Bypass commercials for most Roku channels

With Roku channels getting stupider with the amount of commercials, the 10 mins of program and 4 mins of commercials, I found a bypass for most channels I watch, when the commercials exceed 3, as in 4-10, yes some have 10 commercials, it might be a slight inconvenience, but when the channel goes to commercial, "exit to home scree, return to channel, return to movie", most times it cuts the commercials in half, or in some cases bypasses them, and the movie returns to regular length, a couple of channels I exit a second time when another set of commercials come up. Again I understand commercials, Roku is free, but the amount of commercials on most channels take the joy away from watching a movie. The Roku channel is one of the worst. Its barely watchable.

    I wouldnt even be upset about it if the comercials were edited properly but they take words from the show at random points of the show and cut and paste them to create sentence some words sounds like question in middle of unfinished sentence and than there are volume issues half of comercial has one volume level than all of a sudden volume goes up by 8 pts scaring the **bleep** out of anyone not ready for it ill give example " we are lincoln log masters we work with (video cut) big equipment? Heavy machines and we are the only company certified by lincoln log etc" big equipment litteraly sounds like they asking someone are you sure its big? Editing team behind their comercials is highschool interns with zero experience or ear for comercials i guess everyone has to start somewhere . Thank god im not paying for it cause i would not pay for this garbage 2 sets of comercials within 10 min of show and each set of comer ials repeats twice back to back " we will forward your concern to the designated team" sure you will 😂
