I hate tv commercials.

Are they really necessary???

Ruins a tv show when you are right into a good story

Some are cute some are annoying ....why does TV have so dam complicated

I just remembered they have a on/off button

I hate them when watching a TV movie.

I hate them when I'm really into a program,
but I do like those shows about commercials from around the world.
One in particular about Supa Glue and some Nuns having to repair the statue of David.

yeah, I hate them when i'm really into something i'm watching but sometimes i need that pee break or get something out of the oven!!!

One more thing, sorry if I'm going on here,
I hate it when my husband flicks through the channels when a commercial is on that pisses me off even more than the actual commercial interrupting the shows.

I can deal with, ya kinda have to, though I HATE the ones that turn up the volume to a ear shattering level.

I wouldn't mind the music channels but he goes to the sports channels and we always miss bits of the movie because of that.
Sometime I hide the remove just to avoid this happening

I hate when they put pictures or words in the corner of a tv program. Like when I watch heros and they have the cast of Trauma dancing around in the bottom conner. Then 5 minutes later they have watch the summer olympics at the bottom of the screen. Ummm thats what commercials are for.

ESP. during baseball season! She tries to watch as many games as possible!

I hate the weather channel every commercial mom flips it to it and gives a weather report even if ur in the same room drives me insane and its annoying as hell we even gotten into fights about it I tell her I have weather on my phone and its up to date, I check it once a day tops she addicted to it.

I love commercials.

Advertising as a whole is one of the worst things about this planet. EVERYTHING has a price tag.

Like Bill Hicks once said "We live on the third mall from the sun right now."

We slave our whole lives making useless shit 4 our corperate masters so that everyday we can be told by adverts how worthless our lives are if we don't spend the money we just made from making useless shit on buying the useless shit we just made in the first place.

Adverts are one of the main reasons I don't watch television anymore. Well, adverts and X-Factor.

Don't know,,,,I switch the channel before I decide whether I hate/love them

There are too many and they make them louder than the programme. Here in NZ we have 4.5 minutes of ads every 12 minutes and they usally put them on only 3 minutes into a programme, they are usually the same ones repeated over and over. The worst are infomercials and 0800 buy junk ones (One was a polystyrene block used for sticking flowers into called a Florazanne) that charge like $49 for it and $15 postage and packaging, you get the idea, and those stupid abflex, ab mchines anything showing fatass people trying 2 exercise and the people selling it are liked toned skinny bodies in the peak of health. Then theres the half hour infomercials on at non primetime periods, most are American and its annoying. Here our television is about 40% American, 30% British and the rest a mix of local and Australian content.
What I don't like either, is every ad break between 5pm and 10pm is at least one for McDonalds/Pizza Hut/KFC/BurgerKing/Wendys or Dominos, and they always have close ups of the mouthwatering item on display
