I'm a tad distressed by James Patterson's television ads for his new book, "Toys." I may be too traditional, but it seems to me that books should not be promoted on television; these commercials seem to cheapen them.

That is true, but I guess with the economy being this bad, maybe that's what it takes, I will forgive, but you do have a valid point, his books are the best!

Probably part of his attempts to publicize himself. He's a guest star on Castle, so perhaps advertising television is an extension of that. Maybe he's trying to be creative with "expanding" his bottom line, if you will.

Haven't seen the commercials, though.
