Don\'t you guys ever tire of commerical breaks?? I hate them. It seems there are commercial breaks every 5-10 mins in American TV shows and it\'s amazing there is actually any time left for real content. Makes me glad most the major TV stations here don\'t have commercial breaks or - those who does - send them between the shows. There are a couple of stations that send them every 15 mins tho, and I hate it when I want to watch stuff on them. Commerical breaks in the programmes = teh evil! :evil: :evil: :evil:

mtv uk is the worst, i used to like mtv, but i hat it now, for a hour show, you get at least 20 mins adverts, 30 mins of talking from a crap unfunny, unoriginal, doing the same jokes as 3 years ago ( richard blackwood) and 10 mins of crappy pop music

yup, our commercials are rather rediculous and as kopking stated, mtv here, the commercials last like 5 minutes!!!

Get a TiVo. Haven\'t watched commercials since January when I bought it.

How does TiVo work? I\'ve always wondered... for like LIVE programs....

It\'s always recording. You can pause anything. There are 8 minutes of commercials in a half hour program. If I wait until 8:08 I can watch the show and be cought up by 8:30 and I saw no commercials.

And dont forget the ability to "Season Pass" shows. You pick to record something once and it will record it for as long as you would like--even re-runs. Tivo is my religion. You should see what it does to "Celebrity Boxing".
