The one about 'The Office'

I don't watch a lot of TV because I don't find watching the same episodes over and over again on every channel that much fun. The only shows that I really do follow are LOST, Californication, and now recently The Office:



If you watch this show, you will know who Pam, played by Jenna Fischer, is. Now, every time I watch the show on Peachtree TV, an American network, this commercial comes on EVERY break:


(Sorry, the quality of this video isn't that great)

Also, I never see this commercial on any other time. There's obviously some rationale as to why this is and what great rationale it is.

The simple fact is: "You can't NOT like Pam". She's the office sweetheart, Jim's wife, and not Michael Scott. Viewers trust her and side with her almost all the time. So, when she appears again right after she's just been on, those feelings towards her are still present. You still trust her and you still think she has the best intentions at heart.

The simple fact is: "You can't NOT like Pam". When she starts talking about Proactiv and all its benefits, you just think she wants to share this fantastic product with you. WOW, what a purely altruistic action! Thanks, Pam! And with this, you go and buy barrels of it. Hopefully by purchasing this, you can now have clear beautiful skin like Pam and be as good as a human that she is. At least I do...

Nice tactic Proactiv. Nice.
