Not long after the introduction of television itself, television commercials became a tool for advertising products and services. The very first television advertisement appeared on July 1, 1941 for a Bulova watch. Other companies like Gimballs department store and Firestone tires followed Bulovas example shortly thereafter. These advertisements induce others to use a product/service which increases the sales and networks begin charging more money for the advertising spots, thus maximizing profits. Television commercials can be classified into the following three types: humorous, endorsements, and as sexually appealing.

Then there are specific commercials to late night Television. There are three primary late-night television advertisements; those informing you on a subject, those selling you a product, and those selling you on a product (not to be confused with those selling you a product).
This is the only information dealing with classification that I see in your essay.

"There are three primary late-night television advertisements; those informing you on a subject, those selling you a product, and those selling you on a product (not to be confused with those selling you a product). "

I suggest you use that as your thesis and develop your essay from there.
Yes that is what I thought but apparently he had concerns with it thank you
The essay is supposed to be on Advertisements, then we have to narrow it. I have narrowed it to TV advertisements on cars. I was thinking of TV advertisements appeal in the following ways: accessibility, image changing and ???. accessibility would be those advertisements that say you don't need good credit, you will have low monthly payments, etc. The style changing would be the corvettes that change you into a cool free dude, or the van that makes you the best mommy, etc. I am struggling with the third category (maybe utility) like the truck for deliveries etc, but not sure how to incorporate this and also want to make sure these are good categories...Pls. help my clock is ticking and I am stressing need to get the whole paper written by tommorrow.....
