It has come to my attention that television commercials can now be divided into three categories.
1) Pharmaceuticals
The drug companies are putting all their money into television commercials. That explains why the drugs don't work and/or make you sicker. See Vytorin.
2) Weight Loss
NutriSystems, Jenny Craig, DucTape Yer Mouth (I made that last one up) are all designed to appeal to your desire to look like a skank. Lose a few pounds and you can wear that Ace Bandage dress you've been admiring.
3) Weight Gain
TGIFridays, Outback, various candy manufacturers et al appeal to American's desire to ingest huge quantities of fat at every meal. From the looks of people these ads are working.
