TV Critic On Early Super Bowl Ads

Tribune TV critic Steve Johnson argues a point that seems obvious (to me): the Super Bowl will be an anticlimax because, by the time the game airs Sunday on NBC, most everybody who really wants to will have seen the ads. Half of the spots slated to run Sunday evening — during the moments when the New England Patriots are not playing the New York Giants for the National Football League championship — were already available on the Web Wednesday, he notes. That is, apparently a record for Super Bowl pre-game airings.
