They have actually come out with a "my TV stinks" series of ads with this generic-scientist type and all these people coming on saying, "My TV smells like cheese" or "My TV smells like feet" or some such thing. Unbelievable.
What's next - "My TV blows"? I so don't want to see the visuals for that.

They haven't shown any of those in my area. I like Dish's ad's I think they are cleaver and funny. To bad most people railed on them before they ever saw one.
Actually we did see them, and they sucked (ironic)...I haven't seen any of these new ones though so I won't comment. It's hard to convince people thatyour service is better than what they have when you spend 90% of the commercial either avoiding what you've got, or promoting things that EVERYONE has like DVR and HD...
People around here seem to like the ads. The local cable carrier is Mediacom, and they, in the words of Bart Simpson, simultaneously suck and blow.
From a creative standpoint, it may be a cheap, easy joke... but I rather like the ads. As for spending 90% of your commercial promoting things "everyone" has -- well, take a look at most advertising, and you'll see it follows the same formula. Sad, but true. Oh yeah -- and I have Dish, and my TV still sucks. It doesn't have anything to do with my service, though -- it's just there's nothing good on anymore... I can't wait for the new season to see what disappointments await! (somewhat off the subject, but...)
