"Unskippable" Geico Ad

AeroMechanical says...

Hm, well, it's a minute long.

I'm hoping they figure commercials on TV out one day. Originally Hulu would play one 15 or 30 second commercial at the point where a normal broadcast television show would have 2+ minutes of commercials.

I don't watch live TV because of the commercials. When I have to, I go off and do something else, check my phone, flip to TCM (no commercials) or do anything but watch the commercials. If nothing else, I just zone them out and think about other things.

A single 30 second commercial break is too short to bother forwarding through, getting up, or otherwise diverting my attention. I actually watched the commercials, and I didn't even mind, really. You would think that would make the commercial time much more valuable, but I guess that isn't the case because the last time I watched Hulu it had almost as many ads as normal television.

I try to stay positive about the human race, but I fear that the majority of people actually sit there paying attention all throughout the stupid long commercial breaks on TV.

Wow, almost 11 minutes before the first commercial break?!? Why, that's unheard of in modern broadcast television... (Too bad, too... I'd probably watch more if not for the incessant commercials...)

Fox News Subliminal Opening

kulpims says...

what are you talking about? this was Fox 5 News on WNYW, channel 5 owned by FOX. how is that "loosely affiliated"? can't see why you're defending these assholes

>> ^Aemaeth:
Ok, hang on. This isn't Fox News. This is Fox 5 News. It's a local news show in New York. This is not off the Fox News channel, it's only loosely affiliated. The Fox channel that is on broadcast television is not known for having the conservative/republican message of Fox News cable channel and is best known for having television shows of questionable moral content (see Temptation Island).
I will admit, it seems like a questionable intro (maybe they were going to feature a story about McCain early on, so I can't say it's even taken in context) but let's give credit where credit is due.
