I’ve been without my TiVo for the past week because I sent it off to the friendly people at WeaKnees to have a second hard drive installed. In the few times that I have turned on the television, I’ve noticed a curious phenomenon. Every ten to fifteen minutes, the program I’m watching will be interrupted by these thirty-seconds short films in which the performers seem oddly enthusiastic about a particular brand of potato chips or bathroom cleanser. They’re actually quite annoying. Perhaps one of you out there would be so kind as to explain the concept to me.
