Which means either the agency and the client think that the customer is too stupid to understand anything else, or the agency and the client are stupid. Either way it's just plain stupid.

Always the same puking voice.."Hey folks, we'll get right back to the music but FIRST I wanna tell you about this amazing product......." Do ad agency people think we all sound like Johnny Fever?

Always the same puking voice..”Hey folks, we’ll get right back to the music but FIRST I wanna tell you about this amazing product…….” Do ad agency people think we all sound like Johnny Fever?

This talent does a lot of CBS work (60 Minutes, Letterman spoofs). Uncle Sam wrote the check for this? Maybe I can deduct it my from taxes as a bad investment. :) I heard this one day in a network PSA break and could not imagine that, 1) this won a Mercury Award, and 2) that it passed muster from agency, producer, and client.
