I saw the starburst one on Adultswim constantly. Its freaken annoying, and I don't get the point. Other then its stupid, maybe thats the point.

I am watching less and less TV because most of it is just dumb.

Have no clue. I'm one of those who are proud to say I watch very little, if any TV.

If you hate commercials, get Tivo or buy a recorder.

No commercials in my life - DVR and skip 'em, change the channel, mute the noise. But no commercials. Hate them.

the starburst one always makes me laugh, but there is way to much crap on t.v these days.
It seems like its all about the money

The ads are successful, otherwise they'd be quickly pulled.

Therefore, the majority of the audience will respond to such commercials.

Therefore, what can you conclude of the average person who watches TV?

E55, you know you want one!

You'll only see that commercial on FOX . . . guess why.

Actually, you're not watching a commercial. These 8 second spots are the program, sandwiched in between the real commercials. The series follows Oleg, the taxi driver, through his shift. In a very clever way, it's designed to get more eyeballs to watch the commercials that are on either side of the Oleg clip.

There is this commercial on the Radio (TV too, I think), that starts with a song with the lyrics "Like the Pine trees lining the winding road...I've got it made...I've got it made" wtf is that supposed to mean?!? I think it is a bank commercial.

Reminds me of the Blue Bell Ice cream commercial, touting the good ole days and how their vanilla ice cream is like the good ole day. - Well...one day I checked out a tub of their old fashioned vanilla - on the lid was printed "artificial flavor". So much for old fashioned good ole days.
