I remember years (& years & years ago) when commercials came on every 15 minutes & you could set your clock by them. These days most of them make me either feel guilty (like I’m not taking care of myself like I should, or “they” say I should anyway) or glad I don’t have to decide to take one of the meds they’re advertising that have that looong list of side-effects ending in “possible death.” I like the funny ones, too! : )

They’re bringing back some of the good Geico commercials….hump day. I don’t mind entertaining ads.

When we first had commercial free shows almost everyone were glad, until we had to go to the bathroom.

hubby used to use commercial breaks to know when to check the grill when he cooked during the summer.

I think they are approaching a 50/50 split between ads and show. It’s like they WANT us to record the shows and skip the ads.

Makes you wonder if some of those shows are worth watching.. by the time the commercial is over I have forgotten the plot

The thing about streaming through my Roku – There is a pause button, a rewind function, and, in most cases, no commercials.

I have noticed that there is a short part of a show in-between the many long commercials.

The lack of car insurance is often related to the need for adult diapers…
