"A new study concludes that viewers find TV more pleasurable when they watch commercials."

"Researchers at the NYU Stern School of Business found that viewers say they prefer to avoid advertisements yet rated their overall experience of watching a TV show higher when commercials were included...Watching TV (or eating a fine meal or listening to a favorite song) tends to be more enjoyable at the outset. The longer you do something, the less satisfaction it provides.

A break from the experience -- in the case of watching TV, sitting through a few commercials -- can be an interruption that helps refresh the novelty of the program."
