Who does Channel 9 think they are fooling? Their “Supersized” 2 hour episodes of “Top Gear” are the same 1 hour episodes that used to be on SBS, packed out to 2 hours with heaps of advertisements.

It’s hard to watch FTA these days with all the adds,unfortunately FOX is going down the same path too for most of their channels.
At least Movies & Sport are still add free [on Fox] for now.
Did you see the add for Discovery channel program about preventing Motorcycle accidents,preview looked good & it starts around July 20ish.?

I agree. It seems scarcely sensible to PAY for pay TV so that you can avoid the ads when they are getting crammed with ads too. The Indianapolis 500 broadcast on ESPN was appalling. I reckon I saw less than HALF of the actual race because of the constant ads.
I haven’t seen the Dicsovery cahnnel thing, I’ll keep an eye out for that, thanks.
