Sorry but I cannot comment on the commercials as we do not see them in the studio. If they are the same ones, that is an issue you need to take up with the advertisers. They are the ones who decide how many spots to produce.

As for breaks... hey we are in the business of making money... and we do that by running spots. But you know how it works. In the old days on radio there used to be an FCC mandated limit of 18 commerical minutes per hour. But this is Cable and frankly, I am glad there are no more government mandates about that kind of thing.

Please do write to the sponsors if you feel they need more variety in the spot load. As for the comercial breaks, however, I am afraid they will continue in the name of capitalism! ;-)
