Synchronicity, lol
I saw that commercial on USA the same time you posted this...
I wondered when it was gonna be pulled, heard about this a week or so back.
“He and his wife Marilyn vos Savant”
I didn’t know he was married to her. He is one lucky man.
Why would anyone consider him an expert on the medicinal use of pharmaceutics Oh, yeah, the same folks who need the disclaimer I saw earlier this evening where a guy jumped off a skyscraper and there had to be some subtext say, "do not attempt this." We are devolving media to address the lowest comment denominator.
Most drug ads feature non-physician actors. Will all of those ads be pulled, also?
I’m not a doctor, but I’ve played one on TV.
I wish they would pull all the drug ads. I am so sick of them. At least they could try and change them more often. But my gosh they tell a person to buy a drug then spend 90% of the commercial telling you how you will die from it or go blind or whatever. LOL
The cholesterol theory of heart disease has been almost completely discredited.
I think the ad should be pulled because of his stupid looking mullet and because of the way he runs like a girl in his dated jogging suit.
But that’s just my opinion.
Can we pull the whiny Democrats too? Don’t congressmen have anything better to do?
