In what universe do ads, no matter how "relevant and engaging", ever not detract from the overall experience?
I've been watching Monk recently, without ads, and it's very interesting how television shows used to be written and edited for commercials. It's dead obvious where the commercials used to be, and even that detracts from the overall experience.
Some shows we've watched spend their time "recapping" after the 'ad breaks", playing same scenes we just saw. Drives me nuts, wastes my time and feels so dated.
Ahhh, I suffer from this with old animes!
I'm gonna be king of the recaps! ๐
