      I’m on holiday in Greece, and I decided to put the TV on the first channel (Ant1) while I sit down for dinner. It’s been over five minutes, I’ve almost finished eating, and the adverts are still on. What are public TV advert breaks like in your country?

      I don’t watch TV for like 20 years now because of this. Renting before, streaming now.

    3. I stopped watching commercial tv somewhere around 2016. I pick and choose what to watch without ads.

    4. Try watching US TV, at least twice the ads as compared to Germany

      I moved into my current rent what, 15 years ago? There was no TV, I couldn’t bring my own, and so I ended up not watching TV ever since. I didn’t miss it then, don’t miss it now (it’s only gotten about a thousand times worse, anyway).

      I’ve been making up for it with Youtube, though πŸ˜€ (with adblockers so still no ads)

      YouTube is the same, and Amaxon Prime is starting with adverts.

      It’s 2025. On-demand streaming exists. Leave TV and its ads in the 00s where they belongs.

      Life is to short to watch all those ads.

      And when they do the same over and over again… it hurts.

      Just don’t watch is a good plan.

      Stopped watching tv since moving out from my parents 7 years ago. Now when i think about it, not a singel friend i know of watches/has traditional TV channels.

      The fact that TV adverts still work (apparently, as they are still there and quite expensive) means that there are people out there sitting through them. I don’t get that. Who would do that? How can you get immersed in anything if you have 8 minutes of adverts every 10 minutes or so? The only explanation I can find is that there are people who like watching adverts, which is very hard to believe.

      I disconnected my tv from cable 20 years ago, and i was right

    12. Ahahah people here being offended by 7 min.
      In Portugal we have 17min long adverts break. Just stop watching tv

    13. EU_FreeWorld on

      Around 2 decades ago there was much, much, less ads. Like 3 times less ?

      There are limits in public tv in croatia so usually adverts ate in between programs, extremely rarely during the show . On commercial tv there are many, have limited time but are long and do tend to interrupt programme.
      Why i watch tv if im not a boomer – I actually like not living in a bubble and TV random as it is – manages to surprise me, unlike Netflix for instance..

      not in germany: 20 minutes of advertising per day and not after 8 p.m. or on sundays/public holidays – ard, zdf and dlf is all you need.

      “across Europe”?

      Have you watched TV in any other country? It’s exactly the same thing. Broadcast TV is a dead concept
