Some time ago i found a old VHS of karate kid that i recorded. That was on free open tv and the commercials were super short. And i think two for the whole movie.
I downloaded some trash tv like 60 day fiancee, and it was accidentally an episode where they left the commercials in. That was the most insane shit i have ever seen. They streched a 45min show into a 1 1/2 hour show. With the same pharma commercials over and over all the goddamn time and then the recap after every commercial. This shit has to rot your brain in some capacity.
The worst are reality show “result” episodes. Seriously, you’re doing a two hour special with extra ads, all about recaps, when the only goal is to announce who won last week?
I’ve had the same thoughts about people who watch free to air TV. Between the same set of ads every ad break, and the frankly dubious quality of the programming, it has to be contributing to some type of cognitive decline.

My parents watch this tripe on DirecTV. I can confirm the cognitive decline theory with direct evidence.
