When I watch TV, the commercials are when I get up and do something. Clean, cook etc. My husband and son watch the commercials. When they ask me about a certain commercial, I never know what they are talking about. So do you watch commercials? If not why?

I usually dont watch commercials maybe if the commercial is new i will watch it to know whats it all about but just for once or maybe if its in my interest than twice aswell but not tend to watch same coomercials again and again as there will be no benefit left to gain out of them so i might start playing games on my cell phone or start texting(SMS) to my friends while the commercials are running.

I agree, once you see a commercial you don't need to see it over and over again. I think small kids like to watch them many times.

I love the commercials . My hubby changes the channels to see what is on the other TV stations and I ask him to leave them alone lol , I sometimes think the adds are better than the programmes , I especially love the Anchor Butter ones with the cows sitting in the trees , and the Andrex puppies ,they are just so funny. I love all of the animal ones xx

Sometimes. It depends on the time I'm watching tv. If it's early in the evening I may not watch the commercials. I may get up to feed the dogs or put up supper dishes or some other chore that needs done. Later in the evening I tend to be on the computer while watching tv, so don't get up during the commercials unless it's for something like a bathroom break!

I can't stand the commercials on tv. Sometimes when I am watchind a film, I think the commercials are actually longer than the film. I usually get up and make some tea or just flick through the other channels to see what will be on next.

I don't really watch tv all that often, but when a commercial comes on I do something else. I will start supper, clean, go to the washroom, grab a drink, or take the dog out. To me commercials are annoying and I have better things to do with my time then watch some sales pitch.
