how about Saved last year? those were terrible too.
I will never watch one minute of The Closer because of three years of nonstop promos while i'm trying to watch basketball. Those promos are the bane of my existence.
They've given us Into the West and The Closer during previous Playoff runs... But this year TNT is promoting an entire schedule worth of programs to NBA viewers. It's enough to make one wonder if they're having trouble selling to real advertisers.
The Closer - Two promos this time around... One a series of inside visual references that I assume only the avid viewer would understand set to "Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone"; the other, a condescending spot where actors explain crime fighting.
House of Payne - If this series' funniest line is "I'm rubber you're glue whatever you say bounce off me stick back on you" then it's probably in trouble.
Saving Grace - This promo physically hurts my ears. And what the is it about anyway?
Heartland - Any show with Treat Williams endorsed by Alonzo Mourning MUST be good!

I like the bluesy way the chick sings 'Amazing Grace' in the spot...just wish it wouldn't come on 39 times each game.
They even do it during the game itself. The "Closer" of the game.
i think they should revamp their ad campaign. we know drama is played out. it's time for Selling the Drama, complete with Live music!
I know it's not a promo, but nothing is worse than ABC's "Right Now". Good on the eyes, horrible on the years
How many basketball fans actually watch The Closer or any of those shows?
It would be great to reverse the whip and see them promo Spurs/Suns Game 1 fifty times while a new episode of The Closer is on. Maybe they already do it, I wouldn't know because I'll never watch that damn show.
If I see one more "Closer" timeout, I'm gonna
Bluesy? Ugh, it sounds like a Leann Rymes wannabe.
Actually, it probably is Leann Rymes.
My vote, FWIW, is for "House of Payne." As much as I hate the sight of Kyra Sedgwick after the last three years (and I've actually never liked her, going back to Born on the Fourth of July), the "House of Payne" promo is so loud, obnoxious and painfully unfunny that it actually makes me hate mankind.
the worst kyra sedgwick moment from two years ago was "if i liked being called a i'd still be married"
worst kyria sedgwick moment from last year - "thank yeeewwww!"
what do we all say it is this year? i say it's her name on the desk as a way of showing that she's bigger than the show.
dont forget the hulk when they had chris webber turning all green.
Not sure how ppl can watch the tnt games w/out tivO or dvr..............
They play the same commercials over & over.......... Perhaps as much as 15 to 20 times per game........... Often times repeating the same ones during the same two min break........
OMFG ... House of Payne. Chris & I both have started ing every time one of those stupid commercials comes on. They've been pimping that show for 3 friggin months already and it doesn't even start for like, 6 more weeks. It's destined to fail, now.
Can anybody tell me when House of Payne starts?
Boo promos!
I'd rather have more commercials of DWade trying to get in Charles' fave 5.
I'm sick of all the NBA Cares commercials
One of the best things about being in China for 2 weeks (which I am) is the complete lack of TNT promos during the opening rounds. You all will be sick of them by the time I come rolling back in, but thankfully, all teams will probably be well into the 2nd round, so I will only have to endure a little bit of this .
Then again, we will segway straight into "Right Now" and the Pussycat Dolls looking hot but driving me insane on ABC's terrible coverage.
Bring back John Tesh.
Actually Mark Cuban is responsible for all those promos you see on TNT.
