TV Ads

Do you guys watch TV ads? Or are you one of them who flip the channels once it's a commercial break

Every time I'm watching TV at a friend's house ... they always seem to start flipping the channels once the commercial breaks hit. I personal love watching TV ads.

i don't find the commericals in Canada as entertaining as ones from other countries .. esp. the Tim Hortons ones , they annoy me for some reason .. like those roll up the rim ones

tv commercials are funny, i find them amusing coz adds these days are not only selling you a product but are also selling you an identity. so i just like to sit there and basically critic ads and their tactics.

at my friends house, they dont have cable so i watched 83905673052 ctv ads today, and theyre all for upcoming shows. They play the same commercials EVERY commercial break, I was gonna kill somebody.

In other words, hell ya i change it, if i watch tv.

Commercials we see in Canada are very lack of creativities but some are still worth watching.

if im watching a tv show that im there to watch(say 24, alias etc) then no.
if im being bored and not watching anything in general(ie watching spike or discovery) then yes.

Thats because everything "offends" someone here. TV ads arent allowed to be creative.

Generally YES but once in a while you get the really annoying ones...and if you're watching a show when you have a commercial break every 5 minutes that gets on my nerves too - especially if it's the same ads over and over...but generally the answer is yes

I rarely ever watch commercials. Usually i'll flip the channel or do something while I'm waiting for the program to return.
