1. A method comprising:
detecting an interruption during playing of a segment of a media asset on a user device;
identifying a device that is causing the interruption;
comparing metadata of the segment with a user profile associated with the user device;
generating, based on the comparing, an importance score of the segment;
selecting by control circuitry, in response to the generating of a high value as the importance score, a selected action to perform, wherein the selected action is playing the segment from a position where the interruption occurred;
selecting by the control circuitry, in response to the generating of a non-high value as the importance score, a selected action to perform, wherein the selected action is skipping the segment and resuming playing the media asset from a position after the segment; and
in response to determining that the interruption has concluded, causing performance of the selected action.
