Re: Billy Mays TV Filter Needed

I dont hate Billy Mays, but those commercials are irksome.About all I
can do about tv commercials is Mute the sound or change channels.He pops
up almost everywhere on tv.Last night I was watching BBC America tv news
and up popped Billy Mays.There are a lot of other tv commercials I dont
like either.
