I was thinking about the old way, when they flat out told you beforehand “this coffee brand paid for this hour of entertainment to exist” so that’s why it’s called Nescafe’s The Walking Dead.
Honestly, I prefer the “this show sponsored by” model to the jumping, screaming, interrupting the show every 10 minutes with a cacophonous cavalcade of crap that TV advertising is now. It’s gotten so bad I don’t even bother hooking up the antenna anymore; the TV’s just a display for game consoles and Netflix now.
In show advertising used to be a thing.
And honestly, I wouldn’t be opposed to something like how they advertised in the Truman Show.

I’ve not had an antenna for 15 years! TV’s hooked up to an old PC we use for streaming.
If only.
