OK, I taped in 1997 the Munsters and addams family marathon and they showed 4 commercials and 3 retromercials. Now it is all this hair tonic and facial cream and etc. the only decent one is the Old El Paso and Orville Redonbocher's PopCorn.

Pretty soon TV Land will be more commercials than program.

Another one that they run quite a bit and that's the one where the guy on the horse tells us he has diabetes. Not making fun of the disesase, just saying they run that commercial in the ground.

Yeah,He acts like WE ARE supposed to know him. He would have an attack if we didn't know him.

Oh, I thought it was Billy Mays! Either way, this guy should have his own show -- just like Emeril. He could play an infomercial spokesman who has a wacky staff and a wacky family at home -- just like Emeril!

"And if you call right now, we'll supersize your 2 1/2 gallon tub to a six-gallon bucket!"

And since when did oranges become a grease fighter?

LOL! I'm not sure if it's Hayes or Mayes either....hmmm. You're Probably Right, LOL
Yes! He should have his own show!

Billy: My producers at the Infomercial Palace have told me I can't say a word I've been saying. But I bet you can guess. It's a citrus fruit. You squeeze it.
Audience: ORANGES!

LOL. Let's see what his procduts are:
Oxi-Clean (The MOTHER SHIP!)
Orange-Glo (The Middle Child)
Orange-Clean (The LEss Seen of the Three, the Madga Gabor of the Clean/Glos lol)

And one time in the middle of the ngiht, TV-Guide Channel played a long Orange Glo (or Clean) commercial...Billy (The Man EVERYONE KNOWS! LOL) had a corospodent at the news desk. Sad, yes. Not that. The sad part is that I'm awake then LOL!

He had some lady and he looked like he was tired of it himself!!!

And dawsongirl I know what you mean about Pink Floyd.It's Pink Floyd,America,Rod Stewart and Neil Diamond.Those CD commercials get on my nerves!!!!!!
And the mother of then all:

50 #1 COUNTRY HITS!!!!!!!

I don't care about the prettiest girl in the world,I don't care about who needs a spanking,I don't care if a man loves little baby ducks!

I love the Once Upon A Song commercial mainly because of "And then mah mamma socked it to the Harper Valley,P.T.A!!!!!"

"I Love...Little Baby Ducks." I laugh everytime that comes on. I can't believe someone wrote a song like that!

And I can't stand the way Neil Diamond sings "I'm a Believer." That would make me boycott the whole CD.

It's Billy MAYES. I HATE those!

I hate that one! It can't even put you to sleep because its so annoying. One night when I couldn't sleep I turned on tv land and that commercial was on for an hour I think. I heard that one baby ducks song every five minutes! I felt like throwing rocks at my television.
