The very odd practice of airing the same commercial twice, or two commercials advertising the same product, in the same commercial break. There are four common variations of this: Commercial A airs twice in a row. Commercial A airs, followed by Commercial B, after which Commercial A airs again. Commercial A1 airs, with Commercial A2 popping up sometime in the same break. While both ads are different, what they advertise is exactly the same. Sometimes two or more ads are actually part of the same ad spot, and thus will always run consecutively. Often occurs if there is a continuity in the two spots. Commercial A airs as the last commercial of the break. Then, before the actual action begins for the show, the sponsors are listed in reverse order, meaning Commercial A's company goes first. Seen often in sports. There are many possible reasons for this trope. In the case of traditional advertising, the repetition is probably to make it stick in your mind. (Even if it's annoying, it still makes you think about them more.) Alternately, the station has a quota of how many times a particular commercial has to be shown in a given month and they are forced to continually play it near the end of the month in order to make that quota. In the case of an online video, it's more likely that the site only has a single advertiser at the moment. This also happens on sites that have commercial breaks in their videos. Because the site can only contract so many companies that want to advertise on these breaks, it means that they play the same few commercials over and over and over. If a catchphrase or other verbiage is constantly repeated within the ad, that's Broken Record. |

The Xbox Live Arcade game based off 1 vs. 100 only had a handful of sponsors and a few instructional videos by host Chris Cashman to fill ad breaks. They quickly get unbearable, and to make it worse, the sound for them still plays if you have the Xbox music streaming. | |

FOX's playoff baseball coverage became famous for this around the middle of the 2000s. The network would relentlessly flog its upcoming shows with commercials that usually centered around dramatic line readings. The short-lived shows "Girls Club" and "Skin" have earned running joke status with baseball fans ("His father is the district attorney!"). House was also promoted in this way ("You're risking a patient's life!"). | |

Nickelodeon does this a lot for any big event. Perhaps the worst offender was the ads for their broadcast of The SpongeBob Musical, which took every single ad slot and had its ads start a week before the actual event, when most ads for new Nickelodeon shows or specials only showed up the day of said event. Complaining about the frequency of the ads became a meme among the animation community. | |

During the November 23, 2020 airing of Inside Out, this trope happened a few times: Ads for Target and Kohl's Black Friday sales aired during every commercial break. During one ad break, the same Wal-Mart ad started and began the same ad break. On Cablevision/Altice, an ad for Saint Joseph's College always showed up during the local slot. |

Before either of these, they liked playing ads for King Games, who created Candy Crush Saga, every break. The same thing happened on CBS' Dream Team block during winter of 2014, where sometimes, the ads would not only play every break, but they would sometimes have two different King Games ads during each break, or two played in a row. | |

During the summer in the Tri-State area you can expect to see ads for local theme parks like Splish Splash and Adventureland overwritten by Cablevision during the middle of ad breaks. On the premiere of the "Here Come The Classic Yo-Kai!" episode of Yo Kai Watch, the former ad played three times, with one of those instances being two airings of the ads sandwiched between an Neutrogena commercial. | |

Whenever Twitch plays ads, there's a good chance it will just play one ad, over and over again, for as long as they feel is necessary before taking you to the stream/VOD you're trying to watch, which is incredibly annoying. One more incentive to fork over the cash for Twitch Turbo, perhaps? Alternatively, you can exploit a glitch by repeatedly using the Report Playback Issue feature and selecting the ad played too many times, for which ads may go away. | |

The American Advisors Group (AAG) was also notorious for this as well. Starting in August 2016, they had a series of ads that featured actor Tom Selleck of Magnum, P.I. fame. Like the ASPCA ads, they were infomercial length and were difficult to escape. They largely died down in the early 2020s. | |

During one episode of the Steve Harvey Family Feud on GSN in February 2015, an ad for Activia yogurt was shown twice in a row. On another episode, an ad for Inside Out that said it was the number one family film in America played every break. Before either of these, they liked playing ads for King Games, who created Candy Crush Saga, every break. The same thing happened on CBS' Dream Team block during winter of 2014, where sometimes, the ads would not only play every break, but they would sometimes have two different King Games ads during each break, or two played in a row.

A big example of this in the New York/Tri-State area is the Kars4Kids ad, with what possibly is the most annoying jingle of all time. On any given station, it would either play once every break or once every other break. The ads are infamous enough to have become a meme referenced by other shows (such as a Will & Grace episode featuring an expy known as "Trucks4Tykes", and an episode of The Good Place where it is portrayed as being the "anthem" of the Bad Place). It was played on 770 WABC so much that even Don Imus got mad about it on a hot mic during a commercial break. | |

When the Frozen musical opened on Broadway, Disney wanted to make sure that people who lived near New York City knew that it existed. Ads would always play in the local spot on New York City channels, and on syndicated and/or local programming such as The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Dr. Phil and Eyewitness News, the ad would play on every single break. It even got to the point where Disney decided to do radio commercials for the show that played as frequently as the TV spots did, with said ads having been played since September of 2017, months before the show even opened! | |

During showings of Groundhog Day on TV, it is common to show the same commercial six times in a row for every ad break, or have every ad break consist of the same six commercials. (If you haven't seen the movie, just read up on the trope named after the film to understand.) The AMC repeat marathon in 2023 also played the same bumper for the film three times in a row. | |

February 2015 and March 2015 brought us tons of Doraemon: Nobita and The Space Heroes tie-in ads in between shows and sometimes during shows. Tribe Cool Crew played tons of Doraemon ads during its ad breaks. Most of the ads had adults recalling memories of the show from when they were kids. Speaking of Tribe Cool Crew, this ad for a instant milk powder called Senobikku played during every single episode. Sometimes, the ad would play in between Tribe Cool Crew and the next show, Ressha Sentai ToQger. |

A commercial for one of the Spy Kids movies (either the third or fourth one) would air twice in a row every single time, at least on some Canadian TV channels. The fact that it started with a montage of kids screaming "Spy Kids! Spy Kids!" didn't help. | |

An in-universe example occurs in the Free Spirit comic "I Love Bread". On the retro TV show app Jessie watches, this Weight Watchers ad starring Oprah Winfrey keeps interrupting the Cagney & Lacey episode she tries to watch. Then, as if that weren't bad enough, the ad loops on all the in-flight TVs and even the screen in the cabin as a result of Winnie's magic. | |

Around 2001, it was very common to see the Between the Lions "Between the Shows" promos on PBS' national feed. They usually came on after every other show, and sometimes played on two shows in a row. | |

Shortly after The Last Airbender came out, Nickelodeon's advertising blocks became flooded with advertisements for said movie and its tie-in merchandise - perhaps resulting in Hype Aversion for many viewers. (Considering the movie's general reception, however, this could be a good thing.) | |

In December of 2017 during most family-aimed shows or specials on broadcast TV note such as the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and holiday specials such as the Peanuts ones in the New York Tri-State area, there was a high chance that you would see this ad for The Spongebob Musical as one of the commercials. Flagship NBC affiliate WNBC tended to show this ad the most, sometimes airing it twice during the same break or show. During the premiere of A Christmas Story LIVE!, the ad played during every single break of the second half of the show. The love for the ad returned in the spring of 2018 when it was nominated for multiple Tony Awards. Speaking of overplayed Broadway commercials, this ad for The Lion King, alongside several variants of it, will always play before the start of Good Morning America on WABC, and this ad for Wicked tends to be the most common Broadway spot during the local insertion part of ad breaks on multiple stations, including cable channels. When the Frozen musical opened on Broadway, Disney wanted to make sure that people who lived near New York City knew that it existed. Ads would always play in the local spot on New York City channels, and on syndicated and/or local programming such as The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Dr. Phil and Eyewitness News, the ad would play on every single break. It even got to the point where Disney decided to do radio commercials for the show that played as frequently as the TV spots did, with said ads having been played since September of 2017, months before the show even opened! Each ad break for Saturday Night Live on the New York feed of NBC typically features at least two ads for The Book of Mormon. Other active musicals also feature during the commercial breaks, but Mormon is guaranteed to appear the most. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: During most season 1 episodes' premieres and during early reruns of the show, the same promo for Pound Puppies would air during the Credits Pushback, leading to one line in the promo, "Secret, but fun!", becoming a meme. During the premiere of "The Best Night Ever", the ad for the Gyrobowl kept playing during every break. The Season 3 premiere was flooded with commercials for Gak. At one point four GAK commercials aired in a row, and it didn't take long for the show's fandom to turn it into a meme. Later on, Gak ads aired twice in a row during the next episode, and ads for a similar product called Floam also aired twice in a row. The episode after that had four Gak commercials air in a row (again), then twice followed by two Floam commercials. This caused a small "Gak vs. Floam" war among the fandom. During the first airing of "Pinkie Pride" (the episode with "Weird Al" Yankovic's character Cheese Sandwich), commercials for Chuck E. Cheese aired during every break. Fans were quick to note the parallels. During the premiere of the series finale, most of the ads were shown more than once. The most notable offenders were this commercial for Ibotta and promos for Treehouse Masters, the series finale, and Worst Cooks in America, which were shown during every break. |

Roku TV is a streaming box-oriented live TV service known for its many highly specialized channels, which revolve around specific genres or even specific shows (for instance, there's a channel dedicated to nothing but the first 26 seasons of Doctor Who). Because of how niche these channels are, ad space tends to be purchased by only a handful of companies, and as a result, commercial breaks will sometimes be filled in by taking ads and repeating them as many times as possible to avoid dead air. On some occasions, a commercial break can consist entirely of one ad on a loop. | |

During the popularity of the Crazy Frog ring tone in the United Kingdom (where this trope is generally not as noticeable) an advertisement for the sound featured on almost every ad-break on some satellite channel, often re-occurring. This prompted large numbers of complaints to the industry regulator who responded saying that essentially they were in no position to stop a paid for advertisement simply on the grounds of repetition. (Later it was ruled, because of the nature of the subscription service the Crazy Frog was advertising, that it couldn't be shown before the watershed.) | |

A select number of Chicago-area children will think of Pokémon: The Series whenever they hear certain 80's songs (namely Simple Minds' "Don't You (Forget About Me)". Possibly others, too - the ad is hard to find), thanks to an infomercial for some 80's compilation CD that played during multiple episodes of that show during its tenure on WPWR (it spent a while in local syndication before Kids' WB! got the exclusive rights). In fact, the Repeating Ad practice (and the 80's compilation commercial) is briefly mentioned in this article (which is mostly about a short-lived Nestle product called "Magic Balls", but that's another story). | |

One broadcast of Jeopardy! on a St. John's area station played an ad for Campbell's soup featuring a cover of "Thank You For Being a Friend" from The Golden Girls three times. Another commercial notorious for running multiple times during shows is for Lester Lube (a local car oil change station). Ask anyone from St. John's to sing the Lester Lube jungle, and they will have memorized it after hearing it so many times over the last five or so years. The first version of the Lester Lube ad simply had a static photo of a road, making it a Kitschy Local Commercial. | |

During the December 5, 2019 broadcast of A Charlie Brown Christmas on ABC, this TJMaxx, Marshall's and HomeGoods ad played three times during the special. During the commercial break after the scene where Charlie Brown and Linus buy a Christmas tree, the ad played twice in the same break. During every single Christmas special aired by the network in 2019, this ad for Portal by Facebook featuring The Muppets aired at least once per special. On some specials, like Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town, it aired twice. |

Every television channel in the United States took the opportunity to promote Frozen II during every ad break on the week leading to its release. Some networks played ads for the film twice in one break! Ironically, people who lived near the Northern Panhandle of WV experienced the opposite, they barely saw it at all. |

For some bizarre reason, in November 2019 the YouTube ads played before most videos with Transformers content was an unskippable one for Oui Yogurt, making some jokingly wonder if Hasbro has a deal with Yoplait to use YouTube ads as a way to sneakily convince TransFans to buy yogurt. | |

In Swordfish, when one of the characters is stopped after cutting through customs, his lawyer claims that he "didn't want to miss Survivor." During one TV screening, the next ad break after this scene started with an ad for Survivor, even going so far as to show the film winding back to the line in the film. The result was this with only one ad. | |

During the inaugural airing of The Muppets All-Star Comedy Gala on the Comedy Network, a promo for the network's holiday programming (in which Santa crashes a family's house to the family's dismay) aired at the end of almost every break. | |
