Good, Bad and Ugly Ads

Since I have not been given much of a life, I watch an awful lot of television, which includes an awful lot of commercials.  Now, a “GOOD” ad is one that holds my attention and makes me want to at least learn more about the product or service it is for.  A “BAD” ad is one that quickly becomes nothing more than background noise when it cannot be skipped over.  “UGLY” ads are much worse.  For not only do they make we want to never see them again, they make me want to never have anything to do with the company that paid for them to be produced.  Of course, you may feel differently, but I sure wouldn’t say much about it around anyone with a lick of sense.  For I am, after all, an expert on such things—albeit only in my own mind!

GOOD

BAD

UGLY

  2. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Karen!!! Every time I start giving Arlynda a hard time over how all of her plants die horribly lingering deaths, she reminds me of the fact that she feeds me, too. It usually shuts me up pretty quick. Sigh.

  3. I liked the first one, don't mind the 3rd one & heard about 2 seconds of the second one before I stopped it, LOL.

  4. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Angelika!!! I truly love the first one, and the last doesn't get real ugly until the final shot, which has made me recoil from the television (which is clear across the room, mind you) every time it has came on.

  7. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Lee!!! Well, at the risk of really ticking you off this time, you missed that I was bemoaning Peter's mother giving her that name--not saying anything disparaging about Peter herself. Have you ever heard Johnny Cash's A Boy Named Sue?

  9. I must say you are great out of squeezing interesting blogs from the most unlikely of sources. This was a fun read.

  10. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Stephen!!! Be assured that I have a lot of help (naturally-speaking, of course).

  11. Of course, I've heard of "A Boy Named Sue", Jerry...I doubt there would be many of my vintage who hasn't.

    By the way, I did mean to tell you that Peter called one of her daughters Michael; but then you may recall US actress, Michael Learned played the mother. "Olivia Walton" in the "The Waltons"...so that's not so strange a name for a girl, apparently.

  12. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Lee!!! There is also a stunningly beautiful actress by name of Michael Michele. Maybe it is a Hollywood thing? Anyway, I am really glad Peter did not suffer any ill effects. Be assured that it took me a long time before I could laugh at being called Butterball. Hey, I even had some teachers who tried to pronounce my last name that way!

    Oh, and I used to joke that Sherry must really love me. For she traded in Lee for Beuterbaugh, and she learned how to spell it by singing the Mickey Mouse theme (B.E.U...T.E.R...B.A.U.G.H.) After she ran me off, it stopped being funny. Sigh.

Since the Blogger spam filter has been found sorely lacking lately, I will start moderating comments. Be assured that I am only interested in deleting spam. So, if you feel a need to take me to task over something—even anonymously, go ahead and let 'er rip, and I will publish it as soon as I can.
