I've seen many devices that mute the sound and I seem to remember one that substituted music during the commercials. Using your smartphone during the commercials is only a distraction and not a real solution. I notice some sports bars have a service called TAIV that apparently replaces commercials with something else. Please make some comments!

There’s an easy way: give up watching television stations with advertising. I only watch Netflix and Amazon Prime. Yes, that means no sports and no news. Perhaps that’s why I am so calm. This also saves me a LOT of money. In this entire year, I’ve only seen two political ads on television: for and against legalizing marijuana in Florida, seen at a doctor’s office. I voted no.
