I cannot stand commercials. I hate them. I hate them so much that I DVR all of my shows just so I can avoid them. So I have a difficult time understanding why people make such a big deal about the commercials that air during the Super Bowl. I want to watch the game. I don’t care about the commercials and I do not care about the halftime show. I just want to see the game. That said I did see some of the ads. I suppose the commercials are supposed to be humorous and/or intriguing, but for me they did not even bring a smile to my face. In other words, they sucked. Big time. This morning I tried my best to remember some of the commercials and you know how many I could actually recall? One. That’s right; out of all the ads I saw last night (other than the movie trailers) I could only recall one and I cannot say with 100% confidence what it was advertising. And I know exactly why I recall the ad and that is because it starred Amy Poehler; a comedian that I am ...

As a public service, the staff at TV and Burgers would like to provide you with material pertinent to every day living. We all know that advertisers like to use beautiful women to lure men into their stores and to buy their products.  While this does not actually work for me I do appreciate the effort.  The problem has always been that commercials do not come with end credits and the viewer is left to wonder who that hot girl was in that ad.  No more is this a problem thanks to a new website known as  Who is that hot ad girl .  I stumbled upon this site when I was searching to find out who the hot babe was in this commercial for Lowe's: I just love the shirt she is wearing as she hops out of bed in the morning.  It shows off her boobs very well.  And as we all know, that is something that heterosexual men like.  A lot.  Her name is  Gina Cantrell  and as far as I am concerned she is way hot.  I certainly would like to see ...

Good day my friends, Sir Griffin has never much cared for commercials, but when watching live sporting events they are difficult to avoid.  Over the years I have come to despise any all ads from Geico.  That is, until now. I never cared for the cavemen and I can't stand that stupid little lizard, but the first time I saw Maxwell the Pig I laughed hysterically.  Yes, your refined friend Sir Griffin is a fan of Maxwell the Pig.  I can no longer deny it. So I am writing an open letter to the folks at Geico.  Please get rid of the cavemen, the lizard and that stupid talking pile of money and focus all your efforts on Maxwell.  I love Maxwell! Seriously, a pig going wheeeeeeeeeee all the way home?  Brilliant! I must also apologize to all my loyal readers for my absence over the holidays.  I was out of town with Lady Gianna and spent some quality time dining and seeing movies during the dreaded holiday hiatus of many TV shows.  However, I...
