@thejbx the bbc have no commercials at all and yet they are the classiest and best programme makers in the known universe.

if we excluded all the racial puritanism and just kept the domestic ideals, then I think we should replace our systems of capitalism with national socialism. Obviously theres an evil stigma attached to that ideology, but it doesnt have to be so.

@swearinz the solution is making every channel pay tv (a la HBO). as someone who works in the TV / Film industry, I welcome that. The worst part of people not watching commercials anymore isn't product placement, it's reality TV. Reality TV has exploded in the last decade because it's trashy TV that get's lots of viewers and it's dirt cheap to produce. I say, make people pay for TV and they won't want to pay for 3 fucking shows about cakes. Quality TV will come back! :)

Clearly the pancake story belongs on the news. People need to know about pancakes. It is vitally important that we are informed about the nutritional power of pancakes. Long live the pancakes!
