Bud Light Golden Wheat Commercials Buy Out All "Saturday Night Live" Advertising

If this beer was really any good, would A/B have the need to buy all the national ad time during the broadcast?

From reading TFA, they're even sponsoring a segment of the show. Talk about whoring yourself out. That sound you hear is John Belushi spinning in his grave.

Don't kid yourself... John got stuck mid-spin right around the time Jimmy Fallone got his own show.

But only after cable and satellite added 200+ channels.

I like SNL, but that sounds completely unwatchable.

I get irritated when a show has the same commercial once a commercial break.

No sir, I don't like it.

I find that any macro brew crap tastes like 'beer soda' more so than actual beer. Give me some Sam Smith's Oatmeal Stout any day over this swill.

I could, but I'd be lying.

Sounds to me like A/B is remarketing Shock Top, which did well initially, but has dwindled with the economic downturn. They can't make any other beer, so I don't know why they would try this.

Oh, uh, SNL is whored out.
