Things you don't need to see on TV

My bugbear at the moment is THAT ad on TV about the spreading the flu, with the slow-mo of the bird having a sneeze.

I had two occasions at work today (among other things I sell TV's) when customers complained about THAT ad.

In my house, we make a point of turning away and not looking at it.

I don't think it's great viewing on TV, so it got me wondering: Do any other posters have things on TV that they think is "unacceptable?"

I agree Sommers should never be allowed on TV.
also Caro Wilson shouldnt be allowed on Tv with Gary Lyon and Grant Thomas aswell.
Ill also add David Koch, Graham Cornes, Grant Denyer, Nelson Aspin, Richard Wilkins, any master chef judge, Wil Anderson and that Josh from talking about your generation.
Oh and i forgot Karin Grant

So what you are saying is you'd prefer less Australians on T.V?
