    TV adverts

    Is it me or are the tv adverts coming quicker and lasting longer too, and its the same ones over and over again, or am I watching too much tv?

    I was thinking exactly the same thing. Every commercial break the same. So annoying when trying to watch a movie….especially when you switch over to avoid the adverts and forget to tune back in to your original program.

    Wouldn't know, I rarely watch TV... What I do watch gets recorded on my Tivo for me to watch at my convenience.... which means I fast forward the ads.

    Some are funny...like the one where the TV falls off the wall.

    Otherwise...coffee-making time or use the mute button.

    Sadly, my recorder died.
