not to sound like a Scrooge i love Christmas more then the next guy, but every other commercial on tv seems to have some Christmas theme, i started seeing them during the cards 9ers game halloween night. same during the sunday night and monday night game,. can we at least get to thanksgiving week until see starting seeing all this christmas stuff.then the same commercials are aired until wild card weekend lol
I'm with Chef, can't stand the Christmas car commercials.
I had a waitress last night ask me if i wanted another beer when my glass was 3/4 full , then she comes back and asks me if i was considering dessert halfway through my meal. I guess i got rude and told her to get off my case.
The commercials you hate are actually more effective in that you remember the product.
Now not to be sarcastic, snow updates will be coming soon to a post near you!!

I have, but only because I know my wife would buy me one in return. And we'd have big ribbons on top of them and then have a playful snowball fight in our pajamas.
I love TV, so much better than the real world where the same 60k car would have some dumbass on the street here in Brooklyn back into it and mar the bumper the first day you get it.
My most hated current commercial is the one where the dude asks his woman's 10 year old son about proposing to his Mom. It aired during MNF. Just a weird commercial.
it too was unrealistic, I mean my family getting in a horse drawn carriage, riding out to the woods, getting a Christmas in the middle of the woods and taking it back to my home on that horse drawn carriage is no more realistic than putting a bow on a Lexus and surprising someone Christmas morning, but for whatever reason the Clydesdales, the bells jingling, the background music, the snow falling, all felt like Christmas.
the oompa loompa song played at a different speed and a surprise car in the driveway do not invoke Christmas (for me).
Shit, Thanksgiving isn't even a holiday anymore. It's more like Black Friday Eve.

Forgot a word here:
...getting a Christmas **tree***
Why? You don't buy your wife $90,000 cars and put them in a bow on salt and snow covered driveway and walk her out in a blind fold every Christmas? What kind of person are you?!?!

Shit, I wish I read you post before I posted!
I like the one with the pickup truck and the SUV better, where the woman grabs the pickup in front of the McMansion.
Because nothing screams that demographic like 'pickup truck'.

You never ask a navy man if he'll have another drink because it's nobody's goddamn business how many drinks he's had already, right?
I'm sure the calendar industry agrees with you. Everyone else has budgets to worry about.
Get rid of the premature Christmas commercials? Sure, but they're only going to be replaced with equally annoying but perhaps more seasonally appropriate commercials.
Get over it.

JFC. I get that Turkey Day is late this year, but please let's hold off on the Christmas commercials. It's amazing how some people just want to rush the year by. It's November 7th.

It beats about 24 straight erectile dysfunction commercials during a football Sunday, that's for damn sure.
The early Christmas commercials are most likely a response to an increasingly large streaming behavior which means that it will take longer for any campaign to get to the magical 14th touchpoint.
That's the way to do it man, you've gotta have the ribbons. Someone brings home a new car not wrapped in a ribbon? Chump move.
