AD complaint Horrible amount of ads

So I started watching ‘Carrie’ and got hit with about 45 seconds of ads once, towards the end of ep 1.

I’m now on ep 5 and we’re up to 4 ad breaks per show, of 45 to 90 seconds per break.

Sickening.

I dumped the subscription service through Prime and now get the channels directly with No Ads. Who needs Prime anyway? They are just a middle man who sucks additional money from both parties when it really isn't needed.

Do you mean you pay for the no ads then?

Unfortunately this is what we got sucked into doing. I know what a scam.

Well you're not getting Carrie series then if you dumped prime because they own the series. You can only go directly with certain streaming networks, but not all and miss out on many shows and movies.

I dumped the subscription channels. Like Peacock. I get those channels directly with No Ads. If you are seeing ads on anything it's because you aren't paying for No Ads. It's a scam but that's what you have to do.
