Or you were watching TV, listening to the radio, reading a magazine, driving down the street, look up at the sky, reading a newspaper, checking your mail.......

Leela: Didn't you have ads in the 20th century?

Fry: Well, sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines and movies and at ball games, on buses and milk cartons and T-shirts and bananas and written on the sky. But not in dreams. No, sir-ee!

Yeah! I mean, we all have commercials in our dreams, but you don't see us running off to buy brand-name merchandise at low low prices.

When I was a kid it was <10 minutes of ads per hour on TV and (I think) 12 minutes per hour on radio, roadside billboards were illegal in my county, and the local newspaper ads were mostly relegated to the back page and sunday inserts.

There were also no blatant ads pre-roll at movie theaters and productions got bad press for having product placement.
