Yes, Tivo is awesome, I rarely watch anything live, I record so I can just zip through all the commercials. I enjoy the shows so much more without all the long interruptions.

There's a couple of Ally Bank that are annoying. Like "job interview". Guy repeats the phrase a few times, and the interviewer mishears him in a ridiculous fashion at least twice.

The one with the Punk Rock band, isn't so bad: "You told me to write from the heart."/ "Yeah, don't do that."

It HAS to be, to justify the multi-millions they must be spending to show that same commercial 20 times an hour, around the clock.

I understand they're aiming at the holiday shoppers, I do!
But annoying the heck out of possible buyers is not a good plan, to my way of thinking.
oh god, you are so right!!!! Bosch must be betting the corporate farm on that stupid little piece of doo.

The NetFlix commercials on the radio have been doing this alot. B-T-B and on an almost hourly basis.

The Time-Warner Cable commercial is really irritating me. It's the one in which the four 'musicians' are playing the same lick over and over again, connected by the internet. No wonder the drummer tried to put something else in.

State Farm, I'm very glad I switched my insurance from them to USAA. I could not help watching those frequent commericals and thinking "I'm helping to support that by paying them an overpriced premium."
