Anyone else notice

The many commercials on Super Bowl from NBC? Didn't they sell out at $7 million for 30 seconds? Too expensive I think.

1. The commercials aren't that great this year I think.

2. It's such a boondoggle for NBC

The SuperBowl "warmup" show lasted 6 hours! This is like Black Friday for them.
They can lose money for the rest of the year and still come out even.

5. Well, to be honest, my TV was on NBC for about 5 hours.

Nobody watching it as it was just noise in the background.
But it would still help their stats.

4. I love that ad.

6. It did seem excessive, but given how many ads they sold to Disney plus, netflix, etc, they

probably decided that taking that money to advertise their competitors couldn't go unbalanced by failing to sacrifice some ad time to push their shows/peacock.

7. Cat herding was a classic

Here is my all time favorite Superbowl ad. They did it like a movie promo ad with short few second soundbites name dropping the movie, and then they dropped the actual ad.

It wouldn't work now with the price so high being so long, but it was funny then.
