I just saw the new Brinks home security commercial, and it drives me even more nuts then the last one.
The last one had two people being woken up in the middle of the night, with an outside shot showing the perpertrator fleeing. The phone rings, and the panicked women answers, at which time after a little bit of conversation, the Brinks representative offers to call the police.
The new one has a mother and her two young kids getting ready to sit down for a movie, when some assilant attempts to enter the house by breaking glass. The mother runs the kids upstairs, and then sticks a chair underneath the door. The phone rings, and the same conversation as the last takes place.
The whole tone of the commercial is that Brinks solves all the problems. Give me a break. Poor defenceless sheep, waiting for the Brinks to call, ARRRRRGGGGGGG.
I know, I shouldn't let it bug me. Alarms do have there usage, it just would be nice to see the woman run upstairs, grab a twelve gauge, station herself at the top of the stairs, and tell the Brinks guy that the loud shot will indicate the need for medical services for said intruder.
