TV Commercials

Wow. Was it graphic in any way?

I’ve seen TV ads for MMS subscription services which let you sign up for a daily 144x144 image of tits, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a TV commercial for a porn site.

Unfortunately the exact name of the business escapes me right now, I recently saw an ad during late night TV (on Nine…I think) for an online adult toy store. Although it wasn’t graphic, it was full of innuendo from what I remember.

Ads for porn sites are new territory, though ads for adult oriented websites have gotten a lot of late night ad airtime over the years albeit they’re almost all of the dating website variety - Ashley Madison ads got a really frequent run on Ten’s multichannels a few years ago. Not to mention ads for adult oriented dating sites such as this classic.

It’s not like the good old days though, where as soon as Midnight (or sometimes 10:30pm) struck well over half the ads would be for phone sex lines.

Nothing special. Looks like it’s a fairly new ad based on some recent tweets so you’ll probably see it if you watch enough late night tv.

Yeah I should’ve wrote porn site instead of 18+ :slight_smile:

I can’t stand pretty much any of the ads promoting gambling apps but in particular I’ve never found any of the “Neds” ads amusing or even making sense.

Dont know where to put this but has anyone else in Melbourne noticed the spike in Franco Cozzo Ads on Nine?

I saw another one this morning but it was just him dancing and singing about ‘Footscray’ If anyone capped that one I would like to see it :joy:

Must have found some loose change behind the couch.

Guessing that Non-Ratings is cheaper?
The last time I visited Melbourne Christmas 2013 his ads (at that time the 80s era 4:3 classic!) were playing on Nine relatively frequently in the evening.

That’s worse than the old Direct Carpet Manufacturers / Little Doer Carpets commercials in Sydney.

Or Joyce Mayne ads?

Maybe the old Franco Cozzo ads have finally been retired? Those ones plus the Seal a Fridge ad ran for YEARS until recently…

You mean this one?

Haven’t seen those ones but I remember this Roof Seal ad that i think is still going!

…or the Blockout Shutters commercial (which I think was last regularly shown on Sydney TV around 2012)!

I was actually watching this Ad before on youtube- This might just have been the cheesiest Ad ever in Australia.
