Abstract
Systems and methods are provided herein for delaying pause of the play of a media asset. This may be accomplished by a device receiving a command from a user to pause play of a media asset. The device may, in response to determining that the command was received during a sequence of action or a sequence of dialog, delay the pausing of the play of the media asset until the sequence has completed.
