Oh, the commercials you'll watch! 

Coming on the heels, or possibly heel, of last Sundays Commercial Watch announcement, I have discovered another innovative commercial. Seems like all the innovators get their commercials in during Desperate Houswives.

Okay, this one's an ad for Target and Tylenol. This metal guitarist is rocking out, and he smashes his guitar on the floor to break it. But NO! it bounces up and hits him in the head. Then he smiles at the Target dog who is standing by a box of Tylenol.

Now, even though Target is one of my top 100 sworn enemies, I have to give them credit where it's due.

And then, there are the Hungry Man commercials. Sure, everyone likes to have two types of beef and a side of mashed potatoes once in a while, but it's hardly the kind of thing a person wants every day. I really don't see the strategy in belittling any food with a touch of class, or a quality beyond standard cookout food. I mean, this is an era of metrosexuals, when a man will gladly spend $70 on a haircut if he's sure he won't develop any split ends. Or are these ads more of a reactionary statement, saying, "Look, we know where it's at. Fuck you girly men. Now to ride our Harleys into the sunset!" I guess that makes sense.
