Anybody else sick of this?

Everytime I am watching something, especially on FX, they broadcast the commercials like +10db over the actually programming, so I am stuck playing video games with my tv remote volume knob.

It doesnt make me want to buy the crappy corolla, or eat Cheerios , it just makes me want to throw the controller through the screen.

Its the reverse for our local ABC syndicate. They turn the commercials down, so when you turn it up to hear what's going on, the program is loud as fack.
