Julia, I really think you oughta go and buy a VCR now! :)
You can skip the commercials, and go the bathroom when *you* want, not when
the networks decide to interrupt the program and gracefully allow you a
pee-break.

Fast-forwarding through the commercials? Using the break to go the
bathroom? How dare you! You're not supposed to do that! You're supposed to
sit on the couch and watch those commercials!
