It's stunning how difficult it is to watch Cable TV after watching streaming services for a while.
It's hard to believe there was a time that people consumed this many commercials, and didn't think anything of it.

I also think that ads are one of those things that you accept until having experienced an ad-free alternative.
I agree that the format is stale, but for some, it's a good form of "background noise"; my wife loves to have the TV on even if she isn't watching it, while reading, studying, etc.
There's also no other real choice if you want live content (primarily for sports). You still need access to your local affiliate channels to watch this content, and for some, an antenna is not good enough or even an option at all.
