Billy Mays here, to tell you about....

This is a great little clip series of Billy Mays, probably a household spokesperson, who unfortunately hasn't matured yet to the maturity of logical hand gestures, or USING HIS INSIDE VOICE.



Ratings: 1 (low) to 4 (high)
Stickiness: 2.5 (we're talking about it)
Quality: 1
Hit/Miss: Miss
Overall: 1.5
Comments: Billy Mays has mechanisms that seem artificial and canned, and dammit, I just don't like being yelled at AND pointed to at the same time. Want to drive me away from whatever product is being advertised? Hawk it by one-note Billy Mays.

(No offense to Billy personally, he's made a growing career out of sales pitching. I just can't stand to hear or see it.)
