“…have a purpose”

while i agree, and i’ll stop short of calling it hypocracy (maybe just irony at its best), lr currently has an author focused on trying to pull the web back to the station brand while you write this?

aloha!

Not that I’m against the writers (I’m not), but the networks should look into buying programming from other countries to fill out these upcoming empty schedules. There’s a lot of really great stuff coming out of Japan or Korea or England or Australia or wherever that would be all new to US audiences.

And bonus… a lot of the series are produced to dramatically resolve after X episodes, rather than artificially extended to drag on forever, as with most American prime time shows.
