Hairy beavers are so last millennium.

Yawn.

Is the pool of photogenic and talented creatives so limited that they have to use repeat performers?

At least House is on.

You're the bomb, Matthew Eastwood.

I think ratings will be down this week - to the tune of all people who didn't wish to see Jane Caro talk about vaginas.

I watched paint dry. Was riveting compared to what was on tv.

I tried the Rugby. Run straight at somebody. Get tackled. Roll ball under foot. Run straight at somebody. Get tackled. Roll ball under foot. Repeat six times, then kick ball. Wow, that's intelligent. The strategy! The deep skills involved! Switched to Russel and Co after five minutes or so. Thankfully missed the beaver stuff - had to be written by smart arese blokes. Can't wait for House to have new episodes!

I bet Grant and Ant didn't just sit back and write ads about beavers. They got busy!!!

Gruen Website is far more funnier than the show.....

I thought Wil Anderson was just brilliant last night. He was funny, charismatic and insightful.

Then again, I like inhaling my farts.

Beaver is a shit idea. Euphamisms for vags have been so done before, with a 'pussy' (ooh er) for Cottons tampons and bush also done. Fact.

Yep, you're right 5.33pm. And they were both lame ads at the time too.

I agree about watching the thick necks running into each other. Not really a pinnacle of anything I find particularly worthy.

But you're wrong when you say the beaver stuff "had to be written by smart arese blokes" (sic). It was done by two chicks. And I for one think it's a great ad.

Eerie coincidence - for the second week in a row, the solution to what was killing the patient was found IN someone's beaver. Ooooooo....

Anonymous said:

Beaver may have been written by chicks but it's really offensive in the execution, if fact I'm so pissed off me and my friends are banning the product. If they made the beaver cute looking it could have been endearing but it's an ugly beaver that makes an ugly idea. No woman wants to think of her bits as ugly.

Believe me, I don't want to like this show, but I really don't mind it at all.

I like the Beaver.
The music track is good. he is cute.
I applaud the brave product manager who got it through.

Still did not watch Gruen.

Jane likes the Beaver.

That's good enough for me.
