what is it with verizon

maybe its every network but since i've got verizon, for what ever damn reason on mostly all the channels commercials randomly pop on during the middle of a show.

sounds like problem with ad-insertion systems (locally). i'd give a call.

Haven't seen that, but I do notice they often cut off a few seconds of either the end on beginning of surrounding ads. The problem seems to have gotten worse as they've expanded the ads to more and more channels. For the first few months I didn't see any local/FiOS inserted ad, then just one or two, but lately they have been spreading like a virus.

Jon, it's *not* just you. I'm not even a FIOS customer, but there have been ad-insertion issues with VZ ads, Comcast ads, etc. for a while now (however, it *has* gotten worse since VZ started their current promo blitz, and Comcast has started their response). I have Comcast for TV and HSI (and VZ for phone). I'm thinking that the ad-intertion issues are unrelated.
