YES,YOU ARE SEEING MORE COMMERCIALS THAN EVER BEFORE
Toni Fitzgerald 

Does it seem like those commercial breaks between shows are getting longer? Well, it’s not your imagination. Ad loads, or the amount of commercials shown per hour on television, are at or approaching all-time highs across a slew of broadcast and cable networks. And they may rise further as ratings continue their long, slow decline across all of traditional TV.

 

 

 

 My take....not only are there more of them....but in the past at least some of them were clever and/or funny.....now they are nothing but annoying....all those pharmacuetials, lawyers, cars, insurance commercials...and now the trend seems to be people sitting on toilets....the Captain Obvious commercial with the couple in the bathroom is the latest...I know we all have to go, but these commercials are just coarse and crass.....
