Watching the online player reminds me of tv when I was a kid, no pause, fast forward, etc. Hurry and do things during commercial, lol.

Hah, when a commercial comes on TV, guess what I do, I will click MUTE on the remote and then get up to do something! The only time I actually make an effort to watch a commerical would be during Super Bowl!
