This is almost as OT as they get, so OT foes, hit Delete immediately! Is anyone else in our group bugged by the Progresso soup TV ad that features a tin-can "telephone"? Surely some of you, like me,

I put it in the same category as Wild Bill Hickok's .45s which never had to be reloaded, and never missed, and Disney's Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier. It's TV..... nothing real about it, e

John; I think the same thing as you when I see that ad with the loose string!  Tighten the string between the two cans, hold them straight (in line with the string) and your voices will be heard!  Le

Good Eye, John. I missed the ad, but that sort of technical blunder bugs me whenever I see it in ads or (worse) during the main TV shows (although the ads are more entertaining to me than the shows a

It's a TV commercial. It's a fantasy; it's not real. It's about as far from reality as you can get, before you start dealing with Orcs, Elves, and Jedi Knights. I put this in the same category as The

You guys are living in the past. When we were kids, we were kept on a short line, didn't cut corners, and families ran a tight ship. Technology has come a long ways since John was a kid. Modern strin

This is a missed opportunity to educate children. A tin can telephone with the line slack is only a imaginary play object. By showing it with the line properly taut a child could copy it and find tha
