watching was very limited - mostly PBS shows sans toy commercials! We also inoculated them by watching the occasional toy commercial with them and analyzing it with them. We tended not to do much shopping with them, so they were pretty much isolated from commercial pressures.

The one toy I remember - one young son asked for a Ninja Turtle miniature golf game. He never played with it as designed - there were some components with pictures of Ninja turtles that tickled his fancy.
