I don't usually turn on the TV in the early evening but today I felt like some noise so I turned it on. What an eye-opener! In 20 minutes, I saw ads for low testosterone, overactive bladder, a supplement for people "as we age", erectile dysfunction, muscle pain relief, constipation, hemorrhoids, colon cancer and a hand cream for old looking hands. Do you think the average TV viewer in the early evening is over age 50? Apparently it is. I'm missing the days when the commercials were for laundry detergent, floor cleaner and shampoo.
I'll make sure not to turn on the TV when my grandchildren are around. I don't want to explain what all those drugs and supplements are for!
