The studio suits want MORE REALITY TV, like "Big Brother" "Survivor" etc. They want the hip young KIDS watching and don't want anyone else. That's pretty much the 'scuttlebutt' around the business.
Television shows that have a narrative and are more expensive to film (all action based shows are more expensive than a 'talky' show that takes place in one location) are ALL endangered species right now.
I know this for a fact. A lot of MY work has been impacted because of all these execs moving into senior positions who LOVE reality TV like "MTV's Real world" and "Pro Wrestling" over everything else.
TV is going to suck even more from now on. Just curious. So a question to our younger members, how many of your peers fall into this vapid category of only liking reality TV shows that deal with 'relationship drama'? (like the Bachelor, etc.?)
