This is sort of the opposite of this thread, but there is a PSA that I absolutely love. The one for adoption / foster kids where a foster parent is sitting with her daughter consoling her after breaking up with her boyfriend. The Mom tries to help, and says get to take off his sweatshirt, take down his pictures and get rid of him. Then the daughter says, but you don't understand, he's tagged like 400 of my posts. The mom says I can cut out tags, and the daughter delivers the great line, "that's not how it works." It's perfect delivery, and I still crack up at just the deadpan and the cluelessness with good intentions. For a PSA, that's about the best I've seen in years.
I stopped listening to the radio broadcasts when it seemed that every commercial break had the Scientologists trying to exploit Covid.
I know a few of you here like to pick on me for my political ideas. So here is another chance. 2IPAs & I have some friends in DC who work for the Church of Scientology. The wife is in management for the church and the husband is a computer geek for the church. But these friends are really great and just like anyone else. We met at a microbrewery's beer dinner years ago. These friends don't wear their beliefs on their sleeves and like other religious folks, they are good natured and would do anything to help other people. So I don't quite understand what the comical criticism is about the Church of Scientology.
Leah Remini’s show on it had nothing comical about it and much that appeared disconcerting
What network was this show on ?
New from radio-land: how about that ad from PhRma that has been airing about 30,000 times during recent Nats radio broadcasts?
Right? Jeez. Because I'm a T1 diabetic, I'm sensitive about the price of insulin. Here's a graphical representation. BTW, no improvement in the performance or characteristics of the insulin charted (Humalog) since 1996 when it came out. It's continued at the same rate from 2017 to 2021.(Image removed from quote.)
what's the drug "Pharmabro" cornered and raised through the roof?
How much crack inspired this stupid "wet teddy bears" commercial from Liberty Mutual? Pretty sure the late Teri Schiavo had more going on upstairs than whoever finds that crap funny.It was an HIV drug. Thankfully, he's in prison for securities fraud. Hopefully someone's turning him into a human sock puppet.

I don't want to despise Lisa Loeb, but the Geico commercial I see at least 20 times/day is making it awful hard not to. Always hated that song. To have it crammed down my throat daily after 2 decades of peace from it is a kick in the nads.
On the flip side, the Apple iPad commercial with the Little Mermaid theme pretty much brings our house to a screeching halt when it airs.
Because all in the household throw bricks at the TV ?
No, kids grew up watching Disney.
