Do You Actually Watch Commericals?

[darkshadow0001]

I watch some of them. Some of the commercials are just plain stupid... but they are funny to watch Actually some of the commercials that come out through out the year are better then what the Superbowl have been producting lately.

Some of them, but I guess my brain tends to filter them out, since they're generally quickly forgotten.

I DVR everything, so never have to watch them.

However, occasionally there is a really good commercial that I actually like watching (the GEICO ads come immediately to mind), and I will watch those...although my new favorite is the Kevin Bacon superfan commercial - that ad is hilarious!

But seriously - the GEICO ads are often better than the actual shows!

I channel surf during ad breaks.

I usually watch them. I actually think it helps pace shows out better to have the breaks. And many are entertaining.

I only (intentionally) watch ads from the 60's/70's on YouTube for the nostalgia factor. I mainly mute the tv during commercial breaks because they pump the volume up so frakkin' loud

Usually, I like to see what audience the commercials are targeting. Cat food, stain removal, washing clothes, air fresheners, young kids toys = women. Ford F-150, beer = men

Jack in the Box restaraunts are usually pretty good.
I really like the Microsoft BING search engine ones where someone asks a question and everyone around them just starts quoting search results
There are many others I can't think about right now

I usually have my book near by so once a commercial comes on I start reading until my show starts again.
