We got rid of tv at least 15 years ago, and our connectivity is poor so no streaming anything here. We are better for it. The news and ads were brain poison.

thanks for answering. I was curious so did a bit of reading and talked to a couple of people. It’s a bit more nuanced than “politically correct” tho. I don’t want to hijack this thread so I’ll go away. I wanted to thank you for your reply.

A friend ( of over 30 years) informed me that she was tired of trying to wake me up!

We watch MLB so we can see all the Yankees games. There is a commercial for an AB & B or something like that, maybe a timeshare but I get so annoyed by the constant commercials. A guy sings and sounds like Kermit the Frog. I love the puppet but this guy sends me over the edge lol.
Another one is for those bottles of pills that give you a zillion fruits and veggies for an ungodly amount of money. I've read reviews and people say they spend all their money on advertising and not much on the product.
I love Netflix and Prime- no commercials!!!
