Infomercials

I'm amazed at what people think they can sell through informercials and while I greatly miss Billy Mays' gargling raspy voice, I've never been a fan of them. From Ron's famous "Set It and Forget It", to Chia Obama, to the Shamwow guy who hired a hooker that bit off his tongue, I usually ignore infomercials when they come on the TV...until I saw these. These both made me laugh my ass off. I thought they were SNL commercials.


The Better Marriage Blanket - Watch more Funny Videos

$120 for a f*cking blanket!?! Seriously now. This is going to kill the Dutch Oven! They're going to ruin a historic and widely celebrated bedtime prank. I would say rather than letting a space blanket soak up all the fun, it's much more hilarious to light one's flatulence on fire or to smother someone in it against their will while yelling, "Dutch Oven!"


I'll let the next one speak for itself.




As hilarious and ridiculous as these infomercials may be, the outrageousness has created buzz on both of the products. Maybe a convenient holiday rerelease is on the way as a gift-giving idea. Anyways, I'm sure the creators are laughing all the way to the bank...

What are your favorite infomercials?
