And Another Thing...

I'm watching TV tonight and the commercials just get more and more intrusive. But it's not just the actual commercials any more. I can't stand the constant little promo crawls that they put on the screen. I've had it with little basketball players dribbling across the screen and pop-ups telling me about the 30th showing of some movie I didn't want to see anyway. Hey Bravo, I'm watching James Bond -- do you think I want to have the show interrupted by a pop-up telling me that Chicago will be on next week? And I even really liked that movie! And we wonder why more then 1 million commercial free downloads were done in the first three weeks after the video iPod was released! Stop annoying me already, will ya'? I just want to watch my shows in peace!
