[Marshall V. Daut]

A little off-topic, but still related to this thread: Is it just my perception or have networks like Antenna TV, THIS, and ME TV been cutting down program length recently and inserting more commercials? I could have sworn that now some of my favorite scenes are missing from Perry Mason and other shows that were included last time they ran on these networks. I don't include TVLAND in this list because that network has always been more commercials than program. "We interrupt this commercial to bring you a program" should be their motto. As an avid re-run watcher from the "old days" (I watch NOTHING new on TV except documentaries!), I know where scenes have been deleted from these old favorites just to add another Preparation H and feminine hygiene product commercial, of which I will be buying none. Grumble, grumble, grumble..
