Re: GeekTonic`s Ultimate Fall TV Guide

I heard someone saw a suspect running from the scene carrying a fiddle. ;D

The whole issue boils down to the bottom line.  If a show doesn’t generate enough revenue in market shares, it becomes unprofitable to keep airing it.  The quality of the programming generally has little to do with it.  The networks love “reality” shows and game shows because they bring in large audiences and are dirt cheap to produce.

Whatever the reason, I’ve got to decide on my fall lineup choices pretty soon so I can program them to record.  I just found out I’ll be out of town on business the week of 9/20 thru 9/24 and I won’t be home to watch any of them.  When I’m stuck in a hotel room I tend to watch things like the History Channel and other general interest programs that I rarely take the time to watch at home.  Since a lot of the content is old black and white footage shot on small format cameras, I don’t miss all that much by not watching it on my 60″ Sony HDTV.
