Aren't TV promos supposed to make me want to watch a TV show? Comedy Central is currently running promos for "The Naked Trucker and T-Bone" (or some such nonsense) and "The Sarah Silverman Show" (who?)
I cannot imagine any sane person seeing the promos for this dreck and actually saying to themselves "I need to make sure I don't miss that show."
If you find yourself thinking you wanna watch "The Naked Trucker and T-Bone", find a tall building, climb to the top and jump. You'll be doing everyone a favor.
Oh, and don't have children. Ever.
I haven't seen the commercial, but Sarah Silverman is the greatest.
Posted by: Monkey RobbL at January 18, 2007 08:39 AMYou're 100% right. I can't think of a concept or an add that is more successful in saying "don't watch this show' than the one For the Naked Trucker and T Bone.
Can't comment on the Sarah Silverman show add, I haven't seen it.

(not so cool truck) kinda like a mustang compared to a taurus. I just thought that maybe the people who thought up the show should have done a bit of research it wouldnt have taken a real rocket scientist to know that not all truck have the same interior. Especially when they aren't the same make!
