Advantages: Cartoons were OK when showing

Disadvantages: Too many adverts

I recently upgraded to digital telvision and as part of my package get the Cartoon Network. Being thirty-something I've not had much call to watch it apart from catching the odd bit while changing channels.

Yesterday however my sister came to stay along with her 5 year old daughter. Looking for something to keep her happy for 15 minutes or so, until it was time for bed, I suggested the Cartoon Network.

We settled down to watch just as one cartoon was finishing and it went to an advert break.
About four minutes later, back it went to Looney Tunes which was OK for as long as it lasted, say about five minutes. Good, time for another cartoon we thought. Nope, time for some more adverts, all of which seemed designed to get the kids to badger the parents to buy something.

Eventually the next Looney Tune came on, just as it was time for bed, with a not surprising reaction from a 5 year old that didn't particlarly want to watch one cartoon and loads of adverts.

As I say I'm not a Cartoon Network regular and if this opinion is unrepresentative of the usual adverts breaks I am sorry, but you would have thought the programme planners would reaise that patience is not the most abundant quality of children in general.
