Main Network Decay Discussion
TCM gets to keep the Heroic Aversion folder to themselves, they earned it. This is why the "Too Broad to Decay" folder was added. And unless someone can find an aversion that is equally heroic as TCM's stubborn refusal in the face of Executive Meddling, let's keep it that way.
Does anyone remember when HBO used to show movies? Seems like yesterday. Movies and stand-up comedy specials. The occasional concert. Seems like they almost exclusively show their original series these days. I might add this when I've had some time to look at it and I am not whacked out on codene.
Does the "this website" example really belong on this page, what with TV Tropes not being a network and all?
I went ahead and moved Cartoon Network to "Unique Circumstances". As soon as the network starts making a recovery, some executive decides to pump more live action programming in there for no reason. Even though every attempt has been a colossal failure. So instead of just moving CN from folder to folder it seems best to leave it in Unique Circumstances.
Under Retro Television Network's description, Equity broadcasting is said to have a copyright on their control distribution system. This shouldn't be the case - you can't copyright an idea or a method. Any manual describing the system would have a copyright, but that probably isn't what was intended. It sounds like a patented system, but I'm unsure - if anyone could find a relevant patent or any other clues as to what was intended, it would be much appreciated.
I've got a puzzle for you: if the History Channel did a documentary on the ancient past in which the History Channel had actual history, would it be true?
Cartoon Network's entry has a surprising tendency to accumulate Natter and ultimately irrelevant information (OH NOEZ NOT ANOTHER LIVE ACTION SHOW I MUST COMMENT ON THIS). The section has been streamlined to the four most relevant (and general) bullet points, with a comment asking people only to add information that is some significant departure to the channels current state (mostly new cartoons, with the occasional new, not as well performing live action series).
Also Adult Swim is in all but airspace a separate channel, and has been moved to "Major Shifts that Still Fit the Network's Name"
I understand that the general consensus on the internet on Sarah Palin is that she was not a very good politician, but the section regarding "Sarah Palin's Alaska" not only missed the point of the series, but seems to be more of a Take That tirade against Palin and her family.
In fact, I'd say that this show, out of all of TLC's other shows, seems to be one of the most "Learning" oriented: While it seems somewhat like a reality show, it is meant to be more of a travelogue of Alaska. As such, it doesn't really seem to add much to this article.
I'd suggest either making it less of an aggressive Take That or just removing it entirely.
Disney is starting to become Yoda. It's the oldest Cartoon you can think of, Yoda is the oldest jedi that's in any of the movies.
Which means... O_O which Star Wars episode is real life currently at the moment for Disney...?
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (And I Must Scream)!!!!!!!
History Channel: is it still slipped or has it gone into total abandonment territory? Even the topical shows relating to specific holidays or events are increasingly incorporating Dan Browning.
