Lets see you got the one where the guy lives in an apartment and puts his dish on a shelf with no bolts not only holding the dish down or even the shelf together. First gust of wind and it all falls down.

Another one who used to sell "the dish" and it went out and he calls being told to wait and he sits staring at his tv for 5 hours. He was told to put the dish on a poll so he gets this huge poll, duct tapes it to the friggin poll right over the poll bolts on the dish to strap it to the poll!

Guy has the tree of shame and tottaly strips the tree bare and then puts a hole in the middle of it to get a signal. Screw just moving the dish I guess :p

Then a guy that lives in a super huge storage rental place has to climb a huge ladder and adjust his dish all the time.

My all time favorite with the guy doing the engine overhaul and sits on his roof in the rain franticly swinging the dish from side to side screaming now, now.

And then the newest one I just watched with a guy that buys a huge monitor hdtv set and builds a stand for it and once the tv goes on it falls apart with the tv hitting the floor. Next shot he is watching tv with the tv on the floor. Then the killer he is drilling out his power outlet????

Did I miss any?

WTF Comcast. You proud all your customers are stupid so that you can screw them in pricing??? Who cares right they are all dumb :p

Agreed, the commercials are self-incriminating. However morons might be able to relate to them and get their service as a result. :D

You should find ways to communicate your point better....your ramblings are a little hard to follow when you try to narrate each commercial, I haven't seen any of them so I don't know what you're talking about.

I know I tried my best at it. If anyone can fix it to make it sound like I am not rambling please feel free. I am not the best at english or spelling or as it looks like trying to get my point across.

Those commercials are hillarious......they have to be some of the dumbest people. Why didn't that one guy move the freaking dish instead of cutting down a tree?? I would like to see a DirecTV commercial made to make fun of those. Like maybe a ground hog came and chewed up my cable or squirrel got fried on the poll and fell, knocking off his cable connection. Then they have to wait for a few weeks to get it fixed and charged for trying to fix it themselves and messing it up even more. :confused:
