...and he has a new set of handcuffs!

Bob's Not Smiling!

Maybe he will disappear from our TV's some time soon.

Quote from: wavery:confused:

You clearly don't watch a lot of television.  Bob is an ad character that has a massive painted-on smile (and it is implied he has a massive...um...something else).  

All of the ads in the series start with the announcer saying "This is Bob..."

He is a total nerd who has a "new spring in his step" and a generous new "surge of confidence".  Mrs Bob is clearly thrilled and all the neighbor women are jealous of Mrs. Bob.  Because of Bob's um, as they say in the ad, "natural male enhancement," the husbands are also jealous of Bob.

The ad is filled with innuendo about, um, performance.

The ads are particularly annoying not just for the subject matter (which would be plenty) but they have some late-50's or early-60's style elevator music in the background and are usually being played louder than other ads so that you can hear it throughout the house.

When PJay saw the story, she jumped for joy.  There's nothing she'd like better than to have Bob thrown in jail.  I'd be happy if they just punch his lights out (and take the ads off the air).
