Is there a way to block certain commercials? Especially on Pluto?

What is it with all the gay commercials and the commercial celebrating pubic hair?   It is totally unnecessary and not something my kids need to see.   If there is not a way to block, I suppose PLUTO and any other channel carrying this garbage will be deleted.   I wonder if I would have the same issue on FireTV?

Odds are, changing devices will have no effect. Most, if not all ads, on most services are 100% under the control of the service. Complain to Pluto.

Should also mention that some ads may not even be under the control of Pluto, but are controlled, at least in part, by the channel owner.

Just as a side note, Pluto is owned by Paramount Global.

I am SO sick of watching gay commercials.

I don’t want to watch heterosexuals make out on TV…I don’t want to watch 2 guys making out either! I’m so sick of hearing about “women pooping, HIV, pubic hair & how sexy fat is”. This PC **bleep** is outta control!
