Strange "image" on TV while watching advlt Swim

Post » Wed Aug 21, 2013 8:43 am

Last night, I was watching advlt Swim like I do every night when I am getting sleepy. American Dad was on, and then it was a commercial break. There was a promo for a upcoming Squidbillies episode. During that promo, an unrelated "image" or something popped up for a quick second with an odd sound then went back to the commercial like nothing happened. I know it was unrelated because I was actually paying attention to the plot preview of that commercial.

Today, http://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1kr118/this_image_flashed_on_my_tv_accompanied_by_blood/ that I was not going nuts or was just very tired!

What do you guys think? Just advlt Swim being advlt Swim? Sure, they have gotten really https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKvU7kAqGLE with their own original commercials but this was not a part of any of those weird commercials since this happened during a preview for a show.

Yes, it was those crazy dudes at advlt Swim. They love messing with their audiences. Though I thoroughly enjoyed back in 2005 them "cursing out" the Eagles when they beat the Falcons on the way to the Super Bowl.

People are talking about it on the internet. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's on purpose. ;)

Can I get a picture of this 'weird image' or is it not forum-suitable?

So, you come in here to tell us about a weird creepy image without actually providing a pic of said image?

This thread svcks. Pics, or it didn't happen.

Note: Don't click on links if you have weak hearts. :tongue:

It's right there in the reddit post. :tongue: http://imgur.com/PweSOmc

Found this in the comment section of the reddit post too, a poor quality video displaying a jump scare on a TV monitor during some aqua show thingy. (Jump scare around 13 seconds) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJuB47Z_HdI

Also in the comments it seems they are promoting some The Heart She Hollers show. http://video.advltswim.com/the-heart-she-holler/meemaw/

This is the first in a long line of commercial jump scares, I bet.

Jokes on them, I definitely won't be watching their station now. And not only just because I don't have Pay-TV.

They best not put one of those over a King of the Hill commercial.

The idea is pretty funny though.
