Genghis Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 I watched live tv for the first time in a few years today. The most obvious thing I noticed was how bland and sterile the adverts are now. Some of it is probably due to political correctness, but some of it is probably that most people have the ability to fast forward through ads now. Here's my favourite advert. Back when companies used to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the advert well, but the first carpenters song was played at my mums funeral. They don’t make them adverts like they used to!
