Commercial-wise, they won't. Which isn't surprising since FS1/2, despite the assertions of FAR too many people, isn't actually any worse than it's ever been before in this regard. It was just as bad in the Speed days, and the Speedvision days, and all the days before it.
The FCC actually regulates the maximum time a broadcast can dedicate to commercials - and it has not changed for at least 20 years(IIRC, they can have 1 minute of commercials for every 2.6 minutes of programming). Nearly every broadcast in the US bumps up against this limit - one of the most notable exceptions, the NFL, actually PAYS the FCC for permission to exceed the limit at will - and they still rarely exceed it by a huge amount.
