TV Ads
I don't know about you, but I'm getting more than a little fed up with all the depressing ads on telly now.Night after night, every 15 mins or so, all I see is cancer ads, strokes, constipation, flu, lung cancer, etc.
I know we need to be aware of these things, but I find it more than a little depressing when it is repeatedly rammed down my throat over and over.
Does anyone recall any ads they used to enjoy and laugh at from yester- year?

Aye Me too,what happened to all the great jingles that used to be on..'You'll wonder where the yellow went when You brush Your teeth with pepsodent'..or 'Do the shake n vac and put the freshness back' ;~)....Who decides on which health warnings to show?.. Maybe it's a Government ploy to drive all of Us old codgers into a deep depression in the hope We'll commit hari kari and so save Them money,lol.

You could have a point there.Too many public service announcements and charity ads. I also don't think there's the inventiveness, is that a word, anymore where you can have a laugh and still get the message.
