Was flipping through channels late last night and there were wayyyy too many channels just selling stuff. Everything, man! Cooking stuff, exercise stuff, beauty products, DIY tools... Is this a normal thing? So random -_-'

Oh, I kinda enjoy channel surfing through the sea of infomercials late at nights. It's oddly satisfying, with their rehearsed scripts and over-expressive hosts. Plus, I swear, some of those products... like, who even comes up with these things?

Many TV channels prefer to fill up their late night slots with inexpensive content in order to maintain a full day programming schedule - infomercials are a perfect fit. These extended commercials have a dual revenue model: one component is the station renting out the airtime, and the other is product sales. Moreover, people shopping late at night (when most infomercials are aired) often make impulsive buying decisions!
