Viva Viagra: The Nashville Sessions

[Bevo-Stevo]

Ok....I really thought these ads could not get any worse than the ones portraying the middle-aged, impotent, do-rag wearing losers jamming at the town's local watering hole, only to be subjected to this even more ridiculous crew of, "late-night-impotent," session musicians who suddenly get, "inspired," musically after a fruitless evening of trying to make magic in the studio. Almost as bad as every Lifetime Network feminine hygiene commercial..........perhaps just as bad.

 

[RockyBalboa]

yeah i hate how they all start laughing at the end, like the punchline of "viva viagra" is so ******* funny.

 

[Third Coast]

Don't be so "hard on" the old farts.

 

[CaboWabo]

You'd be singing that song too if you were getting as much *** as those guys.

 

[CajunHorn]

To get the kinda wood you couldn't cut with a Gin-Su is man ****. To sing a song about it with your special guy friends is beyond butt pirate.

As my brother-in-law put it, would you really go on TV and admit your dick doesn't work?

Then again, I think the Valtrex commercials are even worse. Call me old school, but I remember the day not so long ago when you probably wouldn't even admit contracting genital herpes to your best buddy, much less proclaiming the fact before millions of adoring fans on national TV. I understand the need to demystify the disease and make treatment options known, but dammit, I wish they would wait until after my five year-old goes to bed to inform us all of the many benefits of Valtrex. I shouldn't have to mute the commercials during a game on TV whenever my kid happens to be in the room.

The other one that gets me is the vast proliferation of lifestyle yogurts being hawked on TV these days. Good Lord, the marketing department at Dannon must be working overtime. Though I have to admit, their job of convincing the public to buy lots of edible bacteria is not an easy one. I'm just waiting for them to invent the yogurt that cures erectile dysfunction. That would be a hoot.

You realize they're actors and not actually going in front of the world declaring themselves carriers of the herpe. Of course, I suppose they could coincedentally have need for the product they're pushing.

I do agree they are very annoying commercials, though, and in no way shape or form would a group of friends hang out and sing to virtues of dick medicine together.

"Can they make a drug to keep all of your internal organs intact until your golden years? No!"

"Can they make a drug to give you mental clarity through your golden time? No!"

"Can they make a drug to get you harder than Chinese algebra? Hell yeah!"

I always get a kick out of the disclaimer that ays stop taking Viagra if your vision becomes impaired.

Good advice.....you wouldn't want to get all wooded-up and then not be able to make out the lookers from the frogs.

 

[El_Oso]

it actually means don't play with it too much or you'll go blind.

 

[Steel Shank]

They should just use a super hot chick. That'll get the message across.

 

[Longhorn_Fan68]

The worst part about them is that they get the ******* song stuck in your head.

 

[WorsterMan]

OK, I have asked privately among my friends, now I will ask in public: When will the American Pharmaceutical industry invent & advertise a damn drug that women gather around a campfire or over tea and sing about... a version of viagra for women? It is way overdue

 

[BA93]

The commercial generated talk and someone starts a thread about it. I'm sure the drug company is upset that this would never occur in real life.
