It's really great to watch TV all day and night for a living. But then again, it's not that great to watch TV all day and night, because there's a lot of crap you have to put up with to get to the good stuff. Take commercials. Now, I actually like commercials, the good ones, but there are so many bad ones that...ugh. Here are five new-ish ones that have been driving me batty.
1. That Honda commercial with Danica Patrick: She's on her way to meet someone and is running late, so she drives fast and is pulled over by a state trooper. She says to herself "it's showtime" and decides to undo her shirt a little and make sure her makeup is OK, to show the cop her breasts and flirt so she won't get a ticket. Congratulations, Danica.

I've been in love with this woman for over a year now. The
girl in the tight blue sweater that talks about how great the cars are. Until now, I didn't have any idea who she was
or where she came from. I just knew that I never changed the channel whenever her commercials came on.
But
now thanks to Google (a
cache actually; the original page didn't
come up), I find out that her name is Jill Wagner. She was born in Winston-Salem, NC, has a business degree from North
Carolina State University, and has been an actress in
Not Just Another Teen Movie,
Big Fat Liar,
Punk'd,
Dr. Vegas, and
Monk. She has a role in the upcoming TV series version of the
Blade flicks.
Wow, she's going to be on every single week now? Hey Keith, can I review this show?
