I guess they have to pay the bills but these little interludes are so awkward and dated, they make me feel sorry for the actors who seem pained to have to say those corny lines.
My exact thoughts, word for word. I’m sure, you greet someone you barely know at the door with, “Oh, I don’t feel good today, I have cramps and bloating.” Doesn’t everyone do that? Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad if it were a different product but I just felt them both cringing inside as they said their lines.
I know we’ve kicked this topic around before but I’m afraid we’ll soon have 40 minutes of commercials with only 20 of program.
it told me there’s no way Abigail was pregnant, so thank God for small miracles. Guess Midol has become a sponsor, since this is not their first product placement ad on DOOL. But I agree in that if I were one of those actors, I would be gagging throughout my delivery of those lines. LOL!
mute the TV when most of the commercials are on. Except the one with the little girl’s dad who came from the military to her classroom; that one is really cute.
commercials are getting there, where they are longer than the programs. They never seemed to have so many loooong interruptions before. Is it my imagination?
