Whatever the ratio, playing the show for like 5 minutes then breaking, even if its only for 2 minutes, is annoying, it also seems like theres more commercial than show.....

1. its hard to get really into a show when the clips only last a couple minutes.
2. perseption is everything, people trying to get into it new may not continue if its annoying and some regulars wont watch it till it comes out on netflix or something

the fewer viewers during original cast the more likely it is to get canceled...rememeber SGU?

oh and did I mention its just plain annoying?


Im all for commercials, without them we wouldnt have the TV we do, or we would be paying out the nose for it.....but I would rather have 20 minutes of show with a 6 minute commercial break than constantly having to wade through them
