Is it a coincidence that I'm watching a Ron Popeil infomercial as I browse the boards? I think not. This is a great idea and I hope they do end up doing this.

There needs to be a Tom Peterson POP for the Portland, OR area people. Anyone else remember Tom Peterson? He is more well known now because Kurt Cobain had a watch with Tom Peterson on it.

Haha, this would be a funny line to see made. There is a few others besides Mays and Popeil that are pretty well known from the older days also.

If your question is what is an infomercial, it's basically a lengthy but informative commercial about a product. Flex Tape, for example :D

Personally, I cant see these being popular in any way, and they're all annoying as all get out. I really hope these don't become a thing.
