Infomercial 

A show that comes on around midnight or so to advertise a useless product. It lasts about 28-30 minutes with cheesy and over-the-top acting. Most of the time, you watch it when you can't get any sleep and you're too tired to know any better. In this state, you're convinced that you're in desperate need of a small step ladder with an mp3 player and bluetooth capabilities.
That infomercial convinced me that I need a shower radio that can also dice tomatoes. I think I wasted that $150.00.
