Ah fair point, should've been more specific. I was a kiddo in the late 90's. I was surprised how many of the ads, especially for things like those Life Alert buttons, were completely unchanged.
Also I can't help but notice that 7/8ths of what's advertised on TV is for seniors.
- jerf 9y agoYes, that makes sense. While the initial thought might be "why change what works" my thought is that the whole operation strikes me as one that is just barely making enough to run the ads at all, rather than some sort of well-funded enterprise that is just not making new ads.
- FussyZeus 9y agoI dunno about that, caring for the elderly is a pretty booming business right now with the Baby Boom generation hitting their stride into the silver years. Frankly though they should really update it, some of the footage from their call centers shows people working at dual CRT desks with software that looks like it's straight out of War Games. If I was shopping for something for my mother, I'd want their service at LEAST running Windows 7.
