While it is not my favorite site for broadway news, I do enjoy watching their videos but lately they have had the Next 2 Normal ads before each video. Don't get me wrong I love N2N and I would love to see it upset at the tony awards. THE best score of the year. But now I can't even watch videos. The ads keep replaying and replaying. I understand they are trying to promote themselves but I can't even watch what I want to. Anyone else annoyed or having this problem??

use mozilla firefox if you want to eliminate ads

tools
options
manage add-ons
plug-ins
then disable shockwave flash

you can always re-enable it by the same method

this won't help little video pre-view ads, sorry, but it helps a lot Updated On: 5/28/09 at 05:00 PM

Ads pay for this site. No ads, No BWW.

I understand that but do they have to play them in a loop when I am trying to watch a separate vide.

They really don't. I love the NEXT TO NORMAL ads. So simple, so stylish.

I also think the adds are very well designed and perfectly represent the show but the videos can't play instead those adds are repeated again and again.

I agree, it's a bit annoying to have to watch a N2N ad every time you decide to watch a video on Broadway.com.

It's not about whether or not the ads are good but the fact that they constantly pop up every time you go to watch a video is a bit annoying.

At least it's not a dinosaur growling every time your mouse accidentally goes over it...

I like the ads...but I don't like the bug in the system that makes them keep playing over and over again and not showing the video i want to see

Yeah this is getting ridiculous. I am annoyed by them too. I mean it'd be all right if they played it every now and then. But then they had to play it before every single video, and it got annoying...now it plays multiple times before each video IF it lets you watch the video at all (instead of just watching the commercial over and over).

I wasn't annoyed at first...but now they are playing 3 or 4 times before I play each video-so it's getting a tad annoying.

Love the show, hate the ads, miss the old Broadway.com.
