Oh HomemadeSimple Squad did I make you mad?
UncategorizedMaybe it’s just me but did the frequency of the Home Made Simple Squad decrease in recent days? I mean all of the regulars are still there: Grey Power, Brand Power, Direct Buy, The freakin Chip reverse mortgage but Ms Woodburn and her cronies seem to have decreased in frequency. Not that Im complaining as I was just getting pissed off with having to hear that sexist tripe paraded out like the 1950’s were the latest thing in vogue.
Speaking of bad commercials I wonder if anyone has ever seen a senior citizen so orange as the guy from the CHIP reverse mortgage commercials? Wouldnt it be nice to get 1/4 of your house’s value so you can spend it on decorative seashells in Florida? I didnt think so.
Oh yeah I have also started up another blog dedicated to TV commercials. Its called the Best Dressed Chicken in Town and I will attempt to find all of the bad commercials (and good ones too) I can find on the web. Whoo Hoo! Fun times!

The HMSS is still on with normal regularity on CBC Newsworld, which is where I always saw it anyways - at least from what I can tell. GR. I’ll have to check out the new blog - great idea.

Grr! What is wrong with Canadian TV? It seems like they think we cant get enough of Kim Woodburn, flip up 9/11 coins from the Cook Islands or Relic Hunter! I wish we could get rid of the Grey Power commercials though. I cant see it being cheaper than ICBC (my parents live in Ontario and pay more for car insurance then me).
