Why do most American Commercials Suck ? By Popular Demand

      Why are they better outside the USA?  What makes commercials so much more fun everywhere but here ?  I really have no idea. I do, however, remember writing a blog about great commercials  on Jan 26, 2011 that does have some great videos on it. (Check the archives) I only watch TV when I am able to fast forward commercials.  In fact, I have to assume there are lots of people like me that only DVR programs so they can eliminate all commercials.
          The real question is simply why do all or most of American commercials really suck ?  The people here in our country are the same as people around the entire world. I have traveled extensively throughout Europe and somewhat to Asia and surrounding areas, and there has never been a restriction of commercials.  But in doing some research on this, I also noticed the tremendous amount of provocative gestures throughout.  It's ironic, because just the other day I devoted an entire blog to sexual situations, pictures, and anything being provocative.  I have posted several pictures above and below and each and every one of them is not only a great advertisement, but also very provocative.  So what is wrong with the USA ???
    
   No.......this is not an orgy. It is simply a cool ad for a shoe company. But not from America.


Most of these others are self explanatory. The ad for BMW is really cool. But in general they are merely selling a product, and a little sex is used to spice it up.  I am so tired of watching some of the stupid, dumb, ridiculous commercials I see here in America that I would never buy their product out of spite.  But then again, that is me and who knows what the rest of the world is thinking.


     Of course, not every ad is sexual in content. Some are just very suggestive in one form or another. (Read the fine print in the Porsche ad above )  Is that better or worse than sexual situations ?  I don't understand it. I just know it sucks not to be able to watch or see some of these great ads here, when the same product is sold all over the world.  Something is really f**ked with this.  I just wonder who the people are that are not letting such great ads and commercials not be shown in America ?

     Whoever those people are, they should use the condoms above to make sure no offspring ever come into being.
