I tried to force myself not to use Tony the Tiger in this post, so I figure I'd drop that in the title. Something hit me tonight. Remember not too long ago, when we had really cool or so-corny-it's-cool cereal commercials? You don't remember?
Trix
Corn Pops
Cookie Crisp
Rice Krispies
Count Chocula
And my personal favorite:
Raisin Bran
Where did shit like this go??!! My first theory is, maybe I just don't watch the same TV shows I used to watch who had the target demographics for this stuff (actually stoned 18-34 year olds is the more appropriate audience for this). Or, maybe all these great cereal personalities have formed some sort of labor union and didn't like how they were being seen in the media. I don't know, you tell me.
Whatever the case may be, I think a few letters need to be written and a few phone calls should be made. Don't let these cereal companies act like they're too cocky to advertise their shitty products with awesome commercials.

It's def that we don't watch the same tv anymore
