OK. But it did make me yell and throw things at the TV.

That sounds like me during Chiefs games about 10 years ago, back before all the losing burned the "caring" out of me.

Are you kidding? I turned that episode off because I was sure she was the perpetrator.

I wish they did that on BBC America. Sucks to be watching Life on Mars or Robin Hood and having commercial breaks wedged into weird spots in the drama. Same goes for Dr. Who on SciFi.

They took my BBC America away.:deevee:

I miss my Top Gear and Gordon Ramsey.

I have a better idea. Make all the commercials come on the last ten minutes of the hour. I will know ahead of time to hit the mute button to save my distaste for another Target commercial.

I thought they'd taken mine away, too, but it turns out they just moved it to channel 200-something.

fucking Time Warner.

This is a pretty safe bet on Fox's part by getting some publicity for programs nobody has even heard of. Pretty much all network commercials are pimping other shows for that network. Fox is one of the worst offenders. Nothing that says they can't use this gimmick to bring in a fanbase and then go right back to business as usual. I would be very surprised if they used this strategy as an overall network decision.
