A bump, when referring to television, is a short video clip displayed before and after commercials. Bumps usually contain a written message to the viewers, along with background music. However, bumps aren't limited to that. They can vary from short movies to simple nonsense.

One network that prominently displays bumps is Adult Swim, which usually shows messages before and after commercials. On Thursday, their bumps feature mail from the viewers, often asking a question (which can be responded to) or share a small anecdote.
