I hate TV adverts. In Australia I watched the ABC 90% of the time. Owned by the government, it did not have adverts although program promos took up a lot of time but they were between programs, not interruptions. Here in NZ the 2 government stations have adverts and are indistinguishable from commercial TV. Therefore I now watch very little TV.
However I can watch one advert over and over again. Probably helped by the fact that the last pet I owned (he was actually owned by my sister ) was Terry, a Fox terrier , almost indistinguishable from the dog in the add ( I believe there were 3). He died in 1971. I have not had a pet since.
It has just won NZ advert of the year. I actually voted, I usually would not waste money on such things. However, although I love the advert and the followups, I oppose all forms of gambling.
