| 1358095 | 2013-10-27 23:02:00 | On Fair Go last week they spoke about what you thought was the best and worst commercial, which means that they realise that most people watch the commercials. I could not tell you which is the best and which is the worst as I do not watch the commercials. I think they are all the worst. I simply mute the sound and so don't have to put up with those condescending sounding sound tracks. Makes the commercials much more bearable. What do you do? Do you watch the commercials and so are able to put forward an opinion as to which are the best or worst? Or are you like me and detest the lot and so mute the soundtrack? What is your opinion on the commercials? |

| 1358098 | 2013-10-28 01:54:00 | Agree............BUT you must watch the commercials to know when to "demute" !!!!!! Of course. But they are much more bearable without the soundtrack. I think the soundtrack is insulting because they sound as though they are talking down to you. |

That ones not to bad, I notice they have edited it for most viewing, near the end they edited out the cow crapping its self as the chair flies over, :D The one thats the most annoying -- State Insurance, they have gone overboard with that tune now, (break my stride) was not to bad on the original ad last year. If they are going for "the most annoying" its working ;) |

| 1358101 | 2013-10-28 18:25:00 | We never watch live tv anymore here as we record everything on the htpc. Just skip past the ads when they come on. If we do want to watch something "live" we just wait about 10-15 mins then start watching, and skipping ads as before, and eventually catch up so finish watching at the normal time the show would finish. |

| 1358103 | 2013-10-28 20:26:00 | When watching a half hour programme you can expect something like ten minutes of adverts. I have long discovered the mute button on my remote control. | Bobh (5192) | ||
