Default TV Commercials.

December 12, 2014 loud commercials are outlawed! So starting Dec. 13, commercials won't blare at you louder than you set tv volume at for show viewing.

Finally!!! I thought they were supposed to start that awhile back?
Thought maybe they forgot...

Speaking of xmas commercials, I think K-mart is the winner of
the best/funniest, with that boxer shorts comm. and Penny's
comes in 2nd with the Cha Cha comm.

Wait . . .Did you mean December 12, 2013?

I don't watch regular TV. I only have rabbit ears and they are pretty fickle. So I watch everything on Netflix, Hulu, or the internet. Commercials are not an issue. Hulu plays them but they're only a few seconds long and none of them have seemed louder than the show I was watching.

Aha, I looked it up and it was supposed to be in-acted 12-13-12.
I guess they did forget.

I've always got the remote in hand ready to hit the mute button.
