  • Lost a subscriber due to ads

    I got 8 commercials in one Single Episode plus the Sponsor Intro at the beginning. To complete this, you get the worst, cheap and low Budget commercials you can think of.

    Snorting in your ear to Sell nose Spray, Consider being a Pilot (?!), install a new heater to your Home and other crap.

    I am sorry but you lost a subscriber due to this.
