Subject: Jamster Ringtone/Wallpaper Commercials

Written By: AngeFaitore on 01/29/05 at 5:12 pm

How many of you are sick of the Jamster commercials? I'm actually glad that I don't own a cel phone. These commercials are run at every break on VH1, MTV, Comedy Central (Who else on cable or sat shows them?).

They use to make a new one for each part {screensaver, wallpaper, ringtone} every day. You had three choices on each. Now, I've seen the same pimp car screensaver one for three days. And yes, they are annoying. Here, they're on every network.

Yeah, I've read that they run pretty ramped over in Europe. They take up most of the commercial breaks.
Over here they can be found on any hip 18-35 appeal channel.

I see em on Fox and Comedy Central too. I guess CC is a largely 18-35 demographic, though. But Fox and the like?

I rarely see 'em on the major networks because I don't watch 'em except for Fox on Sunday. I have to admit that The Simpsons are getting lame.

Nor do I. I don't watch much TV, and I tend to keep on one network at a time. I always see at least one Jamster. I used to find it interesting, seeing the new one every day. But then they stopped having a new one every day. It became so irregular.

And yes, the Simpsons are losing their touch. But how long could it really last?

I HATE THEM... >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( THey are now beginning to show alot of half-naked women cell phone screensavers too. At first I didnt mind them, but its the same annoying songs again and again!  It's officially become extremely irksome.

Today (I watched one episode of MADE on mtv) I saw the "Baby got back", "HAlf-naked women", that stupid "Sweetey" bird one, and a regular phone ringtone commercial. IN 1 hour of television!

They call those the "Sexy {Insert Random Girl Name}" ones. But, you have to consider, what demographic are they going after? A bunch of 15-22 year old damnholes who take any chance to get some lame porn. Freakin' ridiculous.

That's right, I made up a swear, Try 'n' stop me!

I guess they're trying to promote their ringtone and wallpaper cell phone advertisements.I agree that they're a bit annoying. >:(
