I have the same problem with Irish TV adn I think the reason is the following

US TV Series are precut for commercials. When you e.g watch Star Trek you will notice that every ~5 minutes there will be a cut and the picture will fade to black for about 1 sec. This is were US stations would insert the commercial break. Comskip and Show Analyzer will search for these black frames and asume that they indicate the start and the stop of the break.
European stations usually insert the add break at a different time so Comskip's and Show Analyzer's add detection will fail. Another way of detecting ad breaks is to look for the channel logo which is usually not shown during commercials but afaik neither Comskip nor Show Analyzer support this (yet?)
