List of commercial-free TV channels in the United States

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

An article with only two pages linked to it, and is unsourced, incorrectly named and the criteria is too broad to fit this catch-all piece where HBO exists with PBS and multiple religious stations, along with networks which have long gone to ad-supported. If you read this article more deeply most of these channels do have commercials to some point promoting their own works (TBN and Boomerang, along with the HDNet Networks), are premium channels, where you pay not to have the commercials present, or based on their format, cannot air traditional 30-second spot advertising but do advertise in other ways (such as Music Choice). Otherwise I cannot see a list like this being easily sourced.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 08:27, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. Trivial listcruft, and possibly an indiscriminate list at best. RobJ1981 (talk) 19:49, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
