Has anyone grown old of...

...all those five-second Morgan & Morgan spots that are seemingly ubiquitous on all the CC stations? And not just Tampa, but Orlando as well? Geesh, talk about cutting corners...
 
Whatever happened to Collings and Gilbert? Morgan and Morgan is based in Orlando.

You think radio is bad, watch daytime tv or look at the back of any phone book...

Would you really want them to go away? They are legends-although painful and irritating-at advertising. You love to hate them. :) Never know when you may be in that accident?

Or even the white pages of a phone book -- in some editions, a single lawyer has dibs on the upper page corners of every page.

Those 5 second spots are a certain company's selling point (heavily researched) and will not being going away anytime soon. They are actually a bonus for the listener as well as the station..so enjoy!<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by heatherwilliams on 02/13/06 11:34 AM.</FONT></P>
 
Funny you guys are talking about this....I lived in Daytona last year for a year and remember seeing this commercial about 100 times a day.

Fast forward - I move to Atlanta and suddenly Morgan is there doing commercials too. Wow a taste of Daytona in Atlanta. I did wonder what happen to Collins and Gilbert though!
