It is true, advertisements can be helpful, if done well. If there is a concert, they can advertise them in the building with the concert (or on a sign outside it). If there is a movie, it can be advertised inside of the building with the movie (or outside of it). If there is a new restaurant, it will have a sign, and you can see it if you are over there. A new restaurant may also be visible on a map. Any of these things will also be visible in search systems. In the case of movies, you might want to see a movie trailer, so showing them on TV is one way, but advertisements on displays within the movie theatre (or the same building as the movie theatre) can also do. However, some people will not want to see movie trailers for whatever reason, and would rather read reviews, or ask someone else they know who has seen it (or wait for them to tell you), or just go to see the movie if you like to see a movie (without considering trailers, reviews, recommendations, etc), etc; and movie trailers also can be deceptive, anyways. For other things, advertisements on TV, etc also might show them. There is also, consideration of advertising specifically of local businesses (and events); for some kind of things, such a thing is helpful. (For advertising TV shows, the physical location isn't as important, but advertising them on the same TV channel, may be helpful (although a TV guide would probably be more helpful than advertisements).) However, none of this justifies interrupting the shows to display advertisements (they could be displayed between shows), making them unskippable, wasting your power to display them to you against your intention, making avertisements deceptive, displaying too many advertisements (especially those with bright light outside), wasting power and light and sound on advertisements (especially outside), trying to put advertisements everywhere, surveillance, dishonest business practices, etc.
