Desperate Housewives = Frames are slowed down?

I don't follow the show, but I walked into the room while it was airing a couple weeks ago and could not stop trying to figure out why every 15 seconds or so, the video frames seem staggered and/or they slowed them down? It was happening frequently and as I continued to watch, it became very noticeable to me, although it almost appeared that this quick "slow down/lost frames" happened during scenes that would hide it the best (during a dark shot and/or not during a close up dialog scene) . I then watched a part of another episode and saw the same thing going on. It only lasts around a second when it occurs.

Anyone familiar with what I am referring to as I am curious as to why this is happening technically? I am on the East Coast with Comcast if that helps.
Thanks.
