[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 430547, member: 27"] If they are cheap to produce, then it's easier to remain profitable despite lackluster ratings. This is why reality shows and game shows took over. Shows like [I]Lassie[/I] also prospered because networks felt obligated to offer varied programming for all age groups back then. Remember "the Family Hour"? Another factor might be the show's time-slot competition. You can have a hit show, but if it's against [I]another[/I] hit show on another network in the pre-VCR era, then your audience will be divided. [/QUOTE]
