Peeve... match production of commercials to programs

[KaptainRandom]

This isn't particular to Dish,
But to all providers
Down to station level production.

I wish the presented production of commercials at least somewhat matched the program it is presented with.

If I'm watching a B&W show,
The commercials should also be B&W.

If I'm watching a 4x3 show with side bars,
The commercials should match.

It drives me crazy to be watching older productions in B&W,
Just when my brain is acommodating to the tonality...
BAM..
Bright @$$ color commercial break throws my brain into a tizzy.

So your gripe is with the stations, and has nothing to do with Dish or Direct....Call those programmers and give them your idea.....Im sure there not here reading this.

Call those programmers and give them your idea.

And don't expect any changes.

First world problem.

For the most part, commercial production and placement is controlled by the advertisers and ad agencies. You know, the folks paying the bills...

Good exercise for the brain!

 

[Bobby]

Commercials, what are they, no matter what version they may be...

I guess I'm the only one bothered by the misspelling of "peeve". Surely our OP (which whom I sympathize) doesn't mean this: Urban Dictionary: PEAVE

Based on the Urban Dictionary, perhaps he doesn't have a peeve but is peaving!

I dont think they make black and white commercials anymore

 

[navychop]

Care to sign my petition to colorize Paper Moon so it will match the commercials?

It's the same reason why commercials as always louder than the programs. They are purposefully recorded at a higher audio db level so that when a commercial comes on it will attract your attention.

The main reason that AVR manufacturers have added audio auto-leveling settings in their receivers.

Advertisers are not going to produce a black and white advertisement. They want their commercials to stand out and attract viewers attention.

There is an option on your satellite receiver to fix that...called sound leveling

Nope, it bothered me too, took me a second to figure out what the title was trying to say. Just got power back after our snow storm yesterday, so I fixed the spelling in the title.

The hell with color or black and white commercials. I wish they would make silent ones so I don't have to hear about a bunch of Bullsh!t that I'll never buy or is a scam
