TexasOma : Did you know several years ago Sonic pulled those ads with the guys and their sales took a huge hit? Crazy! I hate those commercials! But they apparently work! I watch a lot of the Hallmark channel and their commercials for their upcoming Hallmark movies are AWFUL! Same 3 commercials every commercial break. And they are the 30 second ones! My daughter mutes the tv lol. ðŸ‘ðŸ¼
@IzzysMommy : I watch the very old Perry Mason (and other really old TV) I have to have the noise, even if I am not totally watching the programs) The commercials are about 2 minutes long and they do them every 5 minutes. It's the Save the Children, Starving African Children, Support the ASPCA, St. Judes, Help I've Fallen and Can't Get Up, Buy a motorized stair chair, Step in bathtubs, and so many more.
There is also a "put this chemical on your face and look young - but fine print says the chemical wears off in just a few hours)- that is a 7 minute commercial - I've timed it!!!!!" I change the channel on that one if I don't have any fast forward left. And don't get me started on the Hammer & Hammer Jr. commercials - they wake me up with their screaming at the TV audience.
They make the commercials to tug at your heart strings so you will sign up and send money. But I record the Perry Masons on FETV and zip thru all the commercials. 4951
