DirectTV ads
Does anyone else find the DirectTV ads freaking annoying? Good actors reading customer fan mail with the 'stage crew' cheering them on. I don't think it bothered me that much until about the third actor, now the commercials drive me insane.

7. Doesn't TIVO record what you watch?
I would NEVER trust anything to record anything about my TV habits. Next thing I know, Asscroft would subpoena my TIVO records.

Fucking evil. :grr:

performed a grueling 4 hour Broadway play the way the crew claps and "puffs them up"
