That's actually called "focus groups" in the biz and they are used 
heavily to justify many lame and many great marketing/product ideas. 
These focus groups are often poked at by many including the Simpson, 
King of the Hill and even a few commercials that are running.

The number of people is smaller, but the idea behind a focus group is 
that, usually, the people actually sample the product or commercial, 
often among other things that are similar. So in addition to 
answering poll-type questions, the users actions, facial expressions, 
and body language are also observed; in theory, this makes the 
results of the focus group more honest and accurate than even 
"scientific" polls.

In the end, only time and consumer response will tell the tale...
