Relevant to the purpose of television:

"Homeopathic, traditionally used"
"Studies show"
*guy in a lab coat who is apparently a doctor, selling you things because all you need for credibility is a f*cktard in a white coat*
"Clinically tested"
"The pounds fall right off"
"Easy"
"3 easy steps"
"Without any exercise"
Testimonials recorded in bad quality audio, because you'll think it must be legit.
Food that looks better than it does in reality, while you know this fact.
Sales.
Slow motion.
Sweaty beverages.
Sweaty beverages in slow motion.
Sweaty people drinking sweaty beverages in slow motion.
Latest pop craze as backing music.

And the reason all this crap is around is because it works. Don't blame TV. Blame yourselves.
