I do not appreciate the language that is inferred on the commercials with Samuel Jackson. I think it not appropriate for young peoples ears. I was very shocked to hear God's name used in vain, and even though the "F" word was bleeped out, it was still inferred. How terrible to think to get listners attention you need to use such language in commercials.
