Agreed... and to drive you and I both nuts...
Yeah, I'm not clicking on that!
I looked- the guy is Crown, from the hip-hop group Crown and the M.O.B.
Still no love, still no joy.

I too despise all advertisements, as they have all provided zero purchase`s influence (less cool attractive toys advertised on TV as a child), or value to me and are have been a unwelcome distraction/interference in any media that I`m involved with for most of my adult life.
Yeah, call me a ardent media freeloader, if you wish, and I`ll gladly agree !
You ardent media freeloader!

BK commercials. They keep reminding me of how I let myself be suckered back and leaving disappointed every single time. Those ozempic commercials with the ear warm jingles/ tunes where I find myself unexpectedly singing them out loud like some nut. Have been asking the queen to cut the cable for some time, since it seems that because of the commercials, I find myself watching three to four programs while desperately evading commercials. Watching some and never all of the programs. Missed the punch line of a Perry Mason recently where he was to cross examine a parrot (voiced by Mel Blanc). Because of commercials.
The worn button on my remote is a statement of how I feel about commercials. On certain channels I will mute it and hit the guide button so I dont have to see them if I'm not leaving the room. When the screensaver kicks on after 5 minutes I know its safe to go back to watching.
Like LHorn, our mute button is the most used, by a good margin. As commercial-time increases, we watch increaingly less TV.
Anyone remember a commercial, from about 1967, where a woman clutches a bottle and loudly gushes: " I'm in love ... with my toilet bowl cleaner!" I sh!t you not. I recorded it as an intro for one of my RTR compilations. It got my friends' attention.

I haven't watched much actual TV in a few years now and partly because of commercials. I find that products that are really pushed hard are garbage. I frequent the Dunks near me and drunken radio with its 2 too happy spokes puppets pushing the shaken espresso late. It's obviously 90% sugar and looks just gross. Hardly ever does anyone order it and at least 3 people who did demanded their money back.

That, and the dumbing down of programs I was starting to notice, and this decided my turning my back on all types of commercial TV in 2010 and I then started buying whole sale level quantities first at Best Buy, Wall Mart (now Amazon) for the creation of physically owning optical media large personal library (DVD/BR/ already existing over 100 laser discs from the nineties) for my evening`s TV viewing enjoyment.
The only outside sourced video that I occasionally view is some short humorous or informational YouTube clips when I can`t find any new posts on A/K that interest me.
Disappointed in bankruptcy commercials? That's a new one.
I've never been through one, so I don't have the repetitiveness to which you allude.
(all tongue in cheek)
Hope they read the fine print.
