Also I'd like to mark this moment in history, when even the American As-Seen-On-TV marketplace gave up and just applied American branding and mythology to original Chinese products.
We'll look back fondly on the days when infomercials peddled cheap and stupid American invented/patented solutions to uniquely stupid American problems.
At this point, every other non-game Kickstarter or Indiegogo is something you can find on AliExpress already so infomercials are just cartching up. Hell, I was looking through dumb indigogo pitches and one was already available in retail stores under a different name.
I do not understand whoever it is that markets for As Seen On TV assuming that rhyming, repitition and not showing me the advantages of the product will get me to buy it. They have a really odd concept of salesmanship.
You have to remember that this garbage is marketed towards people who are up late at night and don't know what the internet is.
I can understand why people in my generation might not want to frequent youtube or various types of social media, but there is an astounding number of people who just don't use it for anything... or their first encounter with something like looking up some information was when they got their first iPhone.
