how long is one commercial
But what I do know is that commercials come in a variety of lengths. When I was young pretty much all commercials were a consistent 60 seconds long. Which seems so short. But somewhere around the late 80's they started making 30 second and then even shorter ones.but I think most commercials are 30 seconds long now.But often a network when advertising their own shows at the end of a commercial break those are usually about 15 seconds long.ut what I do know is that commercials come in a variety of lengths.
