Fans who tried to watch Impact Wrestling on Pop TV tonight were met with nonstop commercials instead of the scheduled programming.
Pop TV has apparently been experiencing technical difficulties at their headquarters, and the same 3 commercials began airing at 9 PM ET onward instead of Impact Wrestling. The issue reportedly did not effect the feed on the Fight Network in Canada.
TNA & Pop TV issued the following statements:
We understand your frustration. @PopTV ensures us they are working to fix the technical issues. We will update you as we are updated.

We apologize for the technical difficulty. Please stay with us. We will be airing the entire #ImpactWrestling event.

Fans took to Twitter when they realized they had been watching the same three commercials for quite some time:
