When watching TV shows on xfinity.com there are waaay too many ads. It's very irritating. Can you please reduce the ads to one at a time?
Thank you.

It's no different than watching regular TV. Why do you think streaming should be different? The only annoying thing about most streaming commercials is that they tend to be too repetitive, seeing the same ad over and over and over and over.

The concern is not "home networking" help related................ Thread moved here to the proper help section for assistance.

Good morning, @ocguinn, and thanks for reaching out through our online platform with your playback concerns when watching TV online! I can understand how you feel about those commercials- I feel that way about live TV all the time! I've gotten to the point of using the DVR to record my shows so that I can fast forward through the commercials.
While I would love to see the ads reduced to just one at a time (and even less frequent!), advertising dollars are still required to operate, so I don't see those commercials going anywhere. We do appreciate your feedback, and always want to hear your thoughts and concerns. For today, is there anything else we can help with? -Macey

Xfinity has more commercials than TV (meaning the TV that was FREE when we just turned the TV on...). We now pay enormous amounts of money to Xfinity, and therefore we expect better service. I just counted 30+ commercials during a 43 minute show streaming on Xfinity, most of them repeated 4 times each. It's just awful and I'm looking for ways to shift away from Xfinity because of it.
