Why do commercials repeat while streaming?

185 views

When I watch cable TV I never see the same commercial twice in a row. When I watch TV via streaming services it’s really common to get the same commercial 2, 3 or maybe even 4 times in a row. Why does this happen?

OP, I agree it’s silly.

If I was an advertiser I might value repetition for a viewer showing the same ad again during the same show but I would assign negative value to playing the ad back to back.

It’s more likely to trigger animosity than good will.
