OT: Thanks CRTC

[Judge Fudge]

for allowing the super bowl ads to air next year (if Bell Media allows it). If not 2017(Bell has no choice).

I record for at least 1 hour before watching so I don't have to even watch ads.

Or half time.

Makes no nevermind to me.

The ads suck these days anyway. We missed the golden age of Office Linebackers (I still piss myself to those).

CRTC to allow U.S. Super Bowl commercials starting in 2017 - Business - CBC News

"But simsub has also been lucrative for television stations, to the tune of $250 million a year to the industry as a whole. So the CRTC threw local affiliates a bone in making its decision on Thursday — local affiliates will still be allowed to simultaneously substitute advertising, but specialty channels (like Bell-owned TSN, which will show Sunday's game) will be banned from doing so."

In short, Bell will simply move the Super Bowl back to CTV and still show their own ads.
