You know, I swear I used to see a lot more commercials for stuff that had no interest in at all (toys, feminine hygeine products, geritol, etc.). It seems that most all the TV ads I see anymore are aimed right at me (well, my demographic, but you know what I mean).
Now, I realize that some of it is that I’m a bachelor so I watch my shows and don’t have to sit through any kids’ shows or watch Lifetime (thank God). But still, even in college when I lived with four other guys in one house I recall seeing more ads that just didn’t concern me.
Are Ad Execs getting that much better at predicting the demographics of a particular shows viewers? Or have I just become much more predictable within my demographic? Has anyone else noticed that they see fewer ads for products they couldn’t possibly care for?
