I can't believe first that someone would come up with some of the stupid/insulting/distasteful approaches to selling a product but then someone above them actually approves it. Must be the same people that pull the genuinely good TV programs and leave the rest of the trash on for years. Ann in TN

Pat always mutes the "Expedia" commercial with the over-the-top guy from Project Runway. Tim Gunn or something like that - he says the guy's voice drives him batty. I mute the commercial for Kit Kat. Bad enough when they sing that stupid jingle but now they munch and crunch in the rhythm of the jingle. Makes my skin crawl.
