Over saturation of commercials

Am I the only one who feels that movie studios and TV networks actually shoot themselves in the foot by airing the same previews 50 or more times within a couple of weeks??

There are some TV shows and movies that, the very first time I see a commercial for them, make me say, "Hey, that looks like something I might enjoy watching." But after I've seen the same commercial six or seven times a night, for two or three weeks. . .I'm just sick of it. I feel like I've already "seen" the movie or TV show and just want it to go away.

Haven't these people ever heard of the concept "less is more"??
