No - I really love the show - I'm up to Season 10 so I am a big fan - what I hate Hate HATE is the awful FOX adverts that are at the start and end of each, EACH!!! episode now. I buy the show so I don't have to sit through advertising of terrestrial television - I'd accept it at the start of a season but it's on all the time - almost 5 mins of it at the end until the next episode is auto-played - no more binge-watching I guess. The volume level of the adverts is mixed much higher so it feels like you're being bombarded. Won't be buying any more shows from FOX - stop doing it!!!
