The Joys of RTV Commercials

[DiscoLoveGrapes]

Ah, Saturday Morning cartoons. It's cold out, there's laundry and cleaning to do, so let's turn on the Archies. There's another cartoon next, but first a commercial*DO YOU OR SOMEONE YOU LOVE HAVE A TRANSVAGINAL MESH?!??*

The Monkees would have never done this to me...

 

[jorgek]

GritTV is just as annoying with DO YOU OR SOMEONE YOU LOVE HAVE MESOTHELIOMA.

 

[N5XZS]

What are they thinking? Bunch of idiots putting dumb ads on kid's TV hours!

 

[Cosmo Blatz]

Why won't sharks attack lawyers?

Professional courtesy.

What's wrong with lawyer jokes?

Lawyers don't think they're funny, and nobody else thinks they're jokes.

or on MeTV/AntennaTV the 4 minute "ASPCA Animal commercials" or the "starving children in Africa" ones

That´s a commercial you don´t want to see during kid´s shows. I´d rather they air twice the juice maker commercials than that one you mention

Guess all they care is who pays the most, for the commercials.

My favorite is th dump cake cookbook. Why isn't their bed bugs at lawyer's house they both suck the life out of everybody.

or they are just "public domain" (probably not the right word) commercials

That Clear TV antenna commercial is annoying to me. The guy comes across as a phoney
huckster. While out in a boat he states, "even out here the picture is clear." If you read the small print while he's saying this, it says, "simulated TV image."
I also can't figure out for the life of my why that lady in the kitchen (with this antenna) is laughing while watching something VERY unfunny.

Likely there's a bit of "Per-Inquiry" Advertising. The stations run the ads, the stations then get a cut if there's a response.

So if any of those 7 year olds stumbling across the Archie and She-Ra cartoons calls because they have Mesothelioma, the network gets paid.

I'm tired of the stupid foot callus shaver commercials. How disgusting can they get?

I agree with you, but I think the foot callus remover commercials are better than the skin tag remover commercials...

 

[Radioguy41]

or the one for shingles where they actually show the shingles. Ugh!

Yikes, I guess that´s even worse than the others.
