Really, Greta, very true.

Does it have anything to do with the atmosphere?

I think they're creepy.

Perfect example of what I mean by advertising moles working for the competitor. Why would I approve an ad for my company that gives people the creeps?

The skies look like they're about to open. In one or two, at least, it's just black-and-white gray.

Here's a set of commercials in which we walk away knowing what the commercial was about (we remembered it was IP) but disliking the medium. Or is it the message?

Could they change the IP ads or are they hopeless?

Greta Mc....Normally, those are the type of commercials I'll watch once, maybe, but the next time I see them pop up on the screen, I'll click past them in a flash. I wonder why companies like IP even bother to advertise on TV. Who are they aiming it at, anyway? It just seems like a waist of money to me.
