Red Zone officially adding full commercials



I am not sure if I have ever seen an organization purposefully remove the best feature from a product.

Excited to see this blow up in Disney's face.

Sadly there are still way too many people that will just keep going along with it.

Damn ESPN couldn't even go 1 week of football before fricking jt up.

I'm not as crazy about RZ as some. I prefer the game mix. But this is sad. Another good thing gone. Killed by that fricking mouse.

Also RZ is extra, if if you get the Ticket. So why the frick are they running commercials?

Exactly, this was the whole premise of the show, which tied into its popularity, viewership in my opinion.

Its popularity is that you can keep up with your fantasy teams all in one spot and see the action around the league in one spot.

I’m sure some people liked that it was commercial free but adding commercials isn’t going to make it go from 1m viewers down to 100k. I sure hope it does and Disney gets fricked but reality is that’s not going to happen.

there’s tons of dead time for commercials

I don’t recall any weeks last year where this was true. There was usually always at least one game that they could show some action.

I think people are really overvaluing the commercial free aspect in the hierarchy of popularity.

I think you undervalue not having “WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER” or whatever asinine ad of the day blasted into your face intermittently for seven hours.

That may be it. I usually watch first window then just tune into a couple games after.

But that isn’t going to stop many people I bet. People didn’t watch it because “no commercials” they watched for one easy spot to keep up with fantasy and the games going on and that’s not changing.

Welp. It's been a good run. Had it for as many years as I can remembers. I'm out.
