Can we stop horror ads on family shows?

Looooong time Roku user, just started watching some shows on Roku Channel... Why is seemingly every ad, for a shoe I want to watch with my kid, Great American Baking Show, just scary horror movie ads??? Middle of the day, family friendly show, I've never once even watched a horror movie on any Roku device. Probably won't watch their channel again now. Real miss.
