Commercials

Somehow, people are geting a little too rigid with cutting the commercials out of The Daily Show before releasing it to BT.
They don't even leave Jon's "We'll be right back" in there. Come on, now you're REALLY overdoing it =_=
But yesterday's show was once again GREAT. And it looks like Jon's getting better (he announced he has a cold two days ago, poor sweetie) :D

BTW, important question for you Americans: Are there more commercial breaks over there than there are here? I noticed that TDS gets interrupted every ten minutes or so. How long is such a commercial break?
(We get about six or seven minutes, and there's at least 20 minutes between them, sometimes more)
I think I heard Japan gets a lot of them, too...

The Colbert Report is 30 minutes and gets interrupted twice.. So yeah, breaks every 10-15 minutes is about right. As for length, I know that with cartoons that come in 2 episodes, each is 11 minutes long, and there's one commercial break between them so that's 8 minutes left.. which includes the theme song, commercials, and credits. So, maybe 7 minutes per break? I don't watch a lot of TV but that's what I can figure :P
