So I'm up late still getting things together for the Con and I'm watching whatever shows won't bore me into a coma. Of course, the picking is slim. One thing appeared on every station I watched, like the inevitable facial blemish on photo day, and that was the ExtenZe commercial. I don't have a problem with the product; do what you like. Its just an annoying commercial.
First of all, What's the problem with saying penis? We have ads that say breasts, vaginal this or that, condoms, herpes, etc... but we can't say penis? Instead there is an over abundance of the phrase "That certain male member." Its like a bad romance novel.
Secondly, the girl that tells you all about the product is terrible. She's one step up from the small business owners who think that they should make their own ads even though they've had no acting experience what so ever. It would seem the director told her to be sexy...and this translated into speaking slowly, stressing words awkwardly and blinking A LOT. Nothing says sex kitten to me like appearing to have dust in your eyes.
The only chuckle I get out of the commercial is the "doctor" who tells us that he has -personally- researched this product and knows that it works. Oh, I bet he has! *wink* *wink* *nudge* nudge*
So I'm not completely done and that probably means more of these lovely commercials.
*sigh* Anyone want to do some research? ;)
