Usa is responsible for some of the best tv shows known to man, and will always be the best at making great tv but.... The tv channels ruin it.

Commercial breaks every 5minutes? Smh. Just as youre getting into the show you get a commercial, then they have a weird thing where they cut to a break newr the end of the show, only to come back show 3more minutes of the show then credits smh.

Also only hbo allowed to have curse words? Wtf?

Got to the point where i dont even turn the tv on any more and stream everything

The commercials bring in the money which increases the budget which allows for the dope tv shows mostly coming from America. It's a necessary evil.

You right about the censorship though. Americas moral compass makes no sense.

They do this so the next show will come on as soon as the previous show ends, so you'll keep watching and not change the channel during a commercial break.

it's the same in Oz, fukking ads every few mins, TERRIBLE shows and to top it off we only have about 15 channels on free to air tv and that's only happened in the last few years because of the switch to digital tv. a few years ago they started doing this "fast tracked" bullshyt where supposedly we get an episode "hours after the US" but in reality it's at least a few days if not weeks after the show originally aired in USA. our pay tv/cable etc is just as bad how the fukk you gonna make us pay for the shows then put the same fukking ads that are in the free to air shyt :wtf: i download everything that's worth watching these days anyway, some stuff we still watch an telly but only if it's an aussie show and they are hard to find to d/l sometimes.
