Pulled the plug and have not looked back! Have our house TV's connected to our RV antenna and use NetFlix or Amazon to stream other shows. To show how much time commercials take of an hour, I recently started watching old -old JAG TV episodes from Amazon - 42 minutes of real programming - almost a third of the hour is devoted to commercials and breaks!
Have been weighing going to a cable or satellite provider as a 'new' customer but we travel and are away too much to make it work, so it is antenna and streaming for now.
My son returned home and he brought his Netflix with him. So we've been watching lots of shows and movies. I find it interesting that 30 minute shows actually run only 17 minutes. And 1 hour shows run only 45 minutes.
I have the entire set of MASH on DVD. Amazing how short each episode actually is when you remove the commercials!
And yes, I've noticed all the pop-ups on Satellite television. I find that really annoying too.
