What's more, they're a lot longer than 30 seconds. Almost no one buys
60s any more. (That being said, half the commercials on my reel are
60s, but I'm a relic:-).
I think the "political incorrectness" would pass muster for some
advertisiers. Have you seen the VW commercials that poke fun at a
woman for getting pregnant just so she could get a VW minivan? Or the
Burger King ad where the guy is infuriated because a fussy woman in a
car ahead in the drive through is asking for one little thing after
another? (He pushes the offending car out of the way, tires smoking).
Both are great ads, and they poke fun at females. And both get it done
in thirty seconds, which is quite an achievement. They're both from
the same ad agency: Crispin, Porter, Bogdonavich in Miami. A great
shop. Of course I'm not sure that either of these commercials run in
Canada.

Couple of great ads, but neither would ever make it to TV here in
North America. They're insufficiently Politically Correct.

Ok, i'm going against what seems to be a norm here, and say, i do
like
to watch TV.
HOWEVER, since the invention of reality, yuck, TV, and the
infomercial,, i find i am watching far less the past while.
I like GOOD sitcoms, those from the 50's and 60's, and to watch
hockey, baseball etc.
I DO find myself, as soon a a station break comes on, run the
gamat of
channels until the commercials are over.
If i want it i'l;l buy, dispite what Ed McMahon wants me to buy.:-)
