Check out the Ringling Bros/Barnum & Bailey posters - the ones with the plastic-haired, dipshit clown. People (presumably PETA types) have marked the majority of these with animal cruelty messages or low-brow drawings of clown copulation.

Thank you for noticing this - it bugs the shit out of me on the daily. However, the creative vandalism it's encouraged can only be applauded really!
I give it a mention here if anyone is interested:

my favorite vandalized one (damn I forget where...possibly the w4 washington square stop on B line..I forget) but someone crossed out the "fun" where it says make your mornings fun again and wrote white, "Make your mornings White again" with mike and julia or whatever..frikkin hilarious.

i've never seen an ad that made me NOT want its product so much. Amazing.

Is this the best you got? Reporting on defaced posters in a NY city subway? That's news? Interesting?
This is like reporting on a piss-like smell in the stairwells of Port Authority. Brilliant! Keep up the great work.

Yup. I hate this freakin' ad. It look so damn stupid. I didn't realize anyone else noticed how stupid it is.

This always make me think of Anchorman where all of them are smiling for the promo shots. It cannot be taken seriously.

Am I the only one that thinks that Mike looks like Fred Willard?

So funny - I've found myself freaked out by these posters for about a month now and am glad I'm not alone in this.
Yes, that Mike dude has had some serious work done on his face - he's really creepy. And Juliet's expression seems to say to me, "I can't believe I have to work with this old fart."
I also like the pairing with the 5-9 AM Crew (someone and Jodi...?) - they both have these frozen grins on their faces that seem to indicate they'd eat your children if given half the chance.

"Am I the only one that thinks that Mike looks like Fred Willard?"
Yeah... like Fred Willard but without the personality. Creepy looking guy... and what's with the hair? Cheap toupee or dyed to the point where it's become dried out and crinkly?

The poster where she's behind him, hanging on: very stomach turning. Like she's ever be clinging to a guy like him in real life! Look at those eyes and that plastic John Gacey grin and tell me that there's not a few bodies of young boys buried in his back yard.

Mike is soo creepy has wrinkles around his mouth since he's so old (the type of wrinkles that people with dentures get). Plus the whole thing is like sooo overly sexual.. him pouring his milk into her cup, and he's like some dirty old man hitting on a younger woman. This is twisted.

Uh?... If it's morning, and you're in a subway on your way to work, how can you watch a morning TV show?
