I will give you a hint. Watch the commercials.

They will say "sponsored by.." or check the very end of the end credits.
Advertisers during the commercial breaks aren't necessarily "sponsors," they buy ad time. the more popular the show, the more expensive the ad time per 15 seconds.
A sponsor would provide funds directly to the production, advertising money goes to the network which the network will use to finance shows. I should clarify too that the network most often is not the one actually producing the show, that's usually an independent production company. So a sponsor would make a deal with the production company. If you're in the States, a good example is Slimfast on the show "Dancing with the Stars." Slimfast made an agreement with the production company, BBC Worldwide, in which they provided funding for a special segment that is incorporated in the show.
The commercials are merely companies looking to take advantage of a shows built in audience. So the people telling you commercials indicate sponsors are not entirely correct.
