No idea. I've been in the US for 20 years. Even back home I rarely watched CBC other than HNIC.
That reminds me - having watched a lot of CBC coverage (because NBC isn't a real network), I have to ask you if it's common to have a lot of cartoon-based commercials on Canadian stations.

The ad execs who approved that and the random red couch should get together and die in a fire.

You can tell me that you don't hate whomever is writing these things, but I won't believe you.

Yes, the commercials are annoying, but I prefer to look at Red over Flo any day of the week.

To make it a trifecta, let's add the KFC commercials. You know the one where the person is holding some sort of camera to film them talking about the food, and it ends with some techno-ish music to remind you how bad-*** this piece of fried chicken is.

Not really annoying, but I find the Dunkin' Donuts commercial about the new chicken sausage breakfast sandwich, with the two sausages sticking together by the casing, to be very unappealing.

I watch Cooking Channel every morning, and every half-hour or so, they play this commercial:

After watching this commercial, not only do I want to throw a brick through the TV, I want to smash everyone involved in the making of the commercial with a shovel, or a sledgehammer, or the heaviest thing I can lift.

Also, the ads for Christian Mingle. As if God has a preferred dating service.

There's an ad for a COPD medicine that has an elephant walking around behind people. If you look closely, you'll see that the shadows cast by the people walking are at a different angle than the shadow cast by the elephant.
Actually, that doesn't bother me too much.
The latest ad for Chanel # 5 does, though. It features a distressed-looking Giselle Bundchen scurrying around until she finds a man waiting for her at the opera house, and it's not Tom Brady. Kind of spoils the mystique they are trying to build. I like it better when I know nothing at all about a model's (or actor's) personal life.

It's probably J-Date, anyway. Because, well, you know....
The Saver's Halloween radio commercial: Bell bell bell we've got COSTUMES!!!!
I want to hammerpunch anyone who was involved in that.

The new Sprint commercials. Just terrible.

Reminder: If you don't buy your significant other a $75,000 car (and wrap it in a giant red bow!) that means you don't really love them.
