Obnoxious Commercials

Who is the marketing person that decided these obnoxious yelling commercials would draw in customers?  I actually mute the TV when these come on.

  • And they have you doing exactly what the advertisers want you to do, which is talk about it.  Whether you love it or hate, it draws attention to the commercial.  Loud and annoying commercials have been in existence since TV began. Such as the "Wazzupppp" commercials and others.   They do that to get your attention, negative or positive so that you see the commercial, even if you hate it, you now are talking about it and paid attention to it, even if it was subconsciously.  

    No one here, including the moderators, have any control or say so over the advertising that is on the various channels on the Roku.  In reality, those are usually advertised for a period of time and then changed.  Rarely they are pulled unless there is some controversial thing surrounding them.  

    I suggest just muting or ignoring them as there are bigger things to worry about in life.

  • currently have a ONN ROKU TV(returning)commercials cause headaches from loudness,  and actually trying to find a tv with sound leveling to see if that helps
