Does CUE Have Commercials?
Yes, CUE Broadcast includes commercials on many live channels, just like traditional TV. Since CUE gives you access to actual network and cable streams, you’ll see the same ad breaks that air on those channels. They’re not throwing their own commercials in though – no, not that I’ve seen.
However, the on-demand section is a different story — many shows and movies play with limited or no ads, depending on the source.
Where You’ll See Commercials
- Live TV: Ads appear just as they do on regular cable or satellite
- Sports & News: Expect standard commercial breaks during live coverage
- Some On-Demand Content: Certain shows may include brief ads before or during playback
Where You Might Not See Ads
- Many movies and older TV series play ad-free
- Some specialty content and global channels have fewer or no commercial interruptions
Can I Skip Commercials?
With live TV, you can’t skip ads (same as traditional broadcasts). On-demand content doesn’t always include ads, but when it does, there’s no skip button. CUE is designed to reflect real broadcast experiences while keeping the service affordable.

Final Thoughts
Yes, there are commercials — especially during live TV — but the on-demand side of CUE offers plenty of ad-light or ad-free options. It’s a small tradeoff for the amount of content you get.
