If it were not for the Science Channel & National Geographic, Discovery & Speed Channel I would eliminate my TV.

I love the shows, How it's Made, Dirty Jobs & Myth Busters. Except for the local weather I amost never watch the networks.

I recorded "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" from AMC a couple of months back and just got around to watching it last week. AMC runs commercials during their movies, and without exaggeration I'd say that 1 in 4 of the commercials throughout the movie were either that extenze stuff or the trojan vibrator. The sheer saturation of these two commercials was ludicrous!

Did they get rid of "Bob"?

I seem to recall there being a court order at one point halting the sale of that stuff.

everytime the commercial comes on, i want to kick BOB's arse. apparently he is hung like a horse, and could probably wipe the floor with my pasty skinned body. probably a good thing i cant jump into a TV to pick a fight.

plenty of penis supplements commercials on outdoor/sportsman channels. i think outdoorsy guys have small peckers?

They are all BS, those adds don't belong on TV and the only reason they are there is because of a whole bunch of idiots who will buy anything.

Listen, this isn't the lifted F250 Ford with 36" tires and a big chrome rollbar forum.

That's your ExtenZe demographic.

Not us.

It makes me feel sad for all the people that need that stuff.

I don't have any issues in that area.


That ought to bring out the flamers (pardon the pun)......

My wife and I were watching one the other night and the gal says she loves so and so product on her man because it fills her up, stretches her out, and gives her that amazing full feeling. Or something along those lines. We looked at each other and both said at the same time, did we really hear that?
