I just watched an episode (Murder, Country Style). In the middle there was a 5-6 minute commercial break followed by 2 minutes of show, followed by even more commercials. Jeez.

I saw the same show and I, too, was appalled. One of the things I do is pause the show when I use the restroom, etc. That way I can FF past the adds. I know that isn't too much consolation but it's the best I can do. 

I shouldn't conplain. I TiVo it ... so I can fast forward through the commercials. But it's challenging that I need to do it AGAIN after just 2 minutes of show.

When Medicare enrollment time is due they really seem to make time, but not just MEtv, all the retro channels sell out. Wonder if they just hack the shows up or just shorten up other spots.
At least the don't speed up the intro and end credits anymore on MeTV.
