Do people in tv adverts look convincing when they

[Deja Q]

Poll question: Do people in tv adverts look convincing when they

read the commentary from a cue card?

1. NO

I realize they are just paid to say these things and it irks me that they even bother to try to make it seem natural true or real. There is nothing natural about someone getting paid by some meglo corporation to say I like this product. Usually, if someone really likes a product they are seen in pictures using that product. Have you noticed that they advertise a LOT in movies, moreso lately? TV advertisements are just a nasty disgusting pain in the ass part of life and I hate them. I also hate those pullouts in magazines. Magazines used to have articles and pictures and the occasional advertisement, now they have the occasional article and are full of ads, like television.
