I concur with those who dislike the commercials. I don't mind the muppets being used in the pizza hut commercials. It's just that the current commercials are so insipid.
The thing that really made me mad was their ruining of "These Boots are Made for Walkin'" by Nancy Sinatra. Commercials reusing and rewriting old songs like that are just so uncreative. Parody is one thing, but that is another.
Why don't they actually employ a composer to write something like that, and put money in the pocket of some poor musician.
Ok, I'm done ranting now. Apolgies if I'm muffining (is that what it's called when someone ressurects a thread that is old and hasn't been posted on in a while), or beating a dead horse.
