a small piece of my mind, it wouldn't be that far of a stretch, that's fer sure.
