    I hate that Sonic commercial with those two idiots in the car. I have to hit mute every time it comes on or I'll go nuts.

    i have to keep mute on almost all the time to watch tv at all. that's one reason i don't own one. it isn't the commercials, you KNOW what THEY are.
    its how the actual programing implies between the lines what the corporate ubermench wants you to think is how everyone thinks,
    that actually gets a lot of people thinking in totally fucked up ways.
    (and that's no april fools, just the fools who buy into it)

    To me the pharmaceutical commercials are some of the worst. It's like "WHAT THE FUCK AM I WATCHING HERE??"

    Or what condition does it even treat? They tell you all about the disfiguring side effects and strong suicidal thoughts and such, but is curing a rash really worth all that?

    This one creeped me out while I was watching Person of Interest

    it's not just that one sonic commercial; there's like 30 of them.

    pharmaceutical commercials are kind of funny. in a 30 second commercial, they have time to come on and say "ask your doctor about drug x," and then they have to spend the next 29 seconds in speed-reader voice listing all the potential side effects.

    every commercial about not smoking is the worst commercial ever.

    that person is way more annoying than any commercial. great, you get to watch half of two shows, that's so much better...

    it doesn't really work anyway, since most of the channels time their commercials to happen at about the same time.

    Agreed.

    To echo PR, I hate pharmaceutical commercials. Everything about them is absurd.

    Yes, that's me. I multitask.

    The only TV I watch is Turner Classic Movies, the news, PBS, and sometimes The History Channel.

    TCM never has commercials, for the news I watch the first 5 to 10 minutes of CBS national, sometimes I'll flip between MSNBC and CNN and PBS for Antique Roadshow. That's about it so commercials are easy to avoid.
    I usually record anything else and just zip through the commercials, if I can find anything to record. I was watching The Real McCoys for awhile, and of course I tune in for the Lone Ranger, but those commercials are very short.

    Perhaps for some but I suspect Robin would appreciate the humor

    I don't watch TV. I just stream it online. So, I haven't watched a commercial for years. Mostly, it's ads now. And most of the time I can get those off too, with AdBlock. Anyways, I was always terrified of any after school special. For example, the anti-meth ones. Gosh damn, those were sad, scary, and just mindblogging. But, I never thought they were dumb. I guess a dumb one would be "Head on apply directly to the forehead". When I first watched it I remember putting my hand on my forehead and shaking my head. It was so stupid. I bet the thing works, but because the commercial was so stupid I would never buy it.
