Annoying TV Commercials

**Karen** · 05-30-2006, 09:17 AM

We *love* our DVR - digital video recorder - it was an option with our cable tv. We no longer see any commercials at all - we can just hit the "30-second skip" button, and it jumps right over them. So I am not even familiar with many of the commercials mentioned. Yay!

I think we pay an extra $9 a month on our cable bill - worth every single penny, as it also records shows right even if the network moves around when it is on the air!

Really?? I thought they cost way more. We will definetly look into that!! Thanks!

Oh, and one more thing .... I hate when they start blabbering about what's on tomorrow, before the film is finished, they certainly don't have any respect for the credits, and sometimes they run them so fast, theymay as well not run them at all, you have NO chance to read anything. If you have seen a film, or another good programme, I like to sit and digest it and see who did what. What's the hurry?? People are stressed enough as it is!!

Btw, if you're interested, these are the channels we can watch in Denmark: http://tv.tv2.dk/tv/?Region=1&Katego...orsidedropdown

If you click where it says "Danske", you can also choose to see what we can view from other countries.

I rarely see a program when it is aired, so thankfully we have a DVR like Karen and Paul, and we just Fast Forward right through those commercials. I never see commercials and if I do, I guess I'm not paying any attention to them! LOL!!
