‘Adverts turns TV viewers off’
Recently fans of top soaps, dramas and reality shows in the USA have started to get angry
about the number and frequency of the adverts in the middle of the programmes. Sometimes
it seems that the adverts are more important than the programmes themselves. For example,
American dramas aren’t as long as they were in the past. Nowadays in the US, an ‘hour-long’
drama lasts about 40 minutes (in the 1980s they lasted 48 minutes). The rest is adverts.
Or, in other words, for every two minutes of programme there’s one minute of adverts.
The ABC channels had slightly more adverts than other channels. But recently they’ve
changed … and what they do now is even worse than before! Before, all their dramas had four
sections. But now ABC tells producers to separate each programme into six sections. Usually
the first section is approximately ten minutes long. Then they have the first break. When
people have watched a programme for ten minutes, it’s much less probable that they will stop
watching or change channels. But then, in the next 45 minutes, there are four commercial
breaks. Each break is about three and a half minutes long.
All of this makes it much more difficult for writers of dramas to write good stories.
Quiet scenes make no impact because there are more and more adverts and the adverts
are longer and longer. ‘It’s OK for game shows or more exciting adventure series,’ says
American TV producer David Kelley. ‘But for programmes that don’t depend on violence
or melodramatic scenes, it’s more difficult to make a story with six sections than to make
one with four. The only thing you can do is be more aggressive, either with the music
or the visual impact, just to attract people’s attention after the adverts.’
