I know just what you mean about commercials. They are so annoying. And I do like being able to just..binge on a show when I'm in the mood for it. Last week I watched the 11th season DVD of The Simpsons over 4 days. When I got Bones back in May I watched the first season in about a day and a half - I didn't sleep much at that point. lol A week or two later I watched the second season in about the same amount of time.
I really like getting tv shows on DVD now.
