A "Commercial Break" is a short pause in a television program or radio broadcast during which advertisements are shown or played. These breaks allow companies to promote their products or services to viewers or listeners. Commercial breaks typically occur at regular intervals and can vary in length, often lasting from 30 seconds to a few minutes. During a commercial break, viewers may see a variety of ads, including those for consumer goods, food and beverages, or entertainment. Advertisers use these breaks to reach a wide audience, hoping to influence consumer behavior and increase sales.
