Yeah Commericals are getting ridiculous but at least you can FF. Some shows on our On-Demand Channels you cannot FF. PITA Glad this isn't one of them.

You shouldn't have any commercials on On-Demand. Just the show.

That sucks, man. Sorry to hear that. Charter will occasionally put a 10 second ad at the beginning of an On-Demand movie, but never on TV shows.

Best. Show. Ever.

Rick and Daryl are bada sses and have turned into a good team. The prison makes me nervous though.

We need more Michone too. And can't wait for the Woodbury/Governor storylines to kick in.

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

Yeah same here with Brighthouse. Guess that's the price you pay with popularity. Used to FF through a short 10-20 second clip then back to show not anymore.

I work at a maximum security psychiatric hospital, and I wonder to myself if walkers were actually out lurking around, would I be trying to get into my facility, lol!

Also, American Horror Story is all about an asylum this season, so I can relate to both storylines!

Die hard fan love the show. The only thing that bothers me is all the perfect head shots LOL. LIke the end of season two and they are driving around hanging out the window of the cars and nailing perfect head shots the whole time Also I love Hershel's 30 round shotgun LOL. Other than that the show is awesome!!! Oh and Daryl is my fav with Rick a close second. Nice to see Rick as a BAMF now!!
