>>4034330Not really.There are sponsor-commercials when nothing is happening. We have the national TV station (ČT - Česká Televize), literally "Czech Television" that is (if I recall correctly) funded by taxes. There are next to no commercials, they only play them mid-breaks or they fill the time by interesting snippets of Czech olympic history or educational videos about more interesting, niche sports like bobsledding or acrobatic skiing. I love it and appreciate it greatly.
