True? Possibly. They do pour an awful lot of talent and work and money into just 30 seconds.

By design? Probably not. It's what is sometimes I believe called an emergent element; a new show of some length every week, while an individual commercial lasts for months or longer.

I don't often watch either shows or commercials, so this is not based on experience.
