Same Commercial, Two Different Channels

Anonymous032819 — Wed, 16 Dec 2020 23:26:06 GMT

I have been watching The Weather Channel when they went to commercial.

It was the dreaded Joe Nameth one.

So I changed the channel to one of the news outlets.

I'll be dammed if they weren't playing the exact same commercial!

Argh!

Rant over.😊

I didn't ever think that any commercial could be as annoying as Maria Osmond and nutrition-system, but Joe Namath takes the cake!! It's the worst ever!!

It's funny, because this commercial was discussed here a month or 2 ago. I tend to tune commercials out (especially if the tv is on as background noise). Ever since the initial post, I started to notice how often that commercial is on. And it drives me crazy!

Tom Selleck and his reverse mortgage is getting its fair share of air time too. I really think it depends on the channel you are watching, you dont see many of these on regular network stations.

I guess if they get enough $, they don't care how they are perceived.

Yep, Joe Namath commercial is annoying. But I really dislike Motor commercial with half man/ half bike in it. What an obnoxious and condescending character he is!

I don't know the odds, but just seemed like a weird coincidence that two different channels were airing the same commercial at the same time.

Maybe some math wiz can figure it out.

Me too, keep wishing the thing would take off over the hill. Just a stupid ad . I'm not sure or can remember what they are advertising that's how impressed I am.

Then you haven't seen the girl sticking the thing up her nose, and holding a jug, and saying it will clean your sinus out if you squeeze and spray this water up your nose. Can't remember the name because I always look away. Sold at most drug stores. sickining.

I detest when "this is MY body of proof" commercials come on. As soon as I hear the first few notes of that stupid banjo or whatever it is music I hit that Mute button so fast.

Nivage.

It serves the same purpose as a Netti pot.

It is used to irrigate your sinuses.

Here's my great case for recording most of my TV programs. Fast forwarding is a wonderful thing.

I agree, the Joe Namath commercials are horrible.

A new one is on that grates. It's about Stitch comforters. The woman says the company has "me and my family's health" in mind. How can anyone take this seriously when a commercial intentionally uses improper grammar.

@grandma2pkmh I live in SC but our "local" stations are from GA (we live very close to the border), so we have to put up with those commercials, too. Frankly, I think all political ads and phone calls should be outlawed. I don't base my vote on a candidate's ads, and a phone call sure won't change my mind, either.

And if they can't outlaw them, then at least make it where each candidate is only allowed to talk about themselves and what they will do...and NOT allowed to even mention their opponents names or positions.!

@vermint Sorry you have to hear our mess. I totally agree with your opinion regarding the ads. Only talk about what you can/will do and leave the other person alone. I haven't answered my phone in 3 months, turned ringer off, goes straight to voice mail.

The Plexaderm commercial has my vote for the most obnoxious one of all time.
