What were you watching at the time of the commercial, and how were you watching it (which web-browser on what operating system, accessing which web-site, or watching Shaw Video On Demand on your TV) ?  How often?

> seems to happen randomly on netflix and regular tv.

What is your setup?

Coaxial-output from the wall-outlet to a coaxial-splitter to a Shaw set-top TV box, and a HDMI cable to your TV,?

Does the other "half" of the output from your splitter go to your Shaw cable-modem, and then wired (Ethernet cable) or WiFi to your Smart-TV, and then using the Netflix app on your Smart-TV?

Or, wired/WiFi from the Shaw cable-modem to your computer, then accessing the Netflix web-site inside a web-browser on your computer, and using the TV screen as the "monitor" connected via HDMI ?

no splitter, no wire comp to tv, just regular blue curve set up for tv.

@dmcleod -- no splitter, no wire comp to tv, just regular blue curve set up for tv.

So, are you selecting the Netflix TV-channel using your BlueCurve remote, or do you have a Smart-TV with its own built-in Netflix app, and a WiFi connection between your TV and your BlueCurve Total device?
