You cannot fast-forward through commercials on the VOD version, which defeats why most people record these shows in the first place. The commercials running on the VOD shows are long, frequent and annoying. YouTube TV has this DVR issue; PlayStation Vue does not. It depends on the deals these companies make with the networks.
