How I Feel about the Super Bowl

Hooray. He's kicked the ball. Now the ball's over there. That man has it now. That's an interesting development.

I must be the only one in the nation that doesn't go ga-ga for Superbowl ads. I would have to be held hostage for a year to regress to a point where I would find TV commercials interesting. TV and pop culture is nothing but disposable retreads, but people keep chasing that first high. Gotta keep "pushing the envelope" with high production values, shock value, celebrity cameos, and everything else you learn in Publicity Stunts 101.

Mostly I agree, but superbowl adds are the highest production valued media available, so they SHOULD (not are) be better than most. At least that's how I see it. If 30 seconds costs them (estimating) $5million, you would think they'll put at least 1/2 that into making the spot. Even the most expensive blockbuster movies don't throw that kind of money per minute at the screen, so I watch them assuming someone will have spent that money well. Sometimes I am disappointed, like with most of the superbowl commercials this year. Where did all that money go? Not to writers, I hope (although I did love the snickers commercial).
