Have you ever SEEN how many advertisements are on those channels?

I was curious so I timed an hour of DIY just for kicks. It’s a little tricky, since the shows on channels like this repeat themselves a lot, but basically I came up with 12 minutes of commercials/filler per 30 minutes of programming. I imagine that A&E, TLC, History, etc are basically the same.
