“I am no avid fan, but have turned it on once or twice... I get what seems like 5 minutes of actual competition followed by what seems 5-8 minutes of commercials.”
This is why I stopped watching all TV many years ago.
I get what seems like 5 minutes of actual competition followed by what seems 5-8 minutes of commercials.

Most TV is a string of commercials interspersed with brief segments of content. The networks and their sponsors are laughing their asses off at the stupidity of the public.
My wife watches television, but I don’t. Once in a while, she will call out that there is movie on that she knows I like, and asks if I want to watch it.
Sometimes I do, until it hits the first commercial. Then, if I was enjoying watching it, I simply rent it.
I can’t stomach television at all. Haven’t watched since 1995-1998 sometime.
