remembering when cable television didn't have advertisements
I thought this was a facetious comment, but you're right https://www.nytimes.com/1981/07/26/arts/will-cable-tv-be-invaded-by-commercials.html
My memories go as far back to when a full commercial block was 60 seconds and only happened once in the middle of a movie and usually around once per hour on regular tv.
